In early American literature, religion is one of the more consistent as well as prevalent themes. This is primarily due to the fact that early settlers of the American colonies were seeking to escape religious persecution, as well as to find a place to freely develop and expand their religious convictions. Despite sharing common English heritage as well as branching from the Anglican and Catholic church, religious views on liturgy and deontological ethics differed greatly amongst the settlers. This can be seen in the works of John Winthrop and Roger Williams. While both men’s religious beliefs stemmed from the same roots, each held different opinions on how rigid religion and liturgy should be held throughout the community.

The constitution has many well detailed and interesting facts throughout, and I’ve located a few facts that I didn’t realize were in the constitution and I also found them to be quite interesting. The first thing I’ve located was this; “The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several states”. I had no idea that the president was the Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy. He has the Power with the advice and consent of the senate, to make Treaties, as well has many other powers. I had no idea the President had such power over everything. Another fact I’ve found out was that there is an age minimum to becoming a senator. It states that “No Person shall be a Senator who shall

Robert E. Lee, by 1863, had asserted himself as the most dominant general on either side of the North and South during the Civil War. His ‘perfect’ victory against Hooker in May at Chancellorsville proved decisive enough for Lee to attempt another invasion of the North. Lee hoped that a move like this would be enough to enable the disrupt Union plans for an offense on Richmond in the summer, give his solders a morale-boosting offensive they needed, and by taking the war further north, giver war-weary Virginia a respite from fighting. Ever since his command of the Army of Northern Virginia during the Seven Days Battle in 1862, Lee had been relentlessly aggressive, so that by the summer of 1863, he had already created a legend of Confederate

Meriwether Lewis, William Clark, and the other members of the Corps of Discovery traveled 3,700 miles from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean in non-motorized boats, on horseback, and on foot.

In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark gathered a crew of 45 men and set out into the unexplored Louisiana Territory to discover new trade routes, animals and plant species. Once they arrived in North Dakota, the infamous Sacajawea and her infant son joined the crew on their journey. However, half of the group abandoned the trip and returned home, but Lewis and Clark persevered and discovered some of the famous animals we know today, such as the grizzly bear and prairie dog.

Richard Ligon was from England and moved to Barbados in 1647. There, he lived amongst slaves, servants, and planters for approximately ten years. He witnessed many forms of slavery and paid close attention to how the different slave groups were being treated, in comparison to one another. In his article, he compares the living conditions of the slaves to the servants. Ligon also discusses what their motives and methods of resistance to their master’s authority are. In his work, it is also evident that cultural adaptations were made between the European and African inhabitants of Barbados. He demonstrates this by going into detail about how the slaves expressed their African culture through their music, religion, and recreation.
