Flashback To The 1700's Research Paper

December 17, 1773: Yesterday, was a big day for the sons of liberty. All of the colonies have just been sent tons of tea from the East India Company and mosts of the colonists didn't like it because it was yet another example of Britain’s taxation tyranny. So we, the sons of liberty, snuck onto the boats carrying the tea and threw it all overboard. As a result, Britain passed the intolerable acts. It is terrible as Boston’s now because all of our ports are now closed. We might have

Everyday life in the United States is very different today than it was in the 1700's. Life was harder and the settlers did not have nearly as many luxuries as society has today. Some aspects of the colonial times that were different then are today include family, employment, and social activities. Life in the United States in the 1700's was filled with hard work, cooperation, and dedication to one’s land and family.

The Boston Tea Party was an event that happened during the American Revolution. On the night of December 16th , 1773 a group of Massachusetts colonist disguised themselves as Mohawk Indians and snuck onto three British ships called “Dartmouth”, “Eleanor”, and “Beaver”. The ships were docked in the Boston Harbor to deliver tea to the New England colonies. The group of Massachusetts colonist dumped three hundred and forty-two chests of tea overboard into the Boston Harbor. This event may have disappointed some people but it was one of the pivotal moments in battle to receive freedom from Great Britain in the American Revolution.

"You [...] made Plantations there and spoiled their hunting grounds, they [French-allied Delawares] then complained to us [...] and [we] found their complaints to be true. [...] [...] Our advice to you is, that you send for the Senecas [and Delawares],

The Boston Tea Party happened on December 16, 1773. The sons of liberty boarded 3 ships and dumped tea into the Boston harbor. They did this because of the British oppression. The British said they would have to pay all the tea off or the harbor will be closed.

One Social change during the late 1800s was the emancipation of slaves. For Example, in document 2, it is stated "Liberty came to the freemen of the United States not in mercy, but in wrath, not by, moral choice but by military necessity, not by generous action of the people among whom they were to live, and whose good-will was essential to success...., but by strangers, feigners, invaders, trespassers, aliens, and enemies. " This example demonstrates that the emancipation was forced and had moral value to the decision that made African-American people's lives difficult and cruel from racist actions and disadvantages. One example of a racial discrimination action was the Jim crow Laws.

The British government started taxing various things that were being shipped to America such as paper and glass. Most important to the cause of the Boston Port Act was that the British were taxing tea that was arriving in the Boston harbor. The colonists became very frustrated, and they decided to throw the next shipment of tea into the harbor. This became known as the Boston Tea Party, and it happened on December 16, 1773.

Have you heard of the Boston Tea Party? Well, it was a protest to the taxation of the tea that was being imported into the country. This event happened a little while before The American Revolution. The date was December 16,1773. The Boston Tea Party helped bring together the people. It also was one of the major causes of the American Revolution. The Boston Tea Party also made a lot of people think about taxation in a different way.

This essay is going to discuss the events that occurred between the time period of 1789-1860. One of them was the conflict that congress cannot set limits of U.S armed forces. Congress has declared war about 5 times in the U.S history. The military went to many different states & cities, It was over 99 million people in the military, many people give their lives up to protect and fight for our country & we don't even take the time to appreciate or mention them in any way.

British history from 1600 to 1650 wasn’t the best time of history for british people. Britain had a society from 1600 to 1650. From 1600 to 1650 Britain’s government had kings, queens, laws and punishments for outlaws. Britain also had wars religiously, politically and militarily during that time too.

The 1400’s was a time of the Renaissance, which was a change or rebirth in the Italian culture of art, politics and philosophy. Petrarch created a universal concept that changed the way people thought which was called humanism. Humanism is when people start to focus on the values and interests of humans. This idea started to spread with the help of the printing press which was a machine that made printing literature easier. Writers and artists were able to spread their ideas of humanism across Europe during the Renaissance through this machine. Artists like Raphael showed humanism with his painting of “The School of Athens”, Michelangelo’s sculpture of “David” and Leonardo Da Vinci’s “Vitruvian Man”.

The Tea Act of 1773 was a tax on tea but, the British lowered the cost of tea significantly enough that even with the tax, British tea was cheaper than Dutch tea. Also to keep the price down, the British East India Co. got rid of the middleman in the colonies and opened up their own shops. If the colonists bought this tea, they would be accepting the fact that the British could tax without representation. On Dec. 16th 1773 the ships docked at the Boston ports. The Sons of Liberty dressed up as Indians and threw 324 chests of tea into the water. England responded to the Boston Tea Party by the Coercive Act of 1774.

When the Boston Tea Party occurred on the evening of December 16,1773, it was the culmination of many years of bad feeling between the British government and her American colonies. The controversy between the two always seemed to hinge on the taxes, which Great Britain required for the upkeep of the American colonies. Starting in 1765, the Stamp Act was intended by Parliament to provide the funds necessary to keep peace between the American settlers and the Native American population. The Stamp Act was loathed by the American colonists and later repealed by parliament.

I would imagine in the 1700's knowledge would not exist without reason and experience; much of the knowledge obtained in that time period was poorly rationalized with a lack of science and written history. It would easily be understood in order to fully understand the world as we know it we must actively discuss our views with our peers and feel every possible outcome until muscle memory creates knowledge. Immanuel Kant coined a theory known as transcendental idealism, neither rational or empiricist it is but a hybrid of both. As Velasquez (2010) put it, "what we experience are things as they appear to us, not things as they are in themselves, and because the mind inserts rational structures or forms into the world that appears to us, that
