The pilgrims created the Mayflower Compact which was the first written government by people in the colonies. After the Mayflower Compact, there was a new document that was written called the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut. This contains some principles that eventually were applied in creating the United States government. Eventually, the Puritans came and wanted to correct the church of England in 1629. A man named John Winthrop lead the Puritans and called MA Bay Colony "City upon a hill". Thomas Hooker lead about 100 settlers out of MA Bay to Connecticut because he felt that the gvernor and other officials had too much power.

He also led the movement towards American Revolution. In 1754, he proposed a plan called Albany Plan of Union to unite 13 colonies for several purposes, but it was turned down by the colonies and the Crown. Ohio river valley was one of the disputed land areas. This war is a precursor to the Revolution. The 7 years war is very significant because it ended with the Treaty of Paris and it contributed to territorial gains. This relates to America and the world and national identity.]]> 2020-09-18 22:10:16 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/760431672 Great Puritan Migration (1630s) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/760677652 The Great Migration of Puritans was when 70,000 refugees left England for new world population increase of New England.  New England had town meetings that were a democratic form of government common in the colonies.

The first act closed the colonies to all trade except from English ships. The second act ensured that everything being shipped to the colonies from Europe had to pass through England so the goods could be taxed. The third act was a reaction to the general disregard of the first two acts. This forced duties on the coastal trade among the colonies and supplied customs to officials to enforce the Navigation Acts. During the Navigation acts, King George II revoked the Massachusetts charter, which allowed Puritans to take a charter with them and establish their own government in the new world, because colonists were refusing to obey the acts which lead to the anti-British ideas in New England. This is significant because it shows how the start of the trade and navigation acts lead to the anti-british feelings of the New world. This relates to America and the world and economics.]]> 2020-09-19 14:48:19 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/761004817 Triangular trade (18th century) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/761042642 During the Triangular trade, slaves were transported on ships from Africa to the Caribbean islands through the middle passage. For trade, African American culture included music, dancing, basket-weaving, and pottery making. So for trade, African Americans brought crafts and ideas rather than actual items. Molasses from the Caribbeans to Europe, and trade goods from Europe to Africa were also transported. This is significant because it started trading, but it also started the rise of slavery in the thirteen colonies. This relates to environment and geography and culture. ]]> 2020-09-19 15:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/761042642 Lord Baltimore (1694) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/761124381 Lord Baltimore was the founder of Maryland, which was a Proprietary colony meaning that the king gave land to proprietors in exchange for yearly payment.

This came to an end in 1692 when the colonists revolted and drove out Governor Andros. This is significant because it strengthened colonies from attcks by native american tribes.]]> 2020-09-20 00:37:59 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/761421441 Thomas Paine's Common Sense (1776) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/796121195 In 1776, Thomas Paine created a pamphlet that challenged the authority of the British government.  It used "common sense" and plain language that would appeal to the colonists. Thomas Paine argued for Democratic-republicans, who believed in an agrarian-based decentralized, democratic government. This party was created to oppose the Federalists who had supported and pushed through the ratification of the US Constitution. The Federalists were lead by Alexander Hamilton who was also the co-author of the federalist papers, which is a collection of 85 articles promoting the ratification of the US Constiution, along with James Madison who was the fourth US President and was hailed as "president of the constitution". Hamilton was also the first secretary of Treasury. Federalism is a system of government where states or provinces share power with national government.

This relates to Politics and Power and social structures. ]]> 2020-10-01 19:21:08 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/796121195 Constitutional convention (1787) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/807123476 The constitutional convention happened from May 25 to September 17, 1987. It took place in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was intended to revise the Articles of confederation but the result was the invention and ratification of the United States Constitution. The Constitution created bicameral national legislator which is a legislative body with two houses. Through the US Constitution, Separation of powers was created. Separation of powers is the idea of a constitutional government with three branches who would all have the power to check the other branches. The constitution also abolished slavery i the US. The abolitionists who were against slavery, said that slavery was unconstitutional. Even after this though, abolishment did not immediately happen in some of the states and instead emancipation laws were set in to gradually set slaves and servants free. The constitution caused assimilation after being written. Assimilation is the merging of diverse cultures into one. The constitution made a lot of new changes to law and government. It empowered the congress to carry out the Census, an official count of the US. It occurs every 10 years. At one point the constitution mentions the Cabinet in Article 2 Section 2. The Cabinet is the body of official advisors to the head of government. Another important part of the Constitution talks about nobody should be held to answer for a capital unless on a indictment of the Grand Jury. Indictment is a formal written accusation, charging someone with crime. This is very important because the US Constitution established America's fundamental laws and helped to shape the US. This connects to social structure and politics and power.

It was created to coordinate the military efforts of the 13 colonies in their insurrection, meaning rebellion against a political party, against Great Britain's rule, meaning. This was made up of colonial militias, who were groups of able-bodied colonial men that weren't properly trained in military, although the British did had mercenary's who were professional soldiers serving in a foreign army. They banded together in revolt against British despotism, which is tyrannic rule. This is significant because these armies fought for the American revolution and against British rule. This relates to America and the world and national identity. National identity is one's identity to belonging to one state or nation. ]]> 2020-10-07 04:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/809105023 The Northwest Ordinance (1787) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/809131918 This created the Northwest territory for civilians, which was the first organized territory of the US. A territory is a government organized entity that does not yet have full equal terms of a state. The land was to be subdivided by a grid and the basic unit of land grant was the township, which was a surveyed territory, six miles square. This was from lands beyond the Appalachian mountains, between British North America and the Great Lakes, to the North and the Ohio River to the South. This established the precedent by which the Federal Government would be sovereign and expand west. The Northwest Ordinance nullified slavery meaning that states legally invalidated slavery. This was decided by popular sovereignty meaning that due to the "rule of the people" who are the source of all political power , slavery had to be nullified. At one point, Britain annexed a region of this to the Province of Quebec. This is significant because not only did northwestern expansion happen and new, stable territories were being created, but slavery was starting to come closer to an end. This relates to Migration and Settlement and politics and power.]]> 2020-10-07 04:19:30 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/809131918 Republican Motherhood (1790's) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/809151728 Republican Motherhood was a predominant conception of women's roles before, during, and after the American Revolution. A republican mother was considered a custodian of civic virtue responsible for upholding the morality of her husband and children. Republican motherhood is significant because it shows that women did have at least some sort of role in the revolution, even back when women did not have as many rights. This connects to social structure.]]> 2020-10-07 04:32:11 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/809151728 Period 3 American Revolution (1775) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/811958284 The American Revolution was a war between Great Britain and America. There were many different events that occurred during this revolution and even before. At one pint, America was very Isolationist which meant that they were against taking part in foreign affairs through alliances or wars. Before the revolution, seaman from America were going through impressment meaning that they were forced into service without choice. This revolution had a lot to do with boats. Privateers, a private vessel authorized to capture enemy ships, were very helpful in the win of the American Revolution. This caused tension between Great Britain and the colonies. During this war there were blockades by the British of southern waters. Another important event was the stamp act, which was a boycott of British goods. The stamp act had stamp duty which is the tax on the export of good. The taxation was called protective tariffs, taxes placed on imported goods to raise prices. Something else that occurred was compacts. There were different compacts created like the Mayflower Compact. A compact is an agreement or covenant between states to preform a legal act. The US also dealt with economy issues like depreciation which is a decrease in value, as in the decline of purchasing power of money. Propaganda was important during the revolution. Propaganda was used to fight for the unity of the colonies. The US also had to deal with religious issues like disestablishment, separating state churches from their connection to the government. Envoys were being sent out during the revolution. These were agents sent by government on official business. Lots of fiscal policies were starting to occur such as the Whiskey excise tax. This was the tax on manufacture, sale, or consumption of whiskey.  Something else that happened during the revolution was inflation, which is an increase in the supply of currency relative to the goods available, which did lead to the decline in purchasing of power of money. One last interesting this from the American revolution was Witch-Hunts. These were investigations that were supposed to uncover dangerous activity but really they intended to weaken political opposition. These are all important parts to the American revolution because they all contributed to the win and they helped create America to be the independent country we are today. This relates to America and the world, culture, economics, and social structures.]]> 2020-10-07 21:48:10 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/811958284 Confiscation Acts (1776) baileytart https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/812552517 The confiscation acts confiscated the property of Loyalists.

This relates to economics.]]> 2020-10-08 04:14:19 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/812618802 (Period 4) Henry Clay (1824) https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/820514786 Henry Clay was a part of the Whig party, which was a coalition of anti-Jackson leaders and they were dedicated to the internal improvements funded by national government. Henry Clay proposed the Tariff of 1816 which was designed to help America's textile industry. He received electoral votes for president in 1824, 1832, and 1844. He was a representative for Kentucky in both state and senate house. He supported the American System, which had three mutually reinforcing parts. Clay was a part of the American Colonization Society which was established to help gradually end slavery by helping slave owners liberate their slaves and then transport freed slaves to Africa.Clay was also a part of the Missouri compromise which admitted Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state. It established a geographic line that determined whether new states would be added to the union as slave or free states. William Lloyd Garrison wrote about this and how he, who was anti-slaver believed that the anti-slavery community should not be a part of a political party. While this was happening, the Mason-Dixon line was created which was a line separating slave states and free states. This is significant because Henry Clay was the 2nd two party system founder, he also is a "compromiser" for slavery. This relates to social structures and politics and power.]]> 2020-10-12 03:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/820514786 Transcendentalism (1820s and 1830s) https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/822620220 Transcendentalism was a philosophical movement developed in the eastern US. The core belief is the inherent goodness of people and nature. There were two authors associated with this, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. Utopian communities are similar to this because they have similar beliefs oh perfection and harmony. While this was happening, the Hudson River school was created. This was a painting school that was inspired by romanticism this school mostly painted landscapes. Another idea that was created was polygamy. Polygamy was the pratice of having two or more spouses at one time. This is significant because it was a pre-industrial revolution, and market revolution. Transcendentalism relates to economy, social structures and culture.]]> 2020-10-12 18:53:46 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/822620220 Indian Removal Act (1830) https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/822653753 The Indian Removal Act was a law that provided for the removal of all Indian Tribes east of the Mississippi and the purchase of Indian lands for white resettlement. The Indian Removal Act was an Usurpation, which is the act of seizing power of someone without right. It was an usurpation because of the Monroe Doctorine, which made it so the Americans didn't have the right to take their land. The Act established a process whereby the President could grant land west of the Mississippi River to Indian tribes that agreed to give up their homelands. The trail of tears was a big part of the Indian Removal Act  as it forced march of the Cherokee people from Georgia to Indian Territory in the winter. A lot of Cherokee people died during this. Along with this was the Cherokee Nation V. Georgia. It ruled that "The conditions of the Indians in relation to the United States is unlike that of any two people in existence." It established a "trust relationship" with the tribes directly under federal authority. While all of this was happening, The election of 1832 between Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams was happening and the voters were introduced to mudslinging. Mudslinging is a form of promotion by tearing down your opponent. Mudslinging became big when Jackson initially lost the election so he continued to campaign due to suspicion of corruption. In this new campaign process he is rough & unpolished unlike Adams. Jackson tears down Adams. Jackson wins the reelection. These events are significant because the populations of Indigenous people decreased dramatically and eastern America was going through a very chaotic time. This relates to economics, migration and settlement, and politics and power.]]> 2020-10-12 19:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/822653753 Hartford Convention (1814) https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/833238041 The Hartford Convention was a meeting of the Federalists during the War of 1812. The convention opposed the war hawks, members of Congress from the West and South elected in 1810 who wanted war with Britain. The purpose of the meeting was to gain more power in government and to protest the War of 1812. The meeting actually ended in the Federalist party being destroyed. With the Federalist party now gone, this left only the Democratic party, this was known as the Era of Good Feelings with James Monroe as President. After the Era of Good Feelings was a result of the creation of the Whig Party in 1834. This is significant because it ended the federalist party and made many advancements in the government.

There was also the Tariff of Abominations 1828 (also called the nullification crisis) was a tariff with high rates that set off tension between northerners and southerners (sectionalism/sectionalist). John C. Calhoun was a South Carolina political leader that defended slavery and advocated for the doctrine of nullification.  Sectionalist South Carolina cared more about the south and its own self interests during the nullification crisis. This matters because tensions rose between NC and SC which had an impact on slavery. This relates to Politics and power and culture.]]> 2020-10-15 17:33:13 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/833321364 Panic of 1819 AND Panic of 1837 https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/833399451 The panic of 1819 was a financial problem that started when the Second Bank of the US tightened credit and recalled government loans after the price of cotton dropped. A few years after the Panic of 1819, there was the Panic of 1837. The panic of 1837 had another affect on the Second Bank of the US because of an economic collapse caused by Andrew Jackson's (who was incumbent) destruction of the Second Bank of the US. Andrew Jackson's constituents believed in greater rights for the common man. These Panics lead to a depression. While this was happening, something called Worcestor v. Georgia was occuring in 1832.This was a supreme court ruling that said that a state could not enforce laws on lands that weren't under state jurisdiction. This caused Georgia to not have the right to remove Indians. Andrew Jackson largely ignored this. Since Jackson chose to ignore this, judicial review had to step into place, which is the power of the supreme court to review the constitutionality of laws passed by congress. These events are significant because they were major economic crisis's to America along with some new perspectives on Andrew Jackson being made. This relates to economics and politics and power. ]]> 2020-10-15 17:51:14 UTC https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/833399451 Oregon treaty of 1846 https://padlet.com/baileytart/ryzziy7e4u2a45pa/wish/833735172 The Oregon Treaty of 1846 was created because for years, the U.S. and England had conflict over ownership of the pacific Northwest.

The canal revolutionized shipping in New York and opened up new markets, which is evidence of the Market Revolution. The market revolution the amount of new inventions created was prolific. For example, the cotton gin and John Deere. John Deere created the steel plow in 1837 which helped revolutionize farming. The market revolution caused many advancements like U.S. nativists woman working in factories, ending the cult of domesticity. It was also good for industrialization like internal improvement, the basic public works like roads and canals. The national road/national turnpike  was created which stretched from the Potomac river to the Ohio river. It had gates set up along the road which collected tolls.

There was also a nickname for the pro-confederacy Northerners, Copperheads. Free soilers from the Free-Soil Party and reformers from the Northwest met to keep slavery out of the territories. Another earlier anti-slavery party was the Liberty Party and they ended up merging with the free soil party in 1848. An opposing group was the fire eaters who were pro-slavery politicians from the South. Similar pro-slavery southerners eventually put out the Black Codes which restricted the rights of emancipated African Americans. There were also the redeemers who were largely former slave owners who did not like the republican program in the south. They wanted to redeem the south by taking back southern state governments.
