German immigration to Kansas increased in the 1850s, with over 250,000 Germans emigrating during that time period. The journey was difficult, with emigrants crammed into small bunks on crowded ships for over 40 days, facing hazards such as fire and disease. Upon arriving in Kansas, many German immigrants claimed land through the Homestead Act and established farming homesteads, helped by land grants from railroad companies and aid from German immigrant societies. Newspapers published in German helped promote settlement in Kansas to immigrants, working to overcome Kansas' reputation as the "Great American Desert" by highlighting the sufficient rainfall for farming.

The rebecca riots
The Rebecca Riots were a series of protests in the 1830s-1840s by impoverished Welsh farmers against high toll fees on turnpike roads. As the farmers faced poverty and rising costs, they destroyed toll gates in protest. The government responded by sending over 1,800 soldiers and 70 policemen to restore order. Eventually a Roads Board was established to regulate tolls, which helped end the riots in Wales.
Virginia’S Slave Trade Part Ii
The document summarizes the impact of the Atlantic slave trade on Virginia from the late 17th century to the 1860s. It discusses how Virginia initially imported enslaved Africans but later became a major exporter of enslaved people to Deep South states. Richmond emerged as the dominant center for the domestic slave trade, with its auction houses and jails fueling the forced migration of over 250,000 people from Virginia throughout this period.
US History: Crisis and Revolution Lecture
The document summarizes the key events of the period from 1750-1780s that led to the American Revolution. It describes the crisis on the frontier caused by Pontiac's War and the Proclamation of 1763, which angered colonists and led to their protests against new taxes. This grew into open revolt against Britain, with important early battles at Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill. The colonists formally declared independence in 1776 and fought a long revolutionary war, which included Washington's crossing of the Delaware and crucial victories at Saratoga and Yorktown. This ultimately led to American independence being recognized in the 1783 Treaty of Paris.
Richmond’S Slave Trade
The document provides historical context about Richmond, Virginia's involvement in the Atlantic slave trade between 1690-1877. It notes that while Richmond was a small village prior to 1776, it later became a major center for the domestic slave trade within the United States as slavery expanded west. Beginning in the 1840s, Richmond dominated the exportation of enslaved people from Virginia with traders selling approximately one-half million people total over the decades. The largest traders operated jails and markets in Shockoe Bottom to facilitate these sales and temporary housing of slaves before transport.

American History Chapter 3, Section 2
Tobacco became the profitable cash crop that saved the Jamestown colony, but it was a labor-intensive crop to cultivate. Plantation owners in the South from 1690 to 1750 utilized indentured servants and enslaved Africans for labor, as indigenous natives had proved too difficult to enslave as they knew the land and could escape. Enslaved Africans were obtained through the triangular trade and endured the dreaded Middle Passage. Slaves resisted their owners through methods like faking illness, breaking tools, and working slowly, though rebellions like the Stono Rebellion in South Carolina led to crackdowns and punishment of slaves whether involved or not.

Richmond’S Slave Trade Strat 1009
This document summarizes Richmond, Virginia's history with the slave trade from 1690 to the 1860s. It notes that over 100,000 enslaved Africans were imported into Virginia between 1690 and 1775, with many sales occurring in Bermuda Hundred and Osborne's Landing near Richmond. While Richmond was a small village prior to 1776, it later became a major center for the domestic slave trade within the United States from the 1840s through the Civil War, with traders such as Robert Lumpkin exporting an estimated 257,500-300,000 people from Virginia during this period. The human costs of this trade were immense, though it provided economic benefits to white Virginians.

The french and_indian_war
The French and Indian War began as a series of conflicts between England, France, and Spain from 1689 to 1754 over territorial claims in North America. England and France both claimed the Ohio River Valley, leading George Washington to fire on French soldiers in 1754, sparking open war. The British captured the key French forts of Duquesne and Montreal by 1760, gaining control of most of North America east of the Mississippi River but also accumulating massive war debts. To help pay these debts and maintain control, Parliament began taxing the American colonies through acts like the Sugar Act, Quartering Act, and Stamp Act in 1764-1765, fueling colonial opposition and resentment.

This document provides an overview of western expansion and economic development in the United States between 1790-1860. It discusses the movement of settlers westward across the Appalachians in search of cheap land, driven by the growth of new machinery and industries. Immigrants from Europe and famine in Ireland contributed to population growth.

Frontiers of Change, 1865 1898
The document discusses westward expansion in the United States following the Civil War. It describes how the 1862 Homestead Act encouraged settlement by offering citizens parcels of free or low-cost land. The transcontinental railroad network expanded rapidly in the late 1800s, opening up the West to greater development. Cattle ranching became a major industry, with longhorn cattle driven north on trails like the Chisholm Trail to railheads and markets. Conflict increased with Plains Indians as settlers and the army seized more land, culminating in the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890 that marked the end of the Plains Indian way of life.
The adventures of huckleberry finn background info
Mark Twain's novel Huckleberry Finn has been frequently censored due to its portrayal of racial issues during the time period in which it was set.

America becomes an imperial power 2016
Farmers in the late 1800s faced economic hardships like falling prices and increased farm foreclosures. They organized groups like the Grange and Farmers' Alliance to address these issues and fight high railroad rates. This led to the growth of the Populist movement which advocated for policies like increased money supply and federal loans to help farmers. The Panic of 1893 exacerbated the farm crisis and strengthened calls for bimetallism over the gold standard. This divided the country between gold bugs and silverites and was a key issue in William Jennings Bryan's 1896 presidential campaign which advocated for silver. While Bryan lost, the Populist movement brought attention to farmers' problems and began a period of agricultural reform.

British North America 1763-1787
After Britain defeated France in the Seven Years' War, the Treaty of Paris in 1763 transferred control of New France to Britain. This led to tensions between the British, French Canadians, Native Americans, and the 13 American colonies. Pontiac's Rebellion and the Proclamation of 1763 drew a boundary line between Native and colonial lands, further straining relations. These tensions contributed to the American Revolution, during which Britain attempted to keep Quebec loyal through the Quebec Act of 1774. The war resulted in American independence but also established British North America as a separate entity, with many Loyalists migrating there after the war.

The American Fur Company
The American Fur Company was a relentless monopoly built in the climactic era of the fur trade. It was created in 1808 by John Jacob Astor, a striving German immigrant, in an environment so favorable that over vast North American territories it had more power than the fledgling American government.
In its time, this company shaped the destiny ofa young nation. It made Astor the richest American of his day. Yet by the 1830s its situation had so changed that it and the 300-year-old trade in furs collapsed.
ASTOR ARRIVES IN
A YOUNG NATION
In 1763 Astor was born to a butcher and his wife in the German village of Waldorf. In childhood he met hardship. The family was poor and often hungry, his mother died and a new step-mother was hostile. He spent much time alone but grew into a strong, diligent young man. Finding no joy in his father’s butchering work, at the age of 15 he left the village for London, working four years there to save money for an ocean voyage to the New World. In
1783, at the age of 20, with no education, little money, and speaking poor English, he set sail on a merchant ship. During the long voyage, a fur trader taught him how to appraise and handle skins.

At this time, the fur trade on the North American continent was almost 300 years old. It had begun early in the sixteenth century after Spanish and

US Expansion
The document summarizes key developments in America from the 1860s to 1900, including the growth of cities and industries, increased immigration, and social pressures. It discusses the rise of mining, cattle ranching, and transcontinental railroads, as well as conflicts over land with Native American tribes and the near-extinction of the American bison.
Economics Vestiges of Enslavement darc 2018
This document discusses how African people and their intellectual and economic contributions developed Europe and the Americas over hundreds of years. It describes how the transatlantic slave trade removed an estimated 40 million Africans from their homeland and transported them to the Americas, where they were forced into unpaid labor that generated massive profits and drove the economic growth and industrialization of many nations. Key industries like banking, insurance, railroads, newspapers, universities, and cities like New York directly benefited from the slave trade and subsequent slave labor. The document also discusses how European colonial powers destabilized African societies through unequal trade, introducing guns, and how racism was constructed to justify the exploitation of Africans.

Westward Expansion
From the inception of the United States, the western frontier had been imbued with freedom and opportunity in the American mind as well as in the minds of many Europeans. The western frontier seemed to offer what the east coast and Western Europe did not by the mid-1800s: Land. Historically speaking, land signified empowerment. Land represented independence and opportunity, namely the possibility of becoming a truly “free man” through self-management, self-sufficiency, and claiming and benefitting fully from the product of one’s own labor.
Land figured prominently into the high ideals with which the American Revolution and Early Republic were imbued. For, to be a republic- for, by, and of the people, the United States would need to be a nation of truly free people. The United States seemed to have land enough to make this possible.
Empire of Liberty:
Inspired by republican notions of freedom, Thomas Jefferson had looked west and envisioned an “Empire of Liberty,” comprised of independent, self-sufficient, and self-managing small farmers.
Jefferson perceived agriculture as not just conducive to freedom but also uniquely virtuous. By contrast, he viewed the owning, investing, and banking class as corrupt and waged laborers as degraded, dependent and unfree.
Jefferson believed that by securing the western lands, the United States could better secure itself as a free republic and avoid the fate of industrial Britain: Armies of unfree wage-workers, “dark, satanic mills,” and urban slums.
Introduction
Inspired by republican notions of freedom and pushed by members of the working-class struggle and their abolitionist allies, the radical Republican Party of Lincoln passed the Homestead Act even as the Civil War entered its second year on the East Coast.
Homestead Act (1862)
Offered at least 160 acres of free western land to those who filed a claim, lived on the land for at least 5 years, and made improvements.
Open to anyone who had not taken up arms for the Confederacy, including women, blacks, and immigrants who had applied for citizenship
Goal: Rooted in republican notions of freedom, it intended to provide laboring people with land and, by extension, an opportunity to work their way into a condition of real freedom. It would be comparable to Washington DC, today, giving citizens the capital and resources needed to start a small business.
After being stalled by the southern states for years, the Pacific Railway Act also became passed by the Republicans as the war grinded on between the states in the east.
Pacific Railway Act: (1862)
The US government allocated unprecedent funds, grants, bonds and free land for the purpose of contracting with private capitalists to build a Transcontinental Railroad.

1) The document discusses the history of the American colonies from the 17th-18th centuries, including the consolidation of colonies into the Dominion of New England under King James II and increasing tensions over taxation.
2) It describes the compromise between imperial power and colonial autonomy that held until the 1760s crisis, and how trade developed complexly within the British Empire.
3) The Great Awakening religious revivals of the 1730s-40s emphasized emotional conversion and spread Christianity more widely, though revivalists wanted to convert all races and statuses.
Lecture 4 moving toward revolution
The document provides context on the growing tensions between the British colonies in North America and Britain in the period leading up to the American Revolution from 1750-1776. It discusses several key factors that contributed to the colonists' readiness to revolt, including increased taxation without representation following the French and Indian War, acts like the Stamp Act, and Britain's attempts to reassert control over the colonies. It also mentions various protest movements by colonists, such as boycotts led by groups like the Sons of Liberty, culminating in the Boston Tea Party in 1773.
The great transcontinental migration
Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1861 and signed the Pacific Railroad Act in 1862, which directed the construction of the first transcontinental railroad across the United States. The railroad was built between 1863 to 1869 by thousands of Irish, Chinese, and black workers and connected the Union Pacific Railroad in Omaha, Nebraska to the Central Pacific Railroad in Sacramento, California. The completion of the railroad in 1869 transformed the United States by enabling mass migration westward and the growth of towns and cities along the rail line, including Cheyenne, Wyoming and San Francisco, California.
