US History Ch 7.2
Thomas Paine's pamphlet "Common Sense" was published in 1776 and had a significant influence on public opinion in favor of American independence from Britain. It argued forcefully and in plain language that the colonies should break away and form their own government. In response, the Continental Congress appointed a committee including Thomas Jefferson to draft a declaration of independence. On July 2nd, 1776 Congress voted to approve the Lee Resolution for independence, and on July 4th they adopted the Declaration of Independence, which was then signed on August 2nd. The Declaration asserted the colonies' natural right to independence and listed the king's violations of their rights.
US History Ch 7.1
The First Continental Congress met in 1774 to respond to the crisis in Boston and agreed to continue boycotting British goods while preparing militias. In April 1775, British troops marched to Concord to seize weapons from the colonists, sparking the Battles of Lexington and Concord where the "shot heard round the world" was fired, beginning the Revolutionary War. The Second Continental Congress then met and appointed George Washington as commander of the newly formed Continental Army to defend the colonies.
TX History Ch 18.4
The document summarizes the effects of the Civil War on the Texas home front. It discusses how the wartime economy caused shortages of goods and how Texans adapted by growing more crops like corn and wheat. Slaveholders from other Confederate states sent their slaves to Texas. The Confederate government enacted a draft that was unpopular. Unionists in Texas faced persecution, with some violently attacked or lynched for opposing the war or draft. Life became difficult for civilians as martial law was imposed in some Unionist areas.
Loyalists Vs. Patriots
Two groups emerged during the American Revolution - Patriots who supported independence from Britain, and Loyalists who supported continued allegiance to the King. Loyalists tended to be older, wealthier merchants and landowners, as well as members of the Church of England. They made up around 15-20% of the white population. After the war, many Loyalists fled the colonies. Patriots came from a variety of backgrounds but were generally well-educated and wealthy, as well as ordinary farmers and workers who disliked British taxation policies. They argued the colonies were not represented in Parliament and Britain could not tax or legislate for them without representation.
Vietnam conflict day 6
The document summarizes key events and outcomes of US involvement in the Vietnam War under presidents Johnson and Nixon. It discusses escalation of bombing campaigns in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, as well as domestic opposition that grew in the US. Nixon pursued a policy of "Vietnamization" to gradually withdraw US troops while training South Vietnamese forces, but the ARVN failed to prevent a North Vietnamese takeover of South Vietnam in 1975 after US withdrawal. The war had lasting negative impacts in Cambodia, where US bombing contributed to the rise of the genocidal Khmer Rouge regime.
American revolution
The document summarizes major battles and events of the American Revolution from 1775 to 1781, including Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen's capture of Fort Ticonderoga in 1775, Henry Knox moving artillery to Dorchester Heights in 1776, Washington's defeat in New York but subsequent victories at Trenton and Princeton in 1776-1777, the failed Saratoga campaign by General Burgoyne that convinced France to ally with America, the British occupation of Philadelphia and American winter encampment at Valley Forge, the British shift of focus to the southern colonies in 1780, and the decisive American victory at Yorktown in 1781 with help from French forces, culminating in American independence with the 1783 Treaty
The Road to Revolution
The colonists came to America for independence and a new form of society free from English control. Growing tensions emerged between the colonies and England due to new taxes imposed through acts like the Sugar Act, Stamp Act, and Townshend Acts without colonial representation. This led colonists to claim "no taxation without representation" and sparked protests like the Boston Tea Party. In response to the Intolerable Acts, the colonies prepared for potential conflict by drafting declarations of rights and military defenses, culminating in the first battles of the American Revolutionary War at Lexington and Concord in 1775.
Turning points of war
Most colonists supported the Continental Congress and disliked British taxes, leading them to become Patriots who harassed and shut down the newspapers of Loyalists who wanted to remain under British rule. The Loyalists appealed to Native Americans and enslaved people for support. Key figures and battles in the Revolutionary War included General William Howe, the Battle of Trenton led by General Charles Cornwallis, the Marquis de Lafayette, Benjamin Franklin, and the winter at Valley Forge.

European allies like France and Spain joined in support of the Patriots due to Benjamin Franklin's diplomacy, though the Patriots faced many hardships like the difficult winter at Valley Forge with lack of supplies.
Loyalists vs. Patriots
The American Revolution was also a civil war, as colonists were divided between those who supported remaining under British rule as Loyalists or Tories, and those who favored independence as Patriots or Rebels. Key figures like Patrick Henry and Joseph Galloway advocated passionately for their opposing views on this divisive issue. Ultimately, the colonies declared independence from Britain in 1776 with the Declaration of Independence, but the conflict was not fully resolved until the Revolutionary War ended.
Day 1 ppt
After the costly Seven Years' War, Britain tried to raise taxes in the Thirteen Colonies to fund stationed troops, but colonists felt they had no representation in Parliament and protested British rule. In 1775, protests turned into open rebellion as George Washington led colonial armies against Britain. The following year, the colonies declared independence as the United States, launching the American Revolutionary War between Patriots who wanted freedom and Loyalists who remained loyal to Britain. Many Loyalists fled to Quebec and Nova Scotia, British colonies that did not join the rebellion.

England established political and economic control over the colonies following the French and Indian War by imposing taxes and strict trade regulations without colonial representation in Parliament. Growing colonial resentment led to protests like the Boston Tea Party and calls for independence. The Declaration of Independence, authored primarily by Thomas Jefferson, proclaimed the natural rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and declared the colonies independent states. This launched the American Revolutionary War between the colonists and British, which culminated in the American victory at Yorktown and British recognition of American independence.

It discusses factors that led to Confederate early successes, including stronger early leadership and adoption of a defensive strategy. However, by 1863 the tide began to turn as the North mobilized its greater resources and manpower and instituted emancipation, and the Union achieved some important military victories under Grant and at Gettysburg.
Secession and the Civil War
The document summarizes key events and factors surrounding the American Civil War, including:
1) The election of Lincoln led to 7 Southern states seceding and forming the Confederate States of America in 1861 with a constitution protecting states' rights and slavery.
2) Both sides faced challenges sustaining the war effort due to dwindling troop numbers and economic difficulties, leading to the implementation of conscription.
3) By 1863, the war was turning in the Union's favor as the North's industrial and population advantages overwhelmed the South, and major Union victories weakened the Confederacy.

Civil War - A Summary for Grades 5-8
The Civil War was fought between 1861 and 1865 and caused by economic and social differences between the North and South, disputes over states' rights versus federal authority, and the fight over the expansion of slavery. The war began when Confederate forces opened fire on Fort Sumter in South Carolina in April 1861 after South Carolina and other Southern states seceded from the United States. Major battles included Bull Run, Shiloh, Antietam, and Gettysburg, which was the bloodiest single day of the war with over 22,000 casualties in a single day. The Union prevailed after General Ulysses S. Grant utilized his superior resources and Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing slaves in Confederate states. Over 6

Ch 20
The document summarizes key events and developments in the American Civil War from 1861-1865, focusing on how the North and South prepared for war. It describes Lincoln's inaugural address calling for unity, the secession of Southern states, the attack on Fort Sumter that began the war, efforts to keep border states like Maryland in the Union, the balance of forces between the North and South, the failure of the South's hopes that Britain and France would intervene, and two diplomatic crises between the UK and US during the war over the Trent affair and the Confederate raider Alabama.
Causes of the American Civil War.pdf
The document summarizes the key events and divisions between the North and South that led to the American Civil War. It traces the origins of the conflict back to compromises over slavery made during the drafting of the Constitution and the development of opposing economic and political interests between the regions. Key events that exacerbated tensions included the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Dred Scott decision, Lincoln-Douglas debates, and John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry. This ultimately resulted in Southern secession after Lincoln's election in 1860 and the outbreak of war following the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter in 1861.

The Battle of Antietam in September 1862 was one of the bloodiest single-days of battle in American history, with over 22,000 casualties. General Robert E. Lee hoped a victory at Antietam might convince Britain and France to recognize the Confederacy. However, the battle resulted in a tactical standoff. Though inconclusive, it ended Lee's campaign in Maryland and halted the Confederacy's hopes for foreign recognition due to their inability to score a decisive victory.

The document summarizes key events and policies related to the American Civil War and Reconstruction era, including the Dred Scott decision, the Missouri Compromise, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, the end of the Civil War, Presidential and Radical Republican Reconstruction plans, amendments that aimed to protect rights of freed slaves, the rise of groups like the Ku Klux Klan, and the disputed 1876 election that ended Reconstruction.
Standard 15
The USA entered WWI in 1917 for several reasons: German unrestricted submarine warfare sank American merchant ships and violated free trade; the Zimmerman Telegram proposed a German alliance with Mexico against the US; and President Wilson hoped to make the world safe for democracy. When the US joined the Allies, it provided troops and supplies that helped tip the balance in their favor. The war had significant impacts on the US such as women entering the workforce, the passage of women's suffrage and prohibition, and the Great Migration of African Americans to northern cities. The Treaty of Versailles after WWI was harsh on Germany and contributed to the start of WWII.
Reconstruction era
The document discusses the Reconstruction era in the United States from 1865 to 1877 following the Civil War. There were three main plans for reconstructing the South: Lincoln's plan called for Southern states to form new governments when 10% of voters took a loyalty oath; Johnson's plan was similar but stricter; and the Radical Republicans passed laws overseeing the military reconstruction of the South and protecting the rights of freed slaves. The Reconstruction era brought both successes like rebuilding the South and establishing public schools, but also failures as racial discrimination and violence increased.

Civil war begins
In his first inaugural address, Lincoln addressed South Carolina's secession from the Union by stating that the Union is perpetual and that he would use presidential powers to hold federal property. Lincoln called on his "dissatisfied fellow countrymen" in the South to avoid civil war and remain united as friends, though passions may be strained. After the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter, Lincoln called for 75,000 militiamen from Northern states to serve for 90 days, which was eagerly answered as the Civil War began.
Process of secession
South Carolina seceded from the Union in December 1860 due to fears that a Republican president would limit states' rights. South Carolina cited frequent violations of the Constitution by the federal government and its encroachments on states' rights as justification. Not all South Carolinians supported secession. Some issued demands hoping to avoid secession unless those demands were not met, but radical secessionists prevailed. In February 1861, representatives from seven seceded southern states met in Montgomery, Alabama and formed the Confederate States of America, adopting a constitution and selecting Jefferson Davis as the provisional president. However, the new Confederacy faced many challenges with no currency, printing press, or proper government facilities in its early days.
Election of 1860
The 1860 US presidential election saw the Democratic party split between Northern and Southern factions over the issue of slavery. The Republican party emerged as the dominant party in the North, taking an anti-slavery expansion position. Abraham Lincoln was the Republican nominee, while John Breckinridge represented the Southern Democrats and Stephen Douglas the Northern Democrats. A fourth candidate, John Bell, ran as the candidate of the Constitutional Union party. The election was essentially two separate contests, one in the North and one in the South, with Lincoln and Breckinridge emerging as the sectional favorites but no candidate winning a state from the opposing region.
Civil War Part 4
1) Richmond, the Confederate capital, fell to Union forces in April 1865, causing the Confederate government to collapse. Jefferson Davis and his cabinet fled but Davis was later captured.
2) In 1864, General Sherman led 62,000 Union troops on a destructive march through Georgia to the sea, cutting the Confederacy in two, crippling infrastructure, and compelling an early surrender.
3) Abraham Lincoln was re-elected in 1864 on the Republican platform of continuing the war effort against the Democrats who sought to end the war. This election was pivotal in determining the war's direction and the future of emancipated slaves.
Civil War Part 3
The document discusses the Siege of Vicksburg during the American Civil War. Union forces besieged the city of Vicksburg, Mississippi for 48 days in 1863 to gain control of the Mississippi River. During the siege, inhabitants took shelter in caves and mules were brought in for food. On July 4, 1863, the city surrendered, severing Confederate supply lines. The fall of Vicksburg was a significant victory for the Union as it allowed them to control the Mississippi River. The document then discusses the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, where Confederate troops engaged Union forces but were defeated, marking a turning point in the war.
Civil War Par Three
During the Civil War, the South struggled economically due to lack of resources and industry, which led to inflation, food shortages, and declining morale. In contrast, the North's economy boomed due to strong banks and industries that supplied troops. African Americans served in the Union army and navy, with over 180,000 serving in the army. The 54th Massachusetts regiment was one of the first official black regiments and fought bravely at Fort Wagner, though nearly half were lost. Battlefield medicine was primitive, often causing more harm than good through infection, while disease killed thousands in unsanitary camp conditions. Prison camps like Andersonville struggled with overcrowding and lack of supplies, leading to many deaths.
Civil War Part Two
The document provides an overview of key events and battles in the early Civil War, including:
- The First Battle of Bull Run in 1861, which was the first major land battle and resulted in a Confederate victory over the Union.
- The Militia Act of 1862, which allowed African Americans to join the Union army, though they faced discrimination with lower pay.
- Important naval battles like the CSS Alabama raids and the duel between the CSS Virginia (Merrimac) and USS Monitor in 1862, which marked the beginning of the ironclad warship era.
- The bloody Battle of Antietam in 1862, which was the bloodiest single day in American history and resulted in a Union victory that
Slavery presentation 2020
Thomas Jefferson acknowledges the difficult situation regarding slavery in the United States. He states that the country has "the wolf by the ears" in reference to slavery - it can neither hold on to nor safely let go of its grip on slavery. Jefferson notes that considerations of justice and self-preservation are in conflict on the issue of slavery. The statistics shown indicate that the majority of large slaveholdings with over 50 slaves were located in the southern states, demonstrating the economic dominance of cotton production which relied on slave labor.
Era of good feelings 2019
The Era of Good Feelings in the US following the War of 1812 was characterized by a heightened sense of nationalism, optimism about the country's future, and reduced sectionalism and political divisions. There was a decline in political parties, particularly the Federalists, after their opposition to the war. The period saw economic nationalism through measures like tariffs and the Second Bank of the US, as well as judicial nationalism under Chief Justice John Marshall that strengthened the federal government. Territorially, the US expanded its borders through treaties like the Adams-Onis Treaty and asserted its influence through the Monroe Doctrine.
Bill of Rights 2019
The document summarizes the key rights and freedoms outlined in the first 10 amendments of the US Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights. It describes the five freedoms protected by the 1st Amendment: speech, religion, press, assembly, and the right to petition the government. It also discusses the debates around the 2nd Amendment right to bear arms and provides overviews of the 3rd through 10th amendments, including protections against unlawful searches and seizures, double jeopardy, self-incrimination, due process, and the reservation of unenumerated rights to the states and people.
Ratification Federalist and Anti Federalists 2019
The Federalist Papers were a collection of essays written in 1787-1788 under the pen name Publius to advocate for the ratification of the U.S. Constitution. They explained how the government would work under the new system and defended the Constitution against criticisms from Anti-Federalists. While Federalists supported the stronger federal government outlined in the Constitution, Anti-Federalists opposed it and wanted power to remain with state governments. To gain support for ratification, Federalists promised that if the Constitution was adopted, a Bill of Rights protecting individual liberties would be added.
Preamble Articles of the Constitution 2019
The document provides an overview of the key elements and structure of the US Constitution. It summarizes each Article, outlining the main powers and objectives established. Article I establishes the legislative branch including the bicameral Congress. Article II creates the executive branch headed by the President. Article III forms the judicial branch and Supreme Court. Article IV covers state relations and Article V lays out the amendment process. The summaries effectively distill the most essential information about each Constitutional component in just a few sentences.
7 principles of constitution
The United States Constitution was based on seven fundamental principles established by the Framers: popular sovereignty, where the government's authority comes from the people; republicanism, establishing a representative democracy where voters elect representatives; federalism, creating a partnership between strong central and state governments; separation of powers that divides government among branches; checks and balances allowing each branch to limit the others' power; limited government that restricts governmental power; and individual rights protecting citizens from an overly powerful government through guarantees like the Bill of Rights.
Constituional convention 2019
The delegates at the Constitutional Convention addressed weaknesses in the Articles of Confederation and made compromises between large and small states and northern and southern states. They established a bicameral legislature with representation based on population in the House and equal representation for each state in the Senate. The convention also addressed the issue of slavery through compromises, including counting enslaved people as three-fifths of persons for representation and prohibiting banning the slave trade for twenty years.
Chapter 12 1 & 2
This document discusses key issues around Reconstruction after the Civil War, including how to bring the Confederate states back into the Union, guarantee rights for freed black Americans, and rebuild the postwar South. It outlines debates around punishing Confederate leaders, granting voting rights and citizenship to black Americans, redistributing land, and establishing new state governments in the South. The document also summarizes the policies of Lincoln, Johnson, and the Radical Republicans toward Reconstruction and the resistance of Southern states to those policies through Black Codes and the rise of groups like the Ku Klux Klan.
To the Revolution
The document summarizes the key events leading up to and during the American Revolutionary War from 1774 to 1776. It describes the First Continental Congress agreeing to non-importation of British goods. The Battles of Lexington and Concord in 1775 marked the first military engagements of the war. In response, colonists converged on Boston and the Second Continental Congress assumed management of the war and diplomatic efforts. Thomas Paine's pamphlet "Common Sense" advocated for American independence, influencing public opinion. On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence.
Chapter 4 2 slide share
New British tax policies in the colonies led to unrest as colonists felt their rights as Englishmen were being violated. This included taxes on goods like sugar, molasses, coffee and wine. The Stamp Act of 1765 was the first direct tax imposed on colonists and sparked protests. While it was repealed the next year, the Declaratory Act affirmed Parliament's right to legislate for the colonies. Further taxes and acts like the Intolerable Acts closing Boston harbor in response to the Boston Tea Party increased tensions, leading the First Continental Congress to outline plans for colonial self-governance and economic resistance to Britain.
French Indian war 17 18
The French and Indian War was a conflict between France and Britain in North America from 1754-1763 over control of the Ohio Valley. George Washington was involved early on when he was sent to deliver an ultimatum to the French but was ambushed instead. Later, British forces gained victories starting in 1755, leading to the Treaty of Paris in 1763 where France ceded territorial control in North America to Britain. This expanded British claims but also increased tensions with colonists and Native Americans.
Colonial period
The document provides an overview of British colonial America from the initial European colonization led by Columbus in 1492 through the establishment of the 13 original colonies. It describes the different types of colonies (corporate, proprietary, and royal), the founding and key features of the New England, Middle, and Southern colonies, including their economies, religions, cultures, and politics. The colonies developed from efforts to establish religious refuges to commercial enterprises focused on exporting cash crops like tobacco, rice, and grain.
Fascism in Italy
This document discusses the ideology and characteristics of fascism in Italy under Mussolini. It describes how fascism celebrated extreme nationalism, subordinated all aspects of society to the state, and used violence and propaganda to gain support. Key aspects included a cult of personality around Mussolini and the state, suppression of opposition and human rights, and an emphasis on militarism, nationalism, and traditional gender roles.
