For the colonies, these new states opened up a lot of possibilities. For refugees who needed to flee the War of 1812 and southern farmers who wanted additional farmland, all these new states improved economic prosperity. The westward migration also contributed to the population reaching record highs. This event is a 10/10 rating because it added countless opportunities for the colonists.]]> 2022-11-14 01:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382031427 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382032787 Henry Clay advocated a new approach to improve America's economic growth. He would decide to impose tariffs. His idea was to utilize the BUS to stabilize the national currency and help the US economy. Internal improvements, such as the construction of roads and canals, would facilitate trade, commerce, and linking with other parts of the country. This event is an 8/10 because of the overall idea to improve the economy.]]> 2022-11-14 01:40:34 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382032787 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382047943 The Federalist party began a downward spiral that dragged the entire party down. This was following the aftermath of the War of 1812. This collapse was caused by the changing requirements of the nation's rising population, as well as the Federalist party's failure to fulfill these concerns. It was defeated in the 1816 election and ceased to exist as a result. This event is a 4/10 because it removed the entire Federalist party which causes less diversity and less of a democracy.]]> 2022-11-14 01:54:20 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382047943 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382059336 Voting privileges were gradually extended from white males who owned land to all white men. This advancement meant that the poor and middle classes now had a say in government. By 1840, 2.4 million men were eligible to vote. Due to the ability to vote for white men who moved to a western state, these new laws encouraged further western expansion. This event is a 10/10 because it promoted progression for the government and democracy.]]> 2022-11-14 02:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382059336 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382060094 Andrew Jackson invades in response to attacks into US territory from Florida. He invaded in 1817 and drove away the Spanish Governor of Florida in 1818. Spain was afraid that the US might occupy Florida, so it struck an agreement with the US for control of the state. The Adams-Onis Treaty resulted in the United States owning Florida. Part of the pact required America to relinquish any claims to Texas land. This event is a 7/10 because we gained a new state in Florida but lost land in Texas.]]> 2022-11-14 02:04:49 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382060094 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382066362 In an effort to control the rate of growing inflation, the Second Bank of the United States cut back on lending. Several banks were forced to close as a result of this circumstance, which raised the number of individuals who were declared bankrupt, unemployed, and imprisoned for debt. As a result of government foreclosures, the situation in the West deteriorated to the point where many people lost their land. This sparked growing hostility toward the BUS. This event is a 2/10 because it caused an economic crisis.]]> 2022-11-14 02:09:48 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382066362 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382086186 Missouri wanted to become a state, and the North realized that having slavery in Missouri would give the Southern states more power. The Senate maintained power equality by ensuring that neither slave nor free states had a majority over the other. To maintain the delicate balance, a solution was reached that would accept Maine as a free state alongside Missouri. This argument sparked a nationwide debate about nationalism vs. sectionalism. This event is a 4/10 because of the long lasting effects that would cause conflict.]]> 2022-11-14 02:24:31 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382086186 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382108665 Monroe declared that no European country has the right to occupy the Western Hemisphere further. Many European kingdoms recovered power after Napoleon's defeat in 1815. They sought to crush any more liberal movements and reclaim control of their South American possessions. This event is a 5/10 because it locked in the Western Hemisphere, but harmed our relationship with Europe.]]> 2022-11-14 02:42:49 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2382108665 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383735018 The Democratic-Republican Party was split by the election of 1824. Most politicians changed to supporting traditional Federalist beliefs, however, others stuck to concepts such as limited government. Because of their opposing viewpoints, two rival parties vied for government positions. Political stability and unity suffered as a result of competing parties. This event is a 3/10 because this is not a positive incident by any means. The party splitting could also have pros.]]> 2022-11-14 22:58:59 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383735018 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383735316 New York State saw the construction of the Erie Canal. This canal had numerous favorable consequences, such as connecting western farms and eastern cities. The success of the Erie Canal sparked several additional canal-building projects across the country, resulting in cheaper food costs, greater western colonization, and stronger economies. It stimulated significant economic growth in the region. This event is a 10/10 because I see nothing wrong with it.]]> 2022-11-14 22:59:31 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383735316 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383740016 In an attempt to restore the BUS, Henry Clay decided to introduce a BUS recharter bill in Congress in 1832. Jackson, on the other hand, despised the BUS and felt it was unlawful. Jackson vetoed the law, and he most likely had the government's money withdrawn from the BUS. Even though the elimination of the BUS caused a massive economic crash, the American people supported Jackson's decision and re-elected him, as president. This event is a 3/10 because of the economic crash.]]> 2022-11-14 23:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383740016 8708880 https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383747097 The Era of Good Feeling can be promoted as good but overall it was a subpar era. This is because overall the Era of Good Feeling has around an equal amount of positive events as negative with the average score of all events out of 10 being a 6. We have had extremely beneficial events like the expansion of voting rights. This is when voting privileges started to gradually extended to succeed in achieving equality. Although we have had good events we also have bad ones such as the "Panic of 1819." This is when in an effort to control the rate of growing inflation, the Second Bank of the United States cut back on lending. This caused banks to close down and the overall economic crisis. Despite numerous setbacks, America grew and flourished economically and politically during this subpar time period.]]> 2022-11-14 23:17:32 UTC https://padlet.com/8708880/4sub2xvuvb7svz55/wish/2383747097
