Westward expansion increased sectionalism in the United States by deepening divisions between the North, South, and West. The North favored industry, abolition, and strong federal government. The South relied on agriculture and slavery and supported states' rights. The West wanted infrastructure and federal aid for development. Henry Clay believed sectionalism harmed the country by prioritizing loyalty to regions over the Union as a whole.

(Lab14)_Biaxial_Interference_Figures_F12.ppt
1. There are three methods for determining the optic sign of a biaxial mineral using an interference figure: Biaxial (BXA) figure, centered Optic Axis (OA) figure, and off-centered BXA or OA figure.
2. For all three methods, the mineral is biaxial positive if the gray area between or outside the isogyres turns yellow when a compensator is inserted. The mineral is biaxial negative if the gray area inside the isogyres turns yellow.
3. The 2V angle, which indicates the strength of birefringence, can be estimated from the separation of melatopes in a BXA figure or the
Role of Rock Mechanics in Mining Industry : Applications in Underground Mining
This is the technical report entitled as "Role of Rock Mechanics in Mining Industry : Applications in Underground Mining". This technical report mainly focus on the fundamentals of rock mechanics and its role in underground mining. I presume this technical report provides you a fundamental knowledge of rock mechanics focusing mainly on mining industry.
Capillary pressure seminar final version
The document discusses capillary pressure, which is caused by the interaction between two fluids based on their interfacial tension and the wettability of the surface they contact. In a reservoir, capillary pressure causes one fluid to be retained in small pore spaces against gravity due to interactions at the pore scale. Understanding capillary pressure is important for reservoir optimization because it influences multiphase fluid distributions and flow properties. Capillary pressure can be measured using various laboratory methods to better understand these relationships and reservoir conditions.
Mineral exploration
Mineral exploration is the process of finding ore deposits to mine through organized prospecting. The most crucial part is selecting suitable areas based on geology and terrain to make exploration easy, cheap, and quick. Common exploration methods include geophysics using physical measurements, remote sensing using aerial technologies like satellites, and geochemical methods to identify anomalies within mineral deposit areas. The ultimate goal of exploration is the extraction and profitable sale of identified minerals, though there are risks from changing prices and weather conditions that could delay revenue generation.
Lincoln's actions ppt
Lincoln tried to preserve the Union during the Civil War in several ways:
1) In his first inaugural address, Lincoln pledged there would be no war unless the South started it, and his goal was to preserve the Union without bloodshed if possible.
2) He later suspended habeas corpus to arrest Confederate sympathizers.
3) He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which freed all slaves in rebelling Confederate states and changed the purpose of the war to one of ending slavery as well.
4) Lincoln also called for a military draft in 1863 to bolster the Union army.
Indian Removal
Andrew Jackson's policies regarding Native American removal inhibited the cause of democracy in three key ways:
1) Jackson ignored Supreme Court rulings that prevented states like Georgia from removing Native Americans from their tribal lands, undermining the system of checks and balances.
2) The Indian Removal Act authorized the president to negotiate removal treaties with Native Americans through misleading and coercive means, rather than obtaining genuine consent.
3) Jackson's forced removal of the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears, which resulted in thousands of deaths, disregarded Native American sovereignty and rights in favor of white settlers and the states' interests over the rule of law.

The document provides instructions for an activity analyzing the Gettysburg Address. Students will be divided into groups to create questions about the speech at different levels of complexity. Each group member will create one question, either relying only on the text, integrating their own thoughts, or requiring judgment beyond the text. The groups will then exchange questions with another group, and each member will answer one of the received questions. Upon receiving the answered questions back, each member will leave a comment evaluating the response to their question. The activity aims to develop critical thinking and deeper understanding of historical texts.
Causes of the rev. war
The document summarizes key British policies enacted after the French and Indian War and the American colonists' responses to them. It describes how the British passed laws like the Proclamation of 1763, Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, and Intolerable Acts to raise revenue and control the colonies. In response, colonists protested through boycotts, riots, and acts of civil disobedience. Tensions escalated over time as the British passed more restrictive laws and the colonists increasingly resisted through organized resistance groups like the Sons of Liberty.

Hw#24 sectionalism
Westward expansion increased sectionalism in the United States by deepening economic and social differences between regions. As new lands opened in the West, the North focused on industry and opposed slavery's expansion, while the South wanted to protect its agricultural economy based on plantation slavery. Henry Clay believed sectionalism was harmful to the country by dividing loyalty to regions rather than the nation as a whole.
Progreessive Era Chapter07
The document summarizes key events in the early 19th century United States that led to increasing regional economic and political differences between the North and South. The North industrialized and relied on manufacturing and trade while the South developed a plantation economy dependent on cotton and slavery. Andrew Jackson expanded democracy but also advanced the forced removal of Native Americans. Debates over states' rights and national banking increased tensions between advocates of federal power and states' rights.
Progreessive Era Chapter07
The document summarizes key events in the early 19th century United States that led to increasing regional economic and political differences between the North and South. The North industrialized and moved away from slavery, developing different economies based on manufacturing, trade and family farms. Meanwhile, the South's economy became primarily based on large plantations and the cotton industry, which strengthened its dependence on the institution of slavery. These growing economic divisions between the regions eventually manifested as political tensions around states' rights and the balance of power between the federal government and states.

Apush review-key-concept-7.1-revised-edition
This document provides an overview of Key Concept 7.1 in AP US History, which discusses the transformation of the US from a rural to urban industrial society in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It outlines factors like new technologies, the rise of large corporations, and mass migration to cities that drove this change. It also examines the Progressive Era response to economic instability and corruption, including calls for government regulation and social reforms. Finally, it covers the New Deal programs and expanded role of the federal government during the Great Depression to provide relief, jobs, and reforms to the financial system.
Unit 3 dbq Period 5
The document provides guidance on how to write a DBQ essay for the prompt. It outlines several key steps: read the prompt carefully, take a clear stance for or against the claim, analyze the documents by taking notes and underlining, brainstorm additional information, choose three categories for the thesis and body paragraphs, and write an example thesis arguing the "Era of Good Feelings" was an inaccurate label due to sectionalism, slavery, and nationalism within the United States at that time. The document then provides examples of information and analysis that could be included under each of the three categories in the thesis.
Compromises
The document summarizes key events that contributed to increasing sectional tensions between the North and South, and attempts by the government to address them. It discusses differences between the North and South on slavery and the economy. It also outlines compromises attempted, including the Missouri Compromise, Compromise of 1850, and Kansas-Nebraska Act, which attempted to regulate the spread of slavery but ultimately failed to resolve tensions. The formation of the Republican Party aimed to stop the further spread of slavery.
14-2 (us history)
To increase enrollment in the military, the U.S. implemented the Selective Service which required men between 21-30 to register for a potential military draft. Approximately 2 million men also volunteered. To increase war production without nationalization, the War Industries Board assigned factories to produce specific goods and provided additional funding to compliant companies. The government raised funds through higher taxes on weapons factories and corporations and through the sale of Liberty and Victory Bonds to citizens. To address the labor shortage, industries hired women and encouraged the Great Migration of African Americans from the South while also allowing Mexican immigrants to temporarily fill jobs.
Group 1--Shauntel, Ditra, Aaron, Jack
The document summarizes a presentation on how racial stratification and gender inequality are "moving targets" over time. It discusses the Great Migration of African Americans from the rural South to the urban North from 1910-1970 as they sought freedom and opportunity. It then explains how de jure segregation laws enforced racial segregation after the Civil War. Next, it outlines some of the technological, economic, and social changes that led to racial and gender inequality in the workplace. The presentation concludes by discussing affirmative action and how its goals and legal status have evolved over time.
Apush exam
The document provides an overview of key concepts and events in American history from colonization through the early 19th century. It begins by outlining seven key concepts for the APUSH exam and then discusses various topics related to colonization, the New World conflicts between European powers, the American Revolution, the early American republic, and the expansion of the United States leading up to the Civil War in a series of multiple choice questions and explanations.
Great Depression, its effect, and its consequences
The document provides background on the events leading up to and during the Great Depression. It describes the economic boom of the 1920s, but notes several industries were struggling. When the stock market crashed in 1929, it catalyzed the Depression. Banks collapsed as they lost money and people defaulted on loans. The tariffs made international trade plummet and deepened the crisis. Hoover took little action early on, though he launched some projects later. Unemployment soared as people struggled with poverty, hunger, and homelessness. FDR was elected in 1932 promising a "New Deal" and took bold action his first 100 days to stabilize the banks and boost confidence.
Freedom Economics
1. The document discusses the current state of the US economy and leadership role in the world. It notes that the US share of global GDP is declining and other nations are growing faster than the US.
2. It argues politicians and media focus on minor issues rather than strategies for economic growth, market share gains, and maintaining US leadership. Reporting should emphasize growth, competition, and corrective actions.
3. The solution proposed is to empower businesses, enact tax reform, limit the size of government, increase immigration based on business needs, fund the military, and provide limited social services while transforming other programs to investment funds. This would allow individuals freedom and economic independence.
New South Ms White
The Bourbon Triumvirate dominated Georgia politics from 1872 to 1890. Led by Brown, Colquitt, and Gordon, they sought to strengthen economic ties with the North while maintaining white supremacy. Their successes included lowering taxes and reducing state war debts. However, they failed to improve conditions for the poor, and education and prisons suffered. Rebecca Latimer Felton opposed the Bourbon Triumvirate for not helping the poor and for supporting the convict lease system. Henry Grady promoted the New South ideal of industrialization through the Atlanta Constitution and the International Cotton Exposition.
Ch 5 Political Parties
Political parties in the United States are decentralized organizations that operate at the local, state, and national levels. They nominate candidates and attempt to influence policymaking. While the two major parties, Democrats and Republicans, dominate national politics, minor parties can still impact policy debates. However, several features of the U.S. electoral system tend to reinforce the two-party system over time.

Day 3 clay calhoun webster and more
The document discusses the Great Triumvirate of Clay, Calhoun, and Webster who significantly impacted American politics between 1812-1850 despite none being elected president. It provides biographies of each member and their regional support. Key events of the Era of Good Feelings are outlined, including the Adams-Onis Treaty which gained Florida for the US and the Monroe Doctrine which warned Europe against colonizing the Americas. Sectionalism between the industrial North and agricultural slave-holding South is examined.
New Deal Impact
The New Deal greatly expanded the power and role of the federal government in society and the economy. It increased the number of government employees, acted as a "broker state" by intervening in the national marketplace, and strengthened new constituencies like organized labor, women, African Americans, and other groups that joined the Democratic coalition. Specifically, it grew the labor movement through legislation and organizations like the CIO. However, the New Deal still had limitations and did not solve all the problems of the Great Depression or fully overcome racial discrimination.
The New Deal Revision inc source questions
Here are three key points about the causes of the economic boom in the 1920s in the US:
1. The end of World War I provided a boost to the US economy. As European nations recovered from the war, they purchased large amounts of goods from American producers like food, weapons and supplies. This exporting helped fuel economic growth in the US.
2. Republican policies of laissez-faire and low taxes on businesses and individuals also contributed to the boom. With less government intervention and regulation, private industry and consumers were free to spend and invest more.
3. New technologies like automobiles, radio, and electrical appliances saw rising demand. Installment plans and higher wages allowed more Americans to purchase consumer goods, stimulating
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.
Hw#33 labor unions
Labor unions used collective bargaining and strikes to attempt to improve working conditions for workers. Through collective bargaining, unions would negotiate with employers to reach agreements on issues like wages, hours, and safety conditions. If negotiations failed, unions would call strikes as a tactic to put pressure on employers. However, early strikes were often met with violence from employers, police, and use of federal troops. Over time, unions continued to organize and use strikes to gain bargaining power and protections, such as the Wagner Act which legally protected the right to unionize.
Hw#31
Industrialization and urbanization in the United States had some negative impacts. Industrialization led to poor working conditions in factories and pollution from manufacturing. Urbanization resulted in overcrowded cities with inadequate housing, infrastructure, and public services for the large populations that migrated to urban areas for work in the late 19th century.

The document discusses whether late 19th century American industrialists should be remembered as "robber barons" or "captains of industry". It provides context on trusts, monopolies, and laissez-faire economic policies that allowed businesses like Carnegie Steel, Standard Oil, and J.P. Morgan's companies to consolidate power with little government interference. While some viewed the industrialists' tactics critically and called them robber barons, others maintained they acted as captains of industry by increasing productivity and jobs.

1. Separation of powers which divides government into three branches
2. Checks and balances where each branch limits the power of the others through veto powers and overrides
3. Popular sovereignty whereby the government derives its power from the people
4. Republicanism ensuring government is run by elected representatives of the people
5. Federalism dividing power between national and state governments
6. Supremacy of national laws and judicial review giving the national government authority over states and the Supreme Court power to invalidate laws.

Hw#4 mercantilism
Mercantilism was an economic system where countries aimed to export more than they imported in order to accumulate wealth. Under this system, colonies provided raw materials to their "mother country" since importing goods was discouraged. Great Britain passed laws like the Navigation Acts to enforce mercantilism and benefit themselves. However, they needed more labor from colonies to produce goods like wood and cotton. This led to the growth of the transatlantic slave trade, as slaves provided a source of free labor that could meet the increasing demands of mercantilism.
Hw#31 immigration
The document discusses three waves of immigration to the United States: Old immigrants from northern Europe between 1600-1850 who settled on farms in the Midwest; New immigrants from southern and eastern Europe between 1860-1920 who moved to cities in the Northeast and worked in factories and mines; and modern immigrants since 1965 from Latin America and Asia. It notes the reasons for immigration included economic opportunities, religious/political persecution, and the promise of freedoms in the US. New immigrants initially arrived at Ellis Island or Angel Island and faced inspections before entering the country. Their expectations of America contrasted with the difficult living conditions they encountered in urban tenements and sweatshops. The massive immigration during this period resulted in a population shift from rural to urban
Washington-DuBois-Garvey
This document discusses different approaches taken by Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Marcus Garvey to address problems faced by African Americans after the Reconstruction era. Washington advocated for vocational training and cooperation between blacks and whites to achieve economic prosperity and social equality. Du Bois argued for consistent advocacy of civil and social rights to ensure equal opportunities and safety. Garvey promoted the creation of black nations in Africa as the only solution due to overcrowding in America threatening African Americans. Students are asked to determine which approach they feel would be most effective.
Reconstruction
This document discusses the Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson (1896). The key details are:
- In 1890, Louisiana passed a law requiring "equal but separate accommodations" for black and white races on railway trains.
- In 1892, Homer Plessy, who was of mixed race, refused to move to the segregated car for black passengers and was arrested.
- The case went to the Supreme Court to determine if the law violated the 13th and 14th Amendments.
- The Court ruled against Plessy, establishing the "separate but equal" doctrine that allowed racial segregation if facilities were equal, which effectively upheld Jim Crow laws.
Lincoln's actions ppt
Lincoln tried to preserve the Union during the Civil War in several ways:
1) In his first inaugural address, he pledged there would be no war unless the South started it and that his goal was to preserve the Union and stop the spread of slavery, not necessarily end it.
2) He suspended habeas corpus in 1861 to arrest Confederate sympathizers and prevent rebellion.
3) He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, which freed all slaves in rebelling Confederate states and changed the purpose of the war to one of freeing slaves in addition to preserving the Union.
4) He called for a military draft in 1863 to bolster the Union army.
Slavery compromises
The document summarizes several compromises that were attempted in the United States in the 1800s to address the issue of expanding slavery into new western territories:
- The Missouri Compromise of 1820 allowed Missouri to enter the union as a slave state but banned slavery in territories above the 36°30' parallel, except Missouri.
- The Compromise of 1850 admitted California as a free state, organized Utah and New Mexico with popular sovereignty, and strengthened the Fugitive Slave Act.
- The Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 also organized the territories of Kansas and Nebraska with popular sovereignty, fueling tensions and violence known as "Bleeding Kansas" over the slavery issue.
Sectionalism
The document discusses sectionalism in the United States brought about by the westward expansion and the issue of whether new territories should enter the union as slave or free states. It provides discussion questions and tasks for students, including having them read positions from Calhoun and Webster on the issue and respond with a mock tweet agreeing with one of them.
Hw#26 abolition movement ppt
The document summarizes key aspects of the abolition movement in the United States, including the conditions slaves faced, Nat Turner's rebellion, and prominent abolitionist leaders and their efforts. It describes the daily hardships of slaves, such as living in poor conditions without rights. It also outlines Turner's rebellion and the increased restrictions placed on slaves afterwards. Finally, it discusses influential abolitionists like Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Harriet Tubman, and their roles in advocating for emancipation through newspapers, speeches, books, and aiding the Underground Railroad.
Homestead & pacific railway acts copy
The United States encouraged settlement of the West through two key laws:
1. The Homestead Act of 1862 gave land to settlers who farmed the land for 5 years, aiming to encourage migration. However, many struggled to meet requirements or afford keeping the lands.
2. The Pacific Railway Act provided land grants and funding to railroad companies to build a transcontinental railroad, linking the East and West coasts and facilitating migration. This increased migration to the Western interior but also brought challenges.
Hw#24 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered by James Marshall at Sutter's Mill near Sacramento. Word of the discovery quickly spread, with some 80,000 prospectors, called "forty-niners", traveling to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The influx of miners and settlers transformed California, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some miners succeeded in finding gold, others faced harsh conditions and discrimination, especially Chinese immigrants. The Gold Rush spurred major economic and population growth in California and the western United States.
Hw#23 the california gold rush of 1849
The California Gold Rush began in 1848 when gold was discovered at Sutter's Mill by James Marshall. News of the discovery spread quickly, attracting around 80,000 prospectors, known as "forty-niners", to California in 1849 hoping to strike it rich. The Gold Rush transformed California from a sparsely-populated territory into a major economic force, leading to its statehood in 1850. While some prospectors succeeded in finding gold, most failed and boom towns came and went as mining sites were depleted.
Manifest destiny ppt
1) Americans justified westward expansion through the belief in "Manifest Destiny", the idea that it was God's plan for America to control all of North America.
2) They expanded westward through various means such as treaties, purchases of territory like the Louisiana Purchase, and wars with Mexico which resulted in additional land acquisitions.
3) Between 1820 and 1850, 4 million Americans moved west, helping to populate and claim more of the western lands, furthering the cause of Manifest Destiny.
Mexican american war-causes (1)
The United States annexed Texas in 1845, which Mexico still claimed as its territory. This caused a border dispute between the Rio Grande and Nueces Rivers. Tensions escalated after U.S. troops occupied the Rio Grande, which Mexico saw as an invasion. In 1846, shots were fired between U.S. and Mexican soldiers, prompting President Polk to ask Congress to declare war on Mexico.
Indian removal
President Andrew Jackson's signing of the Indian Removal Act and its impact on Native Americans is examined. Students are asked to choose whether they want to hear from President Jackson defending the Act or from Native Americans explaining how it affected them. A political cartoon portrays Jackson and the treatment of indigenous people, and students are prompted to discuss whether the Cherokees were uncivilized and if Jackson should remain on the $20 bill.
Andrew jackson
Andrew Jackson advanced the cause of democracy in some ways but may have also inhibited it in others. He was described as a "common man" president who helped expand suffrage, but he also opposed the National Bank and centralized federal power in the presidency. Overall, the document discusses whether Jackson's presidency advanced or inhibited democracy in the United States.
