The document provides background information on the Oregon Country region west of the Rocky Mountains. It describes the geography of the region, including fertile soil and forests that attracted fur traders seeking beaver and other animals. Mountain men engaged in the difficult and dangerous work of trapping. Four countries initially claimed the Oregon territory but the US and Britain eventually agreed to share it along the 49th parallel. The fur trade declined in the 1830s as animal populations decreased and fashion changed. Former trappers then guided settlers along routes to the West such as the Oregon Trail. Missionaries also came to the region to convert Native Americans to Christianity.

How Did The Idea Of Manifest Destiny Help
Manifest Destiny helped drive America's expansion in several key ways:
1) The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 doubled the size of the U.S. by acquiring land from France. Explorers like Lewis and Clark explored and mapped the new territory.
2) Pioneers seeking new opportunities followed trails like the Oregon Trail in the 1820s-40s to migrate west, despite the many hardships and dangers of the long journey.
3) The Alamo inspired Texans to fight for independence from Mexico in 1836, helping to drive further western expansion.
4) Later purchases like the Gadsden Purchase from Mexico in 1853 finalized U.S. control from coast to coast, fulfilling

Dan Skuta Former 49ers Linebacker - Texas Ranching Early History
Former NFL linebacker Dan Skuta, who played for the San Francisco 49ers and Jacksonville Jaguars, enjoys learning about the early history of cattle ranching in Texas, which began in 1749 when the governor of Nuevo Leon brought settlers and soldiers to settle the Rio Grande river valley, an area that had not been previously inhabited by the Spanish, though establishing these early ranches came at a cost as the settlers faced many hardships forging a new life under threat of attack from hostile Native Americans.
Group Project #10
The document summarizes key events in the westward expansion of the United States in the mid-19th century, including:
1) The California Gold Rush beginning in 1848 which drew over 300,000 people to California seeking fortune and prosperity.
2) The ill-fated journey of the Donner Party in 1846, in which their attempt to take a shortcut led to being trapped by heavy snowfall in the Sierra Nevada mountains, resulting in cannibalism and many deaths from starvation and exposure.
3) The Oregon Trail, which was used from the 1820s-1860s by settlers, fur trappers, and Mormons to travel west to Oregon territory, encountering many hard

Nwmp & Treaties
The document summarizes the whiskey trade between American traders and First Nations peoples in western Canada from 1869-1874, and the events that led to the establishment of the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP). It describes how American traders introduced whiskey to First Nations at Fort Whoop-Up, fueling alcoholism and disrupting traditional lifestyles. The Cypress Hills Massacre of 1873, in which American traders killed 20-36 Assiniboine people, increased calls for law and order in the region. This led the Canadian government to establish the NWMP in 1874 to police the area and enforce treaties negotiated between 1871-1877 that transferred land ownership to the government.
Texas as a state & The Battle of the Alamo
The document provides background information on the history of Texas, including:

Bleeding Kansas
The document summarizes events in Kansas in the 1850s surrounding the issue of whether Kansas would be a slave state or free state. After the Nebraska-Kansas Act of 1854, many settlers moved to Kansas to influence the vote. Two votes were held but were plagued by allegations of fraud and violence. Kansas was ultimately admitted as a free state in 1861. The document also describes specific violent incidents like attacks on settlers at Fort Scott and killings led by James Montgomery, a leader of the Free-State forces.
Southern Plantations & Slavery
The document summarizes the impact of the cotton gin invention in 1793 and the rise of cotton plantations and slavery in the American South. It discusses how the cotton gin increased cotton production and led cotton to become the dominant crop. This caused Native American removal, the expansion of slavery, and the growth of large plantations dependent on slave labor to cultivate cotton. The summary also briefly outlines the harsh conditions slaves faced on plantations and examples of resistance like the failed Nat Turner rebellion of 1831.
Bleeding kansas
The document summarizes Bleeding Kansas and the violence that erupted between pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions in the 1850s over whether Kansas would enter the union as a slave state or free state.

James Montgomery was a leader of free-state forces who engaged in violent acts like pulling 11 settlers from their homes to shoot them and breaking a man accused of murder out of jail.
The jamestown colony
The King of England wanted to establish an American colony to increase England's wealth and power through trade and finding gold and silver. The Virginia Company founded Jamestown in 1607 as an economic venture, hoping to profit from exports of raw materials from the colony to England. The Powhatan people initially helped the settlers by trading food and introducing new crops, but tensions rose as the English settlement continued to grow and the Powhatans saw the colonists as invading their land. The system of government established at Jamestown was modeled after the English system and eventually became the Virginia House of Burgesses, the oldest legislative body in the Americas.
Jamestown And John Smith
The document summarizes the early history of the Jamestown colony and the role of John Smith. It discusses the founding of Jamestown in 1607 by three ships carrying English colonists led by Captain Christopher Newport. John Smith helped establish and lead the colony during its early difficult years, instituting policies that helped the colony survive. The document also mentions Pocahontas allegedly saving John Smith's life, attacks by Native Americans, and John Smith eventually leaving Jamestown after being injured.
Jump to freedom
Molly Jackson was a slave living on a plantation in Virginia in 1848. Slavery was legal and widespread in the southern states at this time, with slaves having no rights and facing cruel punishment. The Underground Railroad was a secret network that helped slaves escape north to free states and Canada. The American Civil War from 1861-1865 was fought over the issue of slavery, with the northern states seeking to abolish it and the southern states wanting to preserve it. The north's victory resulted in emancipation and the end of legal slavery nationwide.
The english in north america
Early English efforts to colonize the North American coastline met with little success. Settlers struggled to establish self-sustaining colonies due to poor soil and a lack of understanding of Native lifeways. Relations between English colonists and the Powhatan tribe grew tense as the colonists failed to grow their own food and instead relied on the Natives. When Puritan settlers later arrived, they viewed Native lifestyles as uncivilized and worked to reshape the land in the English image, which disrupted Native subsistence and led to hostilities between the groups. The Puritans ultimately drove out many Native peoples from the region through warfare and oppressive expansion.
Presentation on american slavery .11
This document provides an introduction and overview of American slavery. It discusses the introduction and rise of slavery in America from the 16th to 19th centuries, when 12 million Africans were shipped as slaves. The causes of slavery included the hot climate making Europeans rely on African and native slaves for hard labor, as well as the demand for slaves to work cotton, tobacco, and other cash crops. The life of a slave was described as working in groups on farms and plantations, with older slaves doing childcare. Abolition efforts began with the Northern states' anti-slavery campaign and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, and Lincoln later played a prominent role in fully eradicating slavery.
Unit 4 pp 1
England and Spain had disagreements over trade and religion in the late 1500s. In 1588, King Philip II of Spain sent the Spanish Armada to invade England but it was defeated, weakening Spain. England then began establishing colonies in North America but they struggled at first. The earliest colony at Roanoke Island failed after supplies from England did not arrive. The Jamestown colony, founded in 1607, also faced great hardships and loss of life in its early years until tobacco was successfully grown, providing an important cash crop. The colony survived and grew as the relationship with local Native Americans improved and more settlers, including women, arrived.
Past history
This document summarizes the history of the indigenous Chibcha people in Colombia prior to and during Spanish colonization. It describes how early Chibcha tribes like the Muzos lived peacefully as farmers and miners, making offerings at a secret lagoon. When the Spanish arrived, they killed thousands of indigenous people and forced many into slavery, though some committed suicide to avoid subjugation. The indigenous population only survived due to the need for slave labor during colonization. The era of independence brought changes after years of genocide and oppression by the Spanish colonizers.
Theme 5
The document provides information about Jacques Marquette, a French Jesuit priest who explored North America in the late 1600s.

The passage also details Marquette's final mission in 1675, where he correctly predicted his death the next day while visiting the Illinois tribe.
Manifest Destiny and the Mexican American War
Manifest Destiny was the belief that American settlers were destined to expand across North America. This motivated the U.S. to annex Texas and go to war with Mexico to acquire California and New Mexico. The Mexican-American War ended with the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, where Mexico ceded California and New Mexico to the U.S. in exchange for $15 million. This allowed Manifest Destiny to be fulfilled and the U.S. to spread across the continent to the Pacific Ocean.
Manifest Destiny, Monroe Doctrine, and Mexican War (USHC 2.2)
The document discusses how the Monroe Doctrine and Manifest Destiny influenced U.S. foreign relations and expansion in the 1800s. It describes how the Monroe Doctrine aimed to limit European colonization in the Americas and how Manifest Destiny promoted westward expansion as divinely ordained.

California history
The document discusses the history of California from the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848 to the Great Depression. It summarizes that the treaty ceded Mexican territory above the Rio Grande to the United States, including California, for $15 million. The discovery of gold in 1848 sparked the California Gold Rush and rapid population growth. During this period, about 1 in 9 men died on the journey to California seeking gold. Economic troubles during the Great Depression led many agricultural workers to flock to California, though wages dropped significantly.

California a history[1]
James Marshall found gold at Sutter's Mill on January 24, 1848, sparking the California Gold Rush. Thousands of people from around the world migrated to California seeking gold over the next few years, with most taking one of three routes: overland, by ship via Panama, or by ship around Cape Horn. The gold fields in the Sierra Nevada foothills, known as the "mother lode," stretched for over 200 miles and initially belonged to whoever could find it. The first transcontinental railroad in the United States was completed in 1869, connecting Sacramento to Omaha.
California
In mid-1850s, riots broke out in California when the sheriff sought to evict squatters from land claimed by John Sutter. During this time, many grants from the Spanish and Mexican eras were lost, as many felt this betrayed the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. In the 1860s, construction began on the ornate California State Capitol building. By the 1850s, the state established colleges, churches, and its first state prison at San Quentin. The completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1860 connected cities in the East and Midwest to California. In the 1870s, a bank failure in San Francisco caused a financial panic in the city. By the early 1900s, California was leading innovations in

Mexican-American War
The Mexican-American War occurred between 1846 and 1848 and was caused by American overpopulation of Mexican lands and Mexico's failure to uphold contracts with the United States. President James K. Polk wanted the war to justify taking Mexican lands to fulfill Manifest Destiny and prevent European colonization. The war doubled the size of the United States and resulted in the Mexican Cession, giving the U.S. new lands and Mexicans American citizenship, but also reignited domestic issues over slavery and caused turmoil in Mexico.

Hogan's History- Manifest Destiny
This document provides background information on Manifest Destiny and America's westward expansion in the first half of the 19th century. It discusses key concepts like Manifest Destiny, which held that it was God's will for America to expand across the continent to the Pacific. It describes how Americans migrated west along routes like the Oregon Trail and faced many hardships. It also covers events that contributed to Texas independence from Mexico like the Alamo and Goliad massacres, and the eventual annexation of Texas as a state.
Oregon Trail Notes
- The Oregon Country region attracted both farmers and fur traders in the 1820s-1840s. Farmers were drawn by the fertile soil and mild climate, while fur traders exploited the abundant fur-bearing animals.
- Mountain men, or fur traders, faced many hardships traversing the rugged Oregon Country, including harsh winters, attacks by wildlife, and occasionally conflicts with Native Americans.
- In the 1840s-1860s, thousands of settlers made the long and difficult wagon train journey to Oregon Country, seeking the highly productive farmland promoted in missionaries' tales of giant crops. However, the joint U.S.-British ownership of the region was increasingly challenged as the American population grew.
Group Project #10
The document summarizes key events in the westward expansion of the United States, including the California Gold Rush, the ill-fated journey of the Donner Party, and the Battle of the Alamo. The California Gold Rush beginning in 1848 saw hundreds of thousands of people migrate to California in search of gold. The Donner Party took a shortcut route that proved disastrous as they became trapped by heavy snowfall in the mountains, resulting in cases of cannibalism. The Battle of the Alamo in 1836 was a pivotal event during the Texas Revolution that saw nearly all Texan defenders killed after a 13-day siege, sparking further resistance against Santa Anna's forces.

Westward expansion ppt
Between 1801 and 1861, the United States underwent vast territorial expansion and settlement through exploration, acquisition of new lands, and westward migration of Americans. Key events included the Louisiana Purchase, Lewis and Clark Expedition, annexation of Texas, Oregon, and California, and the Gold Rush. Transportation innovations like steamboats and railroads facilitated westward movement. Native Americans resisted loss of their lands and were eventually forced onto reservations.
Manifest destiny map
Manifest Destiny was the belief in the 1800s that the United States was destined to expand across North America to the Pacific Ocean. From 1803 to 1853, the U.S. more than doubled in size through various territorial acquisitions like the Louisiana Purchase, annexation of Texas, and war with Mexico, gaining control of land stretching from coast to coast. This westward expansion was driven by both the desire to spread democracy and economic opportunities like the California Gold Rush of 1849.

Trailblazers
The document discusses Manifest Destiny, the life and hardships of emigrants traveling the Oregon and California trails westward in the mid-1800s, important landmarks and forts along the trails, and the tragic events of the Donner Party journey. It describes the 2,000 mile journey over 6 months that emigrants faced, crossing landmarks like Chimney Rock, Independence Rock, and South Pass. Forts like Fort Kearny, Fort Laramie, and Fort Hall provided supplies to emigrants. The Donner Party took a fatal shortcut and got trapped in the Sierra Nevada mountains in winter blizzards, resulting in cannibalism and the deaths of most members.
The 12 Key Dates in the American West
The document summarizes 12 key dates in the settlement of the American West between 1837-1890. It describes major events like the 1837 financial crisis that pushed people west, the 1848 California Gold Rush that greatly increased western migration, the 1862 Homestead Act that encouraged settlement of the Great Plains, the 1864 Sand Creek Massacre where hundreds of Native Americans were killed, the 1869 completion of the Transcontinental Railroad that reduced travel time and connected the east and west, and the 1890 Battle of Wounded Knee which marked the end of Native American resistance to U.S. control of the Great Plains.

It also outlines how the US gained territory from Mexico including California and the Southwest after the Mexican-American War from 1846-1848. Further, it notes how the Oregon Treaty of 1846 divided the Oregon Country between the US and Britain.
Westward expansion
Westward expansion from 1865 to 1914 led to significant changes across the United States. The discovery of gold in California in 1849 sparked the Gold Rush, drawing thousands of prospectors West in search of wealth. This period also saw the expansion of the cattle industry, growth of the railroad system, and an influx of homesteaders and immigrants seeking land and opportunity. However, westward settlement increasingly came into conflict with Native American tribes, leading to broken treaties, warfare, and the eventual confinement of most tribes to reservations by the late 19th century.

Prelude to civil rights in mississippi
The document summarizes the social and political climate in Mississippi from the Great Depression through the 1950s that set the stage for the civil rights movement. It discusses how the Depression devastated the state's economy and disproportionately impacted African Americans. World War II and related industries provided economic opportunities. President Truman supported civil rights, alienating Southern Democrats who formed the Dixiecrats. The 1954 Brown v. Board decision found segregated schools unconstitutional, sparking massive resistance from whites in Mississippi. The brutal 1955 murder of Emmett Till drew national attention to racial violence in the state. Lynchings were also common. African American leaders emerged to advocate for civil rights amid this deeply entrenched racism.

During the antebellum period between 1812-1860, sectionalism developed between the North and South as their ways of life diverged. The South's economy was based on cotton and slavery, while the North's relied on manufacturing. Issues like the tariff and the expansion of slavery divided the regions. Mississippi became the heart of the cotton kingdom due to innovations like the cotton gin. By 1860, slavery was an entrenched institution in Mississippi, defended on economic, religious, and racial grounds. When Lincoln was elected as an anti-slavery candidate, Mississippi seceded, believing states had the right to leave the Union.
Reconstruction
The document summarizes key events and policies during the Reconstruction era following the American Civil War. It outlines Lincoln's 10% Plan for Reconstruction, the more radical Wade-Davis Bill, and Johnson's plans as Lincoln's successor. Congress passed the 14th Amendment and implemented Radical Reconstruction. The rise of groups like the Ku Klux Klan opposed African American civil rights. Reconstruction ended in 1877 as federal troops withdrew from the South. Segregation and disenfranchisement policies replaced the civil rights gains of Reconstruction.
Events preceding the civil war(2325764)

Chapter 9 jefferson
This document provides a summary of Thomas Jefferson's presidency and key events during that time period including:
- Jefferson reduced the size of government and got rid of the Sedition Act as part of his "Revolution of 1800"
- The Supreme Court case Marbury v. Madison established the principle of judicial review
- The Lewis and Clark Expedition explored the western territories of North America with Sacagawea as an important guide
- The Embargo Act of 1807 was passed in response to British and French interference with American shipping
The presidency of john adams
The XYZ Affair involved failed negotiations between the U.S. and France, where French diplomats demanded a bribe and loan before negotiating. This angered the American public against France. In response, President Adams avoided war but increased military spending. He also signed the controversial Alien and Sedition Acts, allowing deportation of immigrants and imprisonment of government critics. Republicans like Jefferson and Madison opposed these laws as unconstitutional, laying the foundation for states' rights debates.
Troubles at home and abroad
The document summarizes conflicts in the Northwest territory and between France and Britain in the late 18th century, and the American response under President Washington. British forces occupied forts in the Ohio Valley and armed Native American tribes, who attacked settlers north of the Ohio River. General Anthony Wayne defeated the tribes at the Battle of Fallen Timbers, leading to the Treaty of Greenville that opened Ohio to settlers. The French Revolution began with popular revolt but descended into the bloody Reign of Terror. Though Jefferson supported the revolution, Washington declared American neutrality as France and Britain went to war, though both sides interfered with American shipping. The Jay Treaty resolved some issues with Britain but not others. Washington warned against partisan divisions and permanent
The birth of political parties
1) After the American Revolution, political factions formed between Alexander Hamilton's Federalists and Thomas Jefferson's Republicans over how to interpret the new Constitution and economic policies.
2) The Federalists supported a strong federal government, protective tariffs, and a national bank while the Republicans favored states' rights, farming, and strict interpretation of the Constitution.
3) In the 1796 election, John Adams and the Federalists won the presidency while Thomas Jefferson and the Republicans won the vice presidency due to the electoral process at the time before the 12th Amendment.

Chapter 4 section 4 2013
This document discusses the history of education in colonial America. It describes how Massachusetts was the first colony to have public schools, which were funded both publicly and privately. It also discusses how education differed between the northern and southern colonies, with the north having higher levels of literacy. Colonial schools taught subjects like religion, reading, writing and arithmetic using primers and hornbooks. The first colleges, like Harvard, were formed initially to educate ministers. The document also summarizes the impacts and key figures of the Great Awakening religious revival and the Enlightenment period of philosophy.
Chapter 4 section 3 2013
The document summarizes the history of slavery in the colonies from the Atlantic slave trade through its establishment and resistance. It discusses how approximately 10 million slaves were brought to the Americas over 300 years through the triangular trade route. Slavery took root in the colonies as the plantation system profited from slave labor and indentured servants were temporary. Laws were passed in the colonies in the 1600s that established slavery as a lifelong condition and restricted slaves' rights. Several slave revolts occurred, leading colonies to enact slave codes with harsher punishments and restrictions to control the enslaved population. African cultural influences persisted more on large plantations where slaves had less interaction with whites.
Chapter 4 section 2 2013
Colonial families had different structures depending on whether they lived on farms or in cities. On farms, extended families worked together and everyone had responsibilities. In cities, it was easier to live alone as a single person in a boarding house or as a servant. Men had authority over the household and women were expected to marry for economic and religious reasons rather than love, taking on domestic duties. Children also had household responsibilities from a young age. Colonial society was stratified, with social class determined mainly by land ownership. The upper class included wealthy landowners while the middle class comprised farmers and artisans. Indentured servants contracted their labor temporarily in exchange for passage to America.
