The American Revolution began as a result of colonists wanting independence and freedom from British rule. A key event was the Boston Tea Party in 1773, where colonists boarded British ships and threw 342 chests of tea overboard in protest of British taxes. The colonists also boycotted British goods to avoid paying taxes. This led to the Revolutionary War beginning in 1775 and ended with American independence in 1783. Thomas Jefferson was the primary author of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, which declared that the 13 colonies were free from British rule.

The American Revolutionary War was won through a combination of strategic military victories by American forces and support from European allies like France. Key battles like Trenton, Saratoga, and Yorktown weakened the British military position. Meanwhile, the Americans utilized local knowledge and guerilla tactics to offset the strengths of the British army. The entry of France into the war after the American victory at Saratoga turned the tide in favor of the colonists and ultimately led to British recognition of American independence in the 1783 Treaty of Paris.

The War of 1812 was caused by tensions between the United States and Britain over maritime rights and the impressment of American sailors. Britain and France were engaged in the Napoleonic Wars and interfered with American merchant shipping. While President Madison attempted diplomacy, harassment of American shipping and the kidnapping of sailors led pro-war factions to push for a declaration of war in 1812. The war ended in stalemate by the Treaty of Ghent in 1814, but the Battle of New Orleans solidified American national pride after the war.
The Louisiana Purchase
The document provides background information on the Louisiana Purchase and subsequent Lewis and Clark Expedition. It summarizes that in 1803, France sold the Louisiana Territory to the United States for $15 million, doubling the size of the country.

Lesson plan 3 final
Washington wanted the nation to remain neutral in foreign affairs for several reasons:
1) Europe was plunged into a series of wars following the French Revolution that lasted over 20 years, and the US was too weak militarily to get involved.
2) Maintaining neutrality was a difficult decision for Washington, as the US was allied with France, but supporting either side could draw the young nation into the ongoing conflicts.
3) In his Farewell Address, Washington advised future generations to avoid permanent alliances with foreign nations and remain free of foreign political entanglements so that the nation could focus on growing in strength without risking war.
Chapter 3, section 2
Thomas Paine's pamphlet "Common Sense" inspired many colonists to support independence from Britain by arguing for separation, citizen-made laws, and economic and military freedom. In response, the Second Continental Congress created a committee to draft a declaration of independence, which was formally approved on July 4, 1776 and announced the break with Britain. However, not all colonists supported independence, as some remained loyal to Britain while others stayed neutral.
Lesson plan 3
George Washington issued a Neutrality Proclamation in 1793 stating that the United States would remain neutral and not support either side in the war between France and Britain. This was a difficult decision for Washington as France was America's ally in the Revolutionary War, but supporting France could draw America into the ongoing European conflicts. Washington believed neutrality was the best policy to avoid war while the young nation grew in strength, as America was too weak militarily to contend with foreign powers at the time. His farewell address further advised future presidents to avoid longstanding alliances and entanglements in European affairs.

The chief goal of American expansionists in the 1800s was to spread "American ideals" and values by expanding U.S. territory across North America, driven by the belief of Manifest Destiny that God intended the U.S. to control the entire continent. Expansionists first emerged after the American Revolution and pushed for acquiring Oregon Country and other lands. Key events furthering expansion included the election of James K. Polk on a platform of acquiring Oregon and settling the border with Britain.
Louisiana Purchase
The Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States, adding over 800,000 square miles of territory west of the Mississippi River for $15 million. Facing financial troubles and the need to focus on war in Europe, Napoleon agreed to sell the Louisiana territory to the United States, easing President Thomas Jefferson's concerns about French domination in North America and access to important ports. The expedition of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark was commissioned to explore the new lands and report back to Jefferson.

George Washington was elected as the first President of the United States and provided strong leadership to the young country. James Madison kept detailed notes at the Constitutional Convention and helped the delegates reach compromises, which was important for writing the Constitution. Many Virginians migrated west and south after the American Revolution to find better farmland as tobacco farming depleted the soil, taking their traditions and cultures with them as they settled in new areas through passages like the Cumberland Gap.

Though some argued it was unconstitutional, the Senate approved the purchase, doubling the size of the country and opening the door to western expansion.
War of 1812_causes
The document summarizes some of the major causes of the War of 1812 between the United States and Britain. Key events included Britain's impressment of American sailors and seizure of American ships, which angered Americans and contributed to a call for war by War Hawks led by Henry Clay. Britain's arming of Native Americans, including Tecumseh's Confederacy led by Tecumseh and The Prophet, also increased tensions by threatening American settlers on the frontier. The 1811 Battle of Tippecanoe between American forces and Tecumseh's Confederacy further escalated tensions leading up to the War of 1812 declaration.
Becoming a World Power - World War I
The First World War began in 1914 and lasted until 1918. It involved many of the world's major powers aligned in two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Central Powers. The US initially remained neutral, but was drawn into the war in 1917 by Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmerman Telegram. After four years of costly trench warfare that saw new technologies increase casualties, Germany and its allies surrendered in November 1918. The Treaty of Versailles formally ended the war the following year.

The document provides background information on the French and Indian War (1754-1763), including:
- The key parties in the war were the French, British, and various Native American groups, who fought over land disputes in the Ohio River Valley.
- As a result of their victory, the British gained control of French territory in Canada and much of the North American mainland east of the Mississippi River under the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
- However, the war increased British debt and tensions with Native American tribes. It also united the American colonies in war but created resentment towards subsequent British policies like the Proclamation Line of 1763 restricting westward colonial expansion.
Westward Expansion and Sectionalism
Westward expansion between 1803-1853 led to the acquisition of new territories across North America through treaties, purchases, and war. This included the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, Florida in 1819, Texas in 1845, Oregon Country in 1846, Mexican Cession in 1848, and Gadsden Purchase in 1853. The expansion heightened regional tensions between the North, South, and West over the issues of slavery, states' rights, and the power of the federal government.

2. Acts of protest like the Boston Tea Party were met with British retaliation through coercive acts closing Boston harbor.
3. The First Continental Congress met to discuss problems but Britain did not change, so the Second Continental Congress formed the Continental Army and moved toward independence.

American Revolution
King George III began tightening control over the colonies after the costly French and Indian War, leading to new taxes like the Stamp Act that upset colonists. In response to the Boston Tea Party, the Intolerable Acts closed Boston harbor until taxes were paid. On April 19, 1775, the American Revolution began with shots fired at Lexington and Concord leading to the siege of Boston. In July 1776, after Common Sense made the case for independence, the Declaration of Independence was signed in Philadelphia, declaring America independent from Britain.

- 1. American Revolution By: Mimi and Jerry
- 2. Why it Happened • The American Revolution happened because the colonists wanted freedom and liberty to govern their own nation and country.
- 3. The Boston Tea Party In 1773, Parliament passed the Tea Act, which gave Britain’s East India Company the control on tea. Parliament believed that the colonists would pay the taxes if the tea was cheaper, but the colonists decided to boycott tea. Then, ships carrying thousands of pounds of tea set sail for the colonies. Three ships arrived in Boston Harbor in November, 1773. On December 16, 1773, about 150 members from the Sons of Liberty dressed up as Mohawk Indians. They went to Boston Harbor, boarded the ships, and broke open 342 chests of tea and threw it all overboard.
- 4. Boycotting To boycott means to refuse to buy something. The colonists decided to boycott British goods, especially tea. The reason was so they didn’t have to pay the taxes.
- 5. Quick Facts • The American Revolutionary War started from April 1775, and ended September 1783. • On July 4th, 1776, America declared independence from Great Britain. • On September 3, 1783, America and Britain signed the Treaty of Paris, making peace. • John Hancock was the first person to sign the Declaration of Independence.
- 6. The Declaration of Independence • Thomas Paine wrote a pamphlet called, Common Sense, telling the colonists that they should rule themselves. • On June 7, 1776, Richard Henry Lee, from Virginia, and said that the 13 colonies didn’t owe loyalty to the king anymore. • They decided to wrote a declaration for independence. • That included Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Robert R. Livingston, Thomas Jefferson, and Roger Sherman. • Thomas Jefferson was the main writer of the Declaration of Independence. • John Hancock was the first person to sign it.
