Endgame Review III
A Brief History of Unit 3
Thomas Jefferson – first POTUS to live in WH Midnight Appointments and Marbury v Madison Small, frugal gov't paid for with land sales FP – Barbary Pirates, Louisiana Purchase Democrats – everyone should be a small farmer
Participate in democracy (white males only) Most gov't affairs should be state matters, not federal
Madison and the War of 1812
James Madison – Father of the Constitution VP to Jefferson – shared his small gov't ideals War of 1812 – begun over impressment
3 invasions of Canada all defeated Stephen Decatur and the Navy win on the Great
Lakes Washington DC burned; Ft McHenry holds Andrew Jackson defends New Orleans
2 weeks after the war officially ended Nothing of consequence was resolved
Era of Good Feeling
One party rule of America – Democratic-Republicans
Economic Nationalism – Bank of the US Spain sells FL, Britain settles northern border Monroe Doctrine – this is our hemisphere Missouri Compromise of 1821 – MS/ME SCOTUS asserts federal superiority
Western Movement and Industrial Revolution
Cotton gin/slaves make cotton profitable Cotton destroys soil – drives westward expansion
Industrial Revolution – brought to US from UK Lowell System – MA factory of young single
females – operates as a factory/dorm/city Urbanization – factories require workers, who move
to cities looking for opportunity Drives the myth of the “Self-Made” American
I built my own factory with no help from anybody! Except for the police that protect it, the roads that workers drive
on, the public education that trains employees, and the fire dept that helps if it catches on fire
Religion and Romanticism
Rational Religions – Deism, Unitarianism 2nd Great Awakening – fiery, democratic revivals
Baptism/Methodism – egalitarian sects Mormonism – Joseph Smith founds in 1823
Book of Mormon – Jesus hit up America post-Resurrection
Transcendentalism – find God everywhere Romanticism – fear of modern, industrial life
Poe, Hawthorne, Dickinson
Manifest Destiny and The Mexican War
MD – God has given America to white people Spread westward across the plains (over Indians)
Mexico secedes from Spain – whites flood in Texas secedes from Mexico and joins US
POTUS Polk sends troops to the border CA annexed, Gen Winfield Scott takes Mexico City Guadalupe-Hidalgo – US gets TX/CA First offensive war for America Gives a new generation of West Point officers field
experience they will use in 20 years
