The United States

The journey of how the United States of America became the United States of America is a very complex one. With America declaring separation from the Great English Empire, to the organization of becoming a free, sovereign nation and lastly, the migration and colonization of the now, western United States, including the great state of Nevada, has many components. The Declaration of Independence initiated the process of becoming a country of its own. This Document pushed the separation from England and showed the world that America was now its own nation. The United States Constitution laid out the blue print of how the United States would work. This was after a failed attempt of the Articles of Confederation. After the Constitution was created, the process of migrating west began in order to colonize the western region of the United States. Nevada had a big role in this because we helped President Abraham Lincoln gain a second term. The first chapters of the story of the Untied States of America were a dangerous, difficult and long one, but because of this, the people that live in this country today have the freedom of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

When the United States of America declared independence from Great Britain on July 4, 1776, its original government was not the one we have today. In March, 1781, the thirteen colonies ratified the Articles of Confederation. Likely attributed to their fear of a tyrannical dictator oppressing the masses, the Articles of Confederation were purposely weak, and gave most of the actual power to the states. When indebted Massachusetts farmer Daniel Shay started a rebellion that took far too long to quell, it was clear that a new basis for federal power had to be established or the young nation was doomed. At the Philadelphia Convention, representatives from most of the states, instead of revising the Articles wrote an entirely new document; the Constitution. Called “a bundle of compromises”it has gone over many interpretations but it is essentially the same document that governs us today.And because so many different people and politicians have different opinions on it, it could be called “a living document”.

“The United States we stand at this moment at the summit of this world” –Winston Churchill. 1940 was the last year before the United States fully engaged themselves into the war. At this time the US was dealing with its 11th year of the depression. 1/7th of the population was unemployed at this time. This meant that nearly 14% of the workforce was unemployed in 1940 compared to the average of 17% in 1930. During this time the federal government did not maintain a poverty line but if they did, 45% of white households and 90% of African American households would be in poverty. The middle class was about 1/3rd of the population. This is when the country went to war. December 7, 1941 Pearl Harbor was attacked.

Does the United States of America actually get the media it deserves? This is a crucial question for not only U.S. citizens to be asking themselves, but the media personnel as well. If a country’s media is not efficiently and effectively providing its citizens with news stories, there is a huge problem at hand. While the media thrives off of breaking news stories, it’s generally the minute details that grab the attention of viewers. In essence, the minute details are what makes a breaking news story a truly breaking news story. If the media withholds certain details from a story, which happens daily, they are depriving the viewers of “real news.” Due to this, American citizens often times do not get the news they deserve.

The U.S. seeks to provide for its security by stopping the proliferation of nuclear weapons. We have led internationally to levy economic sanctions against Iran. Our diplomatic efforts have already halted Iran’s nuclear program. The United States has an enduring interest in freedom of navigation and overflight as well as the safety and sustainability of the air and maritime environments. We are seeking stability in the Middle East, ensuring the free flow of energy from the region to the world while promoting democracy and upholding human rights. We will carry out this through investing in the ability of Israel, Jordan, and our Gulf partners to deter aggression while maintaining our unwavering commitment to Israel’s security, including

The United States is considered to be greatest, pretentious country in the world for its immense opportunities. For the past 200 years, there were about 40 million people from countries throughout the world coming to this country. The main incentive for such a great migration of people was either escaping from poverty, or war in their country. For instance, the Irish in the early 19th century migrated to the US, because of the potato famine. The famine provoked utter economic disaster.. It is inevitable for anyone to escape such disastrous, and life-threatening events. The two options that are available are either enduring the horrific pain, or move to a country and start anew. History has showed us that those that are placed in these

America or rather the Unites States of America bears a richly diverse history that cannot be summarized even in a million books, slides or videos. The reason supporting this argument range from the broad diversity in culture encompassing so many tribes and ethnic groups to the variation in skin formations guiding the country. The story started when Columbus sailed to virgin territories and activated a massive migration schedule from European countries. What happened next was a scramble of the fertile lands that make the entire American continent from the Mexican south to the Canadian North. Migration is a functional term synonymous with the American tag since the process is taking place, up to date. The American Republic found shape in the

At the beginning of the 18th century, the United States of America was beginning its long journey to becoming a nation. Free from the British Empire the United States started a government for and by the people something lacking previously. As George Washington was sworn into office his wife, Marsha Washington also took on new responsibilities. The Republican court was formed as a unifying tool. Held in the center of the country at the time, Philadelphia, it served as a way for people to converse about various topics. For Marsha Washington it became a social gathering. Described by Abigail Adams as “Too bibulous (two quarter casks of wine and spirits drained), too ravenous (200 pounds of cake gobbled), and too loud.” AS Washington’s term came to an end, John Adams was voted. Abigail Adams came to take over the Republican Court. She came to reform and modernize the conversation and status of the court. With experiences in European courts, thanks to her husband’s political ambassador experiences, she saw the European court ceremonies of dress, conversation and overall prestige with the courts. The Early Republican Court became a symbol and a tool for women to display their political knowledge.

Introduction: The United States is well known for being the melting pot because of the diversity of its people. There are variety of racial, ethnic, religious, and cultures that make the United States what it has become today. In America it doesn’t matter who you are, you can worship any religious faith you chose under the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Although they are different, you can still find many similarities among them. Although some may object, even within the United States, times have shown that religion still helps bring people together.

It has been a well-known fact that the United States has been a model example for the world since its inception. Through the course of time, the influence of the United States has slowly grown. The roots of this influence lie within the core of the United States government and have since branched out into language, the arts, food, and more (Zimmerman). While these aforementioned examples have largely come around in the past century, the origin of this process was first defined in around 1800 (Dictionary). During this time, we started to first see the term “Americanize” in the British vernacular, which subsequently led to the adoption of the term “Americanization” by the United States and the world.

The United States of America: the land of the free and the home of the brave. This country is supposed to be a paragon of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and it has been so preached for generations. The constitution testifies that all men are created equal. It states that all men are free; free from religious prosecution and oppression and exclusion. America’s forefathers fought for their independence, constructed a nation, set their beliefs in stone, and vowed to live accordingly. History shows us that those words were just that. Human beings were bought, sold, traded, deprived of their own identity, disallowed basic rights, and were considered possessions, not actual individuals. Women could not reside on their own or support

The United States of America was sought out by immigrants as a place of freedom and refuge. Throughout America 's short history, people from all over the world looked to America as a land of opportunity. Immigrants from Eastern European countries such as Poland, Lithuania, and Hungary poured into the United States in the mid 19th century. The large amount of immigration from Eastern European countries to the United States between 1919 and 1924 was due not only to the opportunities of work and freedom in America, but also to the hardships experienced in their home countries.

The United States of America has long been a country formed not by indigenous people, but by immigrants from all around the world. Immigrants that have helped shape the United States into the place many of us call home. A home that many individuals considered the land of the free due to the freedom of speech, religion, and press that our foreign founders have bestowed onto us. A home that consist of unjustified hate toward the Latino immigrants. Latinos have been backlashed by the U.S first by racist immigration laws in Arizona. A law that clearly states, “ A law enforcement officer, without a warrant, may arrest a person if the officer has probable cause to believe that the person has committed any public offense that makes the person

Within nine months of 2011 nearly 13,000 people were killed, not include the other 5,000 people reported missing accord to the National Human Rights Commission in Mexico, these incomprehensible numbers leave tens of thousands of children orphaned by the violence due to the drug war. With so many confirmed deaths, and disappearances, it may lead people to ask why the United States of America should get involved in the drug war going on in Mexico. To protect its citizens and its neighboring country citizens. Those heavily involved in the drug cartel are not only in Mexico, they are in the United States as well. Street gangs with cartel ties are not only in Los Angeles and Dallas, but also in many smaller cities across the United States and much farther north of the Mexican border. Mexican cartels had a presence in 230 cities in the United States in 2008, according to the U.S. Justice Department. Its 2011 report shows that presence has grown to more than 1,000 U.S. cities. While the violence has remained mostly in Mexico, authorities in Arizona, Georgia, Texas, Alabama and other states have reportedly investigated abductions and killings suspected to be tied to cartels. (CNN) Not only are American citizens falling victim to these violent crimes, drug traffickers are targeting young teenagers to work for them. Many may argue that if the united states gets involve in this drug war then they will be
