Mount Rainier Narada Falls

Visitors following the trail can enjoy the scenery and feel energized by the natural beauty.
California 1
The document discusses California's development of infrastructure in the 20th century to support its growing population. It focuses on California's water projects, which were crucial because much of the state is desert. In the late 19th century, Engineer William Hammond Hall researched water projects and established a framework for irrigation districts. Major dams, aqueducts and reservoirs were then built in the 20th century to bring water from distant sources like the Colorado River to the arid Central Valley and southern regions, transforming agriculture. These massive water projects took significant investment, technology, effort and coordination but were critical to enabling California's growth into a mega-state.
Latin America In 19 Sentury
The document summarizes key events in Latin America in the 19th century, including independence movements led by figures like Simon Bolivar that aimed for democracy and equality. It discusses the expansion of trade and economies in Latin America in the 1840s-1870s, as well as Britain's strong economic influence through investments and trade agreements. It also outlines the many political, economic, and social causes of wars across Latin America during this period, including disputes over ideology, territory, and resources. Specific examples highlight Mexico's path to independence led by figures like Miguel Hidalgo and Jose Maria Morelos in the 1810s.
Assignment 1 Nation Report
The document provides an overview of Argentina's geography, people, culture, and history. It notes that Argentina has a total area of 2.8 million square kilometers, with diverse regions including fertile plains, oil-rich southern plateau, subtropical northern flats, and mountainous western border. It describes Argentina's population of over 40 million as predominantly descended from European immigrants, and notes the cultural influences of European traditions as well as indigenous peoples. It briefly outlines Argentina's history from earliest human settlements over 11,000 years ago, through conquest by the Inca and Spanish colonization, to recent waves of European immigration and development of modern agriculture and institutions.
America Compared 2
The document discusses immigration to the United States from 1870 to 1920. During this time, the US transformed from an agrarian to an urban society due to industrialization and the need for labor. Millions of immigrants arrived from farms and villages in Europe, mixing native and foreign cultures. The sheer volume of immigration over this period from diverse sources gave the US a unique character unlike any other nation.
America Compared 3
The document discusses American imperialism at the end of the 19th century as the United States expanded its global influence and territories. While Americans were uncomfortable with calling themselves imperialists, their motivations and justifications for expansion shared similarities with European powers. However, American imperialism also had distinctive qualities, such as its commitment to republican institutions and goal of preparing colonies for self-governance or statehood. The document examines both the similarities and differences between American and other imperialist systems of the time period.
The Civil War
The document summarizes key events in the American Civil War from 1861-1862 in 3 chapters:
1) The early battles in 1861 resulted in some Union victories but also losses, lowering Northern morale. General George McClellan took command of the Army of the Potomac.
2) In 1862, Confederate general Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson achieved victories in the Shenandoah Valley while the Union had some successes elsewhere. The Seven Days Battles forced a Union retreat from Richmond.
3) At the battles of Second Bull Run and Antietam, the Union and Confederacy inflicted heavy casualties on each other, though Lee was able to retreat. Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, changing the war's

The document discusses the causes and global impacts of the Great Depression in the early 20th century. It notes that the US economy was hit harder than most other countries due to its wealth in the 1920s. Major factors that deepened and prolonged the crisis included war debts from WWI, agricultural overproduction, and nationalist economic policies. The Depression bottomed out in 1933, with high unemployment in the US and Germany. Roosevelt and Hitler both rose to power in 1933 and experimented with unprecedented government initiatives to stimulate their economies, though their approaches differed over time.

The document discusses the conquest and settlement of the American West by white Europeans. Both the American and Canadian governments forced Native Americans onto reservations to end their traditional ways of life. The settlement of the West was more violent in the United States than in Canada. Settlers confronted indigenous peoples, overwhelmed their cultures, and took their lands. The federal government limited Native Americans to small, isolated reservations to make way for white settlers.
Little Ice Age
The Little Ice Age was a period of cooling that occurred after the Medieval Warm Period, between the 16th and 19th centuries. There is no agreed upon start or end dates due to varying local conditions. It is characterized by three climatic minima around 1650, 1770, and 1850 separated by slight warmings. The effects included colder winters in Europe and North America, advancing glaciers that destroyed villages in Switzerland, crop failures and population declines in Iceland, and the disappearance of Norse colonies in Greenland.
