The Impact Of United States On America

Communication, transportation, and the trading of new goods changed the culture of the United States. Machinery for mass production, like the Spinning Jenny, the Iron mining industry and coal mining industries created a culture of constant communication, trading and commerce between U.S citizens.

     Since its inception, America as a nation has developed and progressed according to trends of change that collectively define an era. Like all other eras, the time period of 1875-1925 experienced growth, changes, movements, and new ideals. It is the way that these changes came about that defines this era. Americans started to push for changes in many arenas of life that were previously unchallenged. New experiences and opportunities were also presented to America that caused tributaries in the former American ideal. These pressures for change could not be ignored and thus America continued its maturity in a new and unique manner. The changes in the American sphere of life and the development of greater

America had a huge industrial revolution in the late 1800”s. Many changes happened to our great nation, which factored into this. The evidence clearly shows that advancements in new technology, a large wave of immigrants into our country and new views of our government, helped to promote America’s huge industrial growth from the period of 1860-1900.

During the years between 1920 and 1960, America saw change in many aspects of life. The United States was a part of two major wars and a crash of the banking system that crippled the economy greater than ever seen in this country’s history. Also the country had new insecurities to tackle such as immigration and poor treatment of workers. These events led to the change of America lives socially, economically, and politically.

However; the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, the creation of the Erie Canal, Henry Clay’s “American System”, the Fugitive Slave Act, and the Emancipation Proclamation were all specific occurrences and events that impacted the development of the United States politically and economically.

America during the 1920’s is often described as a time of prosperity and change that allowed the United States to peak. However, what is commonly overlooked is that this era was conflict filled in which society was blinded by luxurious lifestyles and the entertainment industry; preventing any solutions from being formed that could deal with the various issues. It was the people’s ignorance and the problem filled cities that slowly pushed America into the great depression within a decade. After World War I finally came to an end on June 28, 1999 through the Treaty of Versailles, the United States became the most powerful nation in the world since it was the least affected by the war compared to Europe. In fact, American industry and economy

Shrey Saretha 2/8/15 P.4 Industrialization Document Based Question From 1865 to 1900, the United States of America was going through a period of industrialization. This transformation of the U.S. society to a society primarily based on the manufacturing of various goods and services produced a wide range of effects and reactions from the American society at that time. Although some historians may argue that industrialization had a mainly negative effect on U.S. society due to the unfair and now illegal practices taking place at that time, the reforms that took place because of these practices helped create many positive changes for society that still exist today. The initial positive outcomes of industrialization, the negative outcomes, and

Prior to the 1890’s, the United States followed a foreign policy of seclusion to worldly matters. This idea stemming from George Washington’s Farewell Address to “avoid entangling alliances” became the foundation for American seclusion and detachment, a policy which resulted in this country being able to overcome tremendous internal difficulties facing the rising, fast-changing state of America. The Manifest Destiny enlarged American borders and created speedy industrialization, which made the nation powerful. New interests and concepts also began to change our foreign policies such as social Darwinists, which stressed the significance of forte and evolution, while others assimilated the “little brown brothers” who needed to be taught responsibly. {1-2 sentences on the economics of the Gilded Age before 1898: Panics, economic growth after the Civil War, 2nd Industrial Revolution} Urged by economic benefits, people wanted new markets for their goods, while others ravished the riches of new land. Due to the America’s strive to become the Worlds greatest nation throughout history, the American economy was able to benefit after the Spanish American war and World War II, as opposed to the inflation and lead up to the Great Depression which World War I inflicted on the economy.

The ascendency of the United States (U.S) into the world’s hegemonic was one like none other. The start of the twentieth century brought upon revolutionary technological advancements that propelled the U.S into the leading economic superpower it remains today. Following the turbulent economic climate of the country following World War I, the development of mass production not only revolutionised the industrial sphere, but also remains widely accredited for being the key driving force behind the economic boom in the 1920s. Existing social values were reformed; free-market capitalist practices were endorsed, and American society aspired to ideals of excessive material wealth and excess. A revolution of mass consumption’ took place in this era, transforming the U.S economy one of global superiority and enabling it to exercise diplomatic authority over the rest of the world. However, it must also be considered that such developments only brought upon temporary prosperity, ultimately leading to the globally devastating Great Depression in the 1930s, and this prosperity was only enjoyed by a fraction of the population. Additionally, the importance of other factors, such as the nation’s role in WWII, and the fiscal policies implemented by the Republican government, when regarding the nation’s rise to global hegemon is fundamental.

Coming from its war of independence, America was still attempting to find its place in the world. The years between 1812 and 1877 fostered much change in the newly born nation’s values and identity. The Second Great Awakening, the market and industrial revolutions, and women’s rights movements, each contributed to the formation of the US. Though there were many changes in this time period, none had as a big an impact on American lives than the Civil War and immigration. This time period is characterized by social, economic, and political changes which shaped the way America ran for years.

Conflicts and compromises during the Federalist Period led to political, social, and economic development of the United States of America. The political development of the United States hinged on the fact that the people did not believe the Government was going to be effective. The social development of America was heavily influenced by the need for an educated population. The United States economic development was kickstarted when the country had to find its way out of huge debt. While America was being developed, conflicts and compromises played a big role in the country’s development.

The fact that America was ‘hegemonic’ became clear. It produced almost as much as the rest of the world put together. Its military lead was significant. Its “soft power” even more dominant. While other nations realize it full well, Americans do not want to accept that the United States dominates the world through military power.Since around 1870 the United States has had the largest economy in the world.America experienced a rebirth after its difficult post-Civil War recovery period. Free enterprise fueled the triumphant era, as individual Americans embraced new opportunities to follow their own economic initiatives.

American history is filled with ups and downs. Starting out with only 13 colonies, America forcibly removed themselves from the one of the strongest empires in the world.

We believe that the people of America should be more concerned about the negative impacts in the changes of Earth’s Environment/Human Activity. The positive impacts mostly just benefit us as a society (money, economy, etc.). The negative impacts actually, not only hurt us, but our entire Earth as well. Including other living organisms. While it may not seem like it, what we’re doing now is actually going to hurt us in the future. There’s no point in doing something now to help us currently when later it is going to come back and put us in BIG trouble.
