This event led to the freedom on the U.S. as a whole. As the whole world was in war  United States was given the chance to become a union. After the assassination of  Archduke Franz Ferdinand everyone was in tension. The war lasted a long time and many allies were formed. ]]> 2018-05-10 20:09:38 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259777414 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259781632 President George Washington was a very important person in the formation of this country. As the president of a newly formed country his job was very difficult. He had to create everything from scratch. All of the laws that we currently have are based of the laws that he created. Doing so Washington had to balance his opinions and the opinions of the people.]]> 2018-05-10 20:26:23 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259781632 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788746 President Lincoln was a major factor of freeing the slaves. I choose him to be my third most important factor to the count of how he made many changes of the United States. He was part of the union which believed that black people could have their own rights and shouldn't be slaves. He was also part of the civil war. The loss of him was very tragic to the nation as of since civil war had barely ended]]> 2018-05-10 20:57:35 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788746 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788806 Right after President Lincoln the civil war was another important factor of forming the United States. Civil war was the disagreement between the north and the south about many factors, but mostly about slavery. This war was very vicious and many battles happened in order for it to end. After the war ended there were many people who were displeased. Although through this war peace and unity was created in the U.S.]]> 2018-05-10 20:57:52 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788806 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788877 Sadly there was many people who didn't like that fact that the civil war had ended and that the north won. John Wilkes Booth was one of those people. He was a secret agent for the confederates. On April 14, 1865 he took it to himself to murder President Lincoln. Doing so he ruined any chance for president Lincoln to continue making changes to the United States as the President.]]> 2018-05-10 20:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259788877 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789051 The Industrial Revolution comes in 6th even though it was an important factor. The Revolution was the start of factories and large machine. This also began the start of women and children working in factories. During this time many tools that we use today were invented. This was a crucial time for the U.S. to grow and increase the economy.]]> 2018-05-10 20:58:56 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789051 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789211 Woman's rights are so important in the term to try and be treated equally to men. Not only because many women where the first to stand up to the government. They also took the stand to say that slavery was wrong. Also women tried to be so supportive. During the Industrial Revolution most men enlisted to go fight and women had to stand up to take the jobs to provide for their families.]]> 2018-05-10 20:59:34 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789211 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789324 Naturalization was a time in which the United States allowed immigrants from all over to enter. Many races diverged and mixed with each other. A lot of people came in through New York. They came in through large boats with seat depending on quality. This was a time when the U.S. had a huge increase in population. ]]> 2018-05-10 21:00:14 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789324 elizabethskky https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/259789594 https://www.history.com/topics/world-war-i/world-war-i-history

He created a light bulb and the phonograph. He was also a great businessman. By doing so he is credited today for helping to build America's economy during the nation's vulnerable early years. After Edison saved a three-year-old from being run over by an errant train, the child’s grateful father rewarded him by teaching him to operate a telegraph.]]> 2018-05-17 20:45:02 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethskky/a4z7lodx6h1f/wish/261743929
