Women's rights were limited in the 1800s because they couldn't vote. The Seneca Falls Convention was a convention that were women and even men came to talk about women's rights. This Convention helped create an organized campaign for women's rights. A way that abolitionist tried to use to end slavery was by trying to encourage slaves to revolt, and another way would be that they would use posters for propaganda. Leaders of the abolitionist movement would be Frederick Douglass, women, and William Lloyd Garrison. The goal of the Temperance movement was to stop people from getting drunk from alcohol.

Manifest Destiny was the belief that the U.S had a right given by God that allowed us to expand across the whole continent. We got Texas by first Mexico let settlers go to Texas but none of the settlers obeyed the laws so Mexico just closed the border. Then congress declared it as an independent from Mexico after that the state wanted to be in the union but nobody liked this idea so it was admitted as a state, but wasn't slave or a union state. The Oregon Territory was gained by a compromise between the U.S and Britain. During this compromise we got the bottom half and Britain got the top half of the territory. The boundary was on 49 degree latitude line. The Mexican Cession was a huge part of land that we gained from winning the Mexican American war we also paid 15 million for the territory. The Gadsden Purchase was a small piece of land that was needed for the transcontinental railroad. We also paid 5 million for the piece of land. A group of westward settlers would be the Mountain Men. These people traveled west so that they could hunt for furs to make money. Another reason why they traveled west was they would trap a bunch of animals and then sell them for even more money. Finally, the last reason was to trade with other people like native americans. Below is a picture a mountain man

The working conditions of slaves was very harsh. For example slaves would have to work almost all day in extremely hot conditions. Another working condition would be the poor safety. For example some slaves would have to wear no shoes or clothes and sometimes not have water for hours. The living conditions of slaves was really bad to because slaves were cramped up in a small wooden shack were the men would be chained up all night and the women would sleep on the floor. You were also given very poor clothing as a slave. The way plantation owners controlled slaves was by whipping them which was very harsh and cruel. Another way slaves were controlled was by beating the slaves when they ran away. During Nat Turners Rebellion  a group of slaves rebelled and started to kill a bunch of slave  owner families and continued to due this until they were finally stopped.

Sectionalism is the when a region or culture believes in certain beliefs that mainly benefit themselves. One major difference between the North and The South would be about how they transport things.

Another difference between the North and the South would be their beliefs on slavery. For example slavery in the North was abolished because people there believed that it was against the U.S constitution.
