Development of the New United States

As generations grew up in America, nationalism within the colonies grew towards their new country. These settlers slowly lost their patriotic tie to Great Britain and it’s ruler, King George III. So when the French and Indian War ended in America, and the indebted England needed some compensation from American settlers in the form of taxes, the colonists questioned the authority of England and their ability to rule them. British imperial policies such as the Sugar Act of 1764 and the Townshend Tea Tax caused uproar within the colonies against British rule without

In 1789 George Washington was elected as the First President of the United States of America under the Constitution. In the following years after George Washington's administration was John Adams and succeeding him was the Third President of the United States Thomas Jefferson. George Washington and Thomas Jefferson's' administrations contributed to establishing a stable government after the adoption of the Constitution. They strengthened the national government by passing important legislature, peaceful international affairs and economic plans.

In the late 1700s, the United States had began to split into two factions: Federalists and Antifederalists. Factions are groups of citizens united by a common interest. The reasoning behind the differing views of how the government works across the world was best said by Locke “Men are equal in a natural sense, but society establishes many dimensions that are unequal”. (Barbour and Wright, 2017). In the states, Federalists wanted a strong central government while anti-federalists wanted a weak one. “The Georgians, for example, wanted a strong central authority to provide military protection for their huge, underpopulated state against the Creek Confederacy; Jerseymen and Connecticuters wanted to escape from economic bondage to New York; the Virginians hoped to establish a system which would give that great state its rightful place in the councils of the republic” (Roche, 800). The one thing they agreed on was having George Washington as president. George Washington tried to be a neutral leader of the United States and suggested for the states to stay together rather than divide into factions. “Thomas Jefferson is credited as stating: “North and South will hang together if they have you to hang on””(Jamison, 2016).

George Washington, The first U.S. president, created a cabinet in 1789. A cabinet is a different use of government. New York the brand new government acted fast to make the nation's financial structure increase. The government assumed that the revolutionary war debt the states and the government. The debts paid for a program through new taxes and tariffs. The tax on whiskey was a revolt that the tariffs and taxes led it to, the president got a army and suppressed the tax on whiskey revolt. After that the government adopted the Bill of rights as the ten amendments for the constitution. The federal judiciary was established by the judiciary act of 1789. The Judiciary act of 1789 also establish the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court began to be

When George Washington became the first president of the United States in 1789 the young republic faced many pressing issues. The state needed to build a sound economy, create a stable polotical system and preserve national independence. .

After a long time coming, the 13 colonies: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, finally won their independence against the british government on July 4th 1776. This war of independence made not only political changes for the US but also around the world. After years of tension building up, the first strike for americans to be against britain was when the British government implemented the Stamp Act. This was a tax on all stamps to help reimburse Britain for the land they acquired for the 13 colonies. The colonist weren’t all that thrilled about this tax not only because the tax was high but because they had no representation

So as a result of the powers of the Executive branch, it lead to the Election of 1788 and 1792 where the Commander-in-chief- was elected unanimously by the Electoral College in both elections. Since the President felt uneducated, he created Presidential Cabinet to help surround himself with expert advisors. One appointment position primarily important to this document, was given to Alexander Hamilton of Secretary of the Treasury. Due to taxes made by Hamilton, it created a

When the colonists first arrived to the New World there were very few obligations and rules that the British government had set for them and they were on their own to live their life in the way they saw fit. Throughout the years, England realized how much of an asset the New World was to their economy. Due to the American colonies great advantages to their economy and their everyday lives, Great Britain became greedy and decided that only they should be able to exploit from the colonies. This greed prompted the Crown to implement new taxes and regulations in order to obtain a larger profit. After many attempts to work with Great Britain and being dismissed, the colonist declared independence from England. This caused the Revolutionary War and in 1783 the colonists were finally free from Great Britain. The colonists drew from the positive and negative experiences from the Crown's rule when writing their own country's government. The crown's supreme rule over all aspects of the colonists life compelled the colonists to incorporate a limited government into the Constitution. Because of the lack of representation that the colonists possessed during during colonial times, when making the constitution they secured the idea of popular sovereignty as an effort to make sure that all citizens could have an opinion in their ruling. Separation of power was implemented into the Constitution for the purpose of denying one person excessive power. Checks and balances fall under

The American colonist and the British started out having a very civil relationship. They provided each other with resources. During the French and Indian war the colonists were on the British side and helped them fight. Unfortunately, after the war the British started to change their ways and started to come up with new stricter rules. The British started to tax the colonist on different kinds of items, which was not fair to the colonists. They were controlling the colonist with everything they did. The colonists wanted them to back off a little but the British weren't budging. They thought they could tell the colonists what to do but the colonists were not going to be treated that way, so they took matters in their own hands. The colonists

The reasons behind the sudden transition of England and it’s American colonies from allies to enemies is still debated today. When the colonies were first created they had a somewhat dependent relationship with the British. Trade was regulated through the British homeland while the British provided structure for the developing colonies. As salutary neglect came into play, the colonies became more independent in their ways by developing their own governments and laws. After the French and Indian War, the British economy dropped due to war expenses. The passing of the Stamp Act and all the taxes to follow were an attempt to create revenue for the British. This created tension between the colonists and the British government. The British government caused rebellion by trying to tax the colonists in ways that had not previously been done and by trying to control the colonies more closely than it previously had. The colonies were justified in waging war and breaking away from the British due to the unfair tyrant, burdensome taxes, and the aggressive behavior of the British.

For many years America has been under the British rule with egregious taxes and an abundance of rules that were difficult for any man to follow. With the British taking charge of the Colonists they began to think of ways to rebel and oppose the British. They started with the Boston Tea Party; a historical event that changed the colonies forever. Patrick Henry gave a speech to the delegates using persuasive elements such as ethos, logos, and pathos, to push these men into a war against the british to one day be a free country.

The French and Indian War caused Britain to go into debt. Parliament decided that the colonists had to take part in paying the debt. So, they passed acts that taxed British goods. When the colonists found out they had to pay taxes without representation, they were furious. One act that the colonists were upset by was the Stamp Act. The colonists´ reactions brewed up a lot of tension which led to the formation of the United States of America.

It was two days after April 16, 1789 when George Washington accepted the duties of being President, and began to create the government and the First Cabinet. In Document 1 it stated that these people In the textbook it stated, “ To head these departments, Washington chose capable leaders he knew and trusted. He picked Thomas Jefferson as secretary of state, Alexander Hamilton as secretary of the treasury, and Henry Knox, who had served as Washington’s general of artillery during the Revolution, as secretary of war. Finally, he chose Edmund Randolph as attorney general, the chief lawyer of the federal government. These department heads soon became the president’s chief advisers, or Cabinet.”

Back in 1775 when American Revolution started America did not like be under the control of Britain. The colonials decides that no longer want to live under Britain. The Britain's force them to pay high taxes to help pay with their dept. They were tired of paying so massive amount taxes for everything. They began to protest against them. When they thought the Britain's took the thing to far they started to riot. So they came to the conclusion that it was best if Britain and the colonials separated. That later led to the separation of the colonials

The british were very unfair and very unattractive to the american colonies mostly because of power and money the american colonies just wanted independence and self ruling for their own colony that's why we had the american revolution. In the 1760s, shortly after the conclusion of the french and indian war, the british parliament passed a series of laws and taxes on the american colonies.They created unfair laws and taxes on the british.The colonist disagreed with great britain on the fairness of these laws and taxes which led to conflict between the two sides.Eventually, this erupted into the American Revolution.(doc 1) The american colonies wanted to make there own decisions and have their independence.But the british wanted to rule and make laws and taxes for the american colonies also to punish the americans for their wrong doings.The american colonies do organized protest in spite of these laws and actions.Patrick henry responds to the stamp act patrick says in one of his speeches king George is a tyrant he breaks rules he is a threat to his own people.When Patrick Henry puts that in his speech it really lets you know that what they were doing was wrong and for king George to be leading it makes it even worst because he knows what he is doing and did not really care alongs as the british colonies were getting money for the debt they were in after the French and Indian war.
