It was inevitable and unavoidable that violence and dispossession were outcomes of the centuries-long confirmation of Native Americans with European settlers and their American descendants. European settlers were relentless whenever they were introduced to things that were appealing to their eye. If they wanted it, then they would go get it due to the superior mindset of the Europeans.

Under President Monroe’s presidency, the War of 1812 broke out and was ended through the Treaty of Ghent in 1812. News of the end of the war didn’t reach America until 2 weeks later so the Battle of New Orleans occurred and it consisted of Andrew Jackson defending New Orleans because the British was intending to snatch the city and hopefully divide Louisiana from the US. Jackson's army would end up killing 2,000 British soldiers including the chief. Jackson’s army didn’t have many casualties as only 8 of his soldiers died. This victory caused Americans to be happy and proud since throughout the War of 1812 there was just disappointments occurring. This victory would therefore start the Era of Good Feelings as people would be proud and would show it through things such establishing the National flag with stars resembling the states and the stripes that would resemble the original 13 colonies.

After 1815, a women’s status in society was shaped both by the “market revolution” and the “Second Great Awakening”. The “market revolution” was a drastic change in the nation's economy through transportation, education, legal reforms. Examples of these reforms would include the creation of canals, roads, railroads, and the technology needed to commute between places, an increase in teacher wages, school terms, and curriculum, and the spreading awareness of massive movements such as the temperance, abolitionist, and prison reform movement. The “Second Great Awakening” was a revival of religious spirit that attracted social minorities, such as women, African-Americans,and native Americans, that produced many new sects of Protestantism, such

People in authority tend to disregard those who and that which does not benefit them, since the poor did not seem to benefit anybody, people in authority found them useless. For instance, Emperor Charles V wrote an imperial decree for the Netherlands in 1531, where he stated that alms should not be given freely to the Europeans living in poverty, in doing so not only does he believe they will fall into idleness but he thinks they will take advantage of this and live their lives based off of alms, and that it will soon lead to all evils (document 2). He states that “beggars and their children will abandon their trade or occupation for a wicked and contemptible life… above all those who are poor and sick, and other indigents unable to earn

In 1939 the world was plunged into World War II because of the Munich Agreement. The Munich Agreement was an agreement regarding the Sudetenland Crisis between the major powers of Europe after a conference held in Munich in Germany in 1938. The Sudetenland was an important region of Czechoslovakia. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace treaty created as a result of six months of negotiations at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, which put an official end to World War I between the Allies and Central Powers. The Munich Agreement caused many disagreements between European countries. Collective security was a more effective response to aggression than appeasement because more European countries disagreed than agreed

Slavery has always been one of the United States’ most controversial topics. Although some considered slavery to be despicable, others like Vice President John C. Calhoun felt that slavery was a necessary evil. While Slavery is a necessary evil. America needs slaves to continue to do work and keep the economy stable. The rise of abolitionism and growing opposition to slavery from 1776 to 1852 grew due to fears of slave uprisings, people began to see slavery as a moral wrong, and the want for white free labor.

Not all presidents were able to sustain the economy that Washington built. Rather than maintaining its success they damaged it. Beginning with Monroe’s presidency in 1816 the economy began to be based on Henry Clay’s American System. Similar to Hamilton’s Financial Plan, Clay’s system consisted of three parts including: “(1) Protective tariffs, (2) a national bank, and (3) internal improvements” (Newman and Schmalbach.152). While Monroe took the idea of a national bank and protective tariffs he did not provide funds for internal improvements. The first protective tariff of 1819 was passed in the beginning of Monroe’s presidency for the purpose of protecting new industries by placing high

But what about the prosperity? When James Madison was elected, the national bank was established to ensure economic growth. Furthermore, inventions such as Eli Whitney’s cotton gin made it easier for landowners to make products more effectively and for a cheaper price. In addition to economic prosperity, Madison stressed the importance of United States security following the War of 1812. “In 1816 James Monroe was elected president of the United States. Monroe’s own diplomatic experiences, combined with the skillful diplomacy of Monroe’s Secretary of State John Quincy Adams, led to important advances in American foreign relations during his two terms in the White House. The Rush-Bagot and Transcontinental treaties firmed up America’s borders and spread its domain to the Pacific Ocean” (Sage). The Era of Good Feelings therefore deserves its name because of the economic prosperity experienced at the time and also the peace that would settle over the country due to the one party

Americans in the early nineteenth century had been, or atleast seemed to be very desent at solving their political problems with compromise. Compromise had been less and less effective at settling these politcal disputes the closer to 1900 it became. It seemed to be revativly impossible by 1860. This impossibity arouse from the North and the South adpoting impervious opinions about politics and slavery that heavily opposed each other. Senator Henry Clay, the "Father of Compromise" clearly stated and believed that it was "utterly impractical" that South Carolina ever wated to suceceed from the United States(Document A).

The finale of the War of 1812 brought about a sense of false unity in the United States as many citizens believed that they had won the war despite the fact that the war ended in a draw. This sense of nationalism allowed for the growth of industrialization which led to the transportation and market revolutions. However, the emergence of sectionalism following the Panic of 1819 was more a impactful condition as issues concerning slavery, tariffs, and national banks were disagreed upon. Moreover, the Era of Good Feeling was not an accurate label for this time period. Directly following the War of 1812, the Treaty of Ghent was signed.

Explanation: When you bring the shotgun to your shoulder, the stock should be brought to your cheek first and then back to your shoulder. A common error is lowering the head and cheek to the stock, instead of bringing the stock all the way up to the cheek. When done properly, with your head naturally erect, the gun butt always should come to the same spot on your shoulder.

Prompt: Evaluate how and why the antebellum market revolution and Second Great Awakening affected the evolution of women’s role in the family, workplace, and society in the years 1815 - 1860.

Politically, the power of the Democratic-Republican with support of the people strengthened nationalism by the American Expansion westward. The Westward Expansion was the a major source of nationalism in the Era of Good Feelings because the United States gained more land west that was previously owned by other nations such as France. Also the Monroe Doctrine increased nationalistic pride because it effectively told European powers that they can’t colonize further in the Western Hemisphere without intervention form the United States, which in turn established the power of the United States. Through Economics, Congressman Henry Clay spoke to congress to motivate them for economic improvements within the country, such as levying a protective tariff to protect America’s industries from foreign competition and for internal improvements to be funded by the federal government. These proposed reforms expressed nationalistic pride and motivated Henry Clay to propose the American System to promote growth in all sections of the country with a protective tariff, national bank, and internal improvements. Historically, the reason for Clay’s plan for economic improvements was the War of 1812 because during this time, the war allowed for growth of the American industry due to foreign policies such as the Embargo Act of 1807 and Nonintercourse Act of 1809 (Document 4).

This program, called for by President James Madison, required a large domestic package, including protection of domestic manufacturing, infrastructure investment, a stable currency, and a fairly large standing army and navy. Clay was eager to support this program. The American System was deeply rooted in Alexander Hamilton’s American school. One of his first initiatives to support this plan was following the conclusion of the War of 1812. After the war had ended, the American ports were being flooded with inexpensive British goods. With help from John Calhoun and William Lowndes, Henry passed the Tariff of 1816. This tariff protected American goods and helped to raise revenue. In order to stabilize the currency of the United States, Clay helped to propose the creation of the Second Bank of the United States. President James Madison approved of this Bank, and it was first established in
