Outline Of Chapter 13 Apush

Ch.1: With the Treaty of Paris, the British set up military posts running from the Northern end of Lake Champlain, to Niagara, Detroit, and Michigan Peninsula. The British took the posts because the US failed to live up the treaty terms. In 1784, the Spain closed the lower Mississippi River to the American commerce, and then orders a tariff on US goods. The U.S. made negotiation for commercial treaties and did trade directly with Europe. The Britain excluded the U.S from the imperial trade and received a large quantity of cheap goods. The U.S in the time of depression and the balance of trade made some states print more money between 1785 and 1786. Other states also tried imposing taxes and restricting new issues of money.

5.5. Spain watched Portugal’s success with exploration and slaving with envy and wanted a piece of the pie.

Both North and South were ill prepared for war in 1861. Initially dependent on volunteers, the Confederacy established a draft in 1862, and the Union did so the following year.

The main theme of Chapter 11 is Politics and Power (POL) because the idea of central power was a widely disputed issue that was big for this chapter.

Sentences 1. The republic of the United States allows the citizens to elect representatives to make laws that satisfy the needs of the people. 2. Before the Constitution was written, the U.S. government had an unicameral legislature; a single law-making body. 3.

The main theme of Chapter 16 is Culture and Society (CUL) and Work, Exchange, and Technology (WXT) because of slavery’s absolute takeover of the United States, and the social, Political and economic consequences that come from it. In the south, the issue of slavery is very prevalent because it has taken over all aspects of peoples’ lives, and created am aristocratic social structure that’s dominated by the rich plantation owners. In the South, the rich had all the power, and the

From the era of Reconstruction to the late of 19th century, the United States experienced a significant economic growth and a large number of immigrants, who were lured by enormous job opportunities. The big business starting growing rapidly due to a combination of new technology, more efficient management and access to enormous resources. From 1870 to 1900, the expansion of big corporations caused mass production and high demands of unskilled workers in the United States, while resulting more difficult situations for workers and intense political corruption. The Americans responded actively to such conditions. Some of them organized strike in order to threatened their employers and ask for better treatments, while others participated in many

4. Religious skepticism also produced the philosophies of “universalism” and “Unitarianism,” which emerged at first as dissenting views within the New England Congregational Church.

In early August 1964, two U.S. destroyers stationed in the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam radioed that they had been fired upon by North Vietnamese forces. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident was a major turning point in the United States military involvement in Vietnam. North Vietnamese warships had attacked United States warships, the U.S.S. Maddox and the U.S.S. C. Turner Joy, on two separate occasions in the Gulf of Tonkin. This action of violence from the North Vietnamese led to the passing of the Tonkin Gulf Resolution. This resolution became the legal basis for the Johnson and Nixon Administrations prosecution of the Vietnam War. Diem held control of the South Vietnamese Government, but he could not halt the communist infiltration of the South.

The Vietnam War was one of the most hated wars in United States history, for the primary reasons that we did not win and the draft destroyed countless men, physically and mentally. The end result of the war did not justify the means and this made a lot of people very upset. This war was also the most televised war, showing incredibly gruesome, uncensored images on the evening news at dinner time. The political protest for the

Many people believe that the Gulf of Tonkin Incident is responsible for increased U.S. escalation in Vietnam. President Johnson and his administration claimed that the incident involved unprovoked attacks on U.S. destroyers (Herring, 165). People had questioned what had actually occurred even back then. I believe the Johnson administration was looking for a reason to escalate American involvement and that the Gulf of Tonkin Incident provided the perfect opportunity. American policy in South Vietnam was not as effective as many had thought.

During the Progressive Era, various groups responded to the political, social, and economic woes that resulted from the rapid industrialization and urbanization of America during the 19th Century. The mass immigration of foreigners and the northern migration of Africa-Americans led to urban overcrowding and competition for wage-paying jobs. Electric lighting allowed factories to expand the working hours and increase the output of manufactured goods. There was little regulation for employee welfare and many men, women, and children toiled long hours in unsafe factory conditions. Expanding communications through the widespread use of telephones, magazines, and newspapers brought the plight of the poor and oppressed to middle-class America. Improving personal economics allowed these reformers to think less about personal issues and more about society at large. These middle-class Americans led a social movement to cope with the problems associated with rapid industrialization in the 19th Century by bettering society through governmental, business, and social reform.

“In August of 1964, in response to the American and GVN espionage along its coast, the DRV launched a local and controlled attack against C. Turner Joy and the U.S.S. Maddox , two American ships on call in the Gulf of Tonkin” (Brigham 2). This resulted in the United States government giving Lyndon Johnson the ability to make war under the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. President Johnson then gave orders to perform air raids on Northern Vietnam pushing the United States further into the war. Compared to 1962 when only 9,000 soldiers supported the South Vietnamese, by June 1965 82,000 soldiers occupied the country. The number only continued to rise exponentially, and by 1966 370,000 soldiers had been sent in to prop their South Vietnam allies. President Richard Nixon withdrew American soldiers from Vietnam and as part of the “vietnamization” of the war. Over and 60,000 American soldiers had been lost in a war to preserve the status quo, not to win.

There was not much serious thought in escalating the Vietnam War until the Tonkin Gulf incident occurred. In the Gulf of Tonkin it was reported “that two American destroyers had been attacked by North Vietnamese PT boats on August 4, 1964,” (Friedman 293). Shortly after these incidents, “Johnson immediately escalated the war by ordering airstrikes on North Vietnam” (Friedman 293). These events made it so Johnson could raise United States involvement in Vietnam without congressional backing on his decisions. Increasing involvement in the war was appealing though because after the Tonkin Gulf incident support of military involvement in North Vietnam raised from thirty one percent approvals to fifty percent approval (Moise 226). Although approval of the amount in favor immediately after the Gulf of Tonkin incident rose, it was a “mistake on Johnson’s part… assuming that the
