History

Answer:

During the American Civil War, there were many confrontations that took place, and which were central to both the Confederates and the Union. However, one that stands historically as very significant, because it became the turning of the tide for the Union against the Confederacy, and because of its bloodiness, was, the Battle of Shiloh, during which the famous Hornet´s Nest took place.

The name derives from what the Confederates said the bullets of the Union soldiers sounded like as they stood to defend this privileged stretch of land from being overun by the Confederate Army. It also became central because the small group of Union soldiers left on this piece of land, most of them untried soldiers, were able to hold themselves together until reinforcements arrived under the command of General Ulysses S. Grant. This, in turn meant, that the Union line was maintained. In order to upset the control regained by Union forces, Confederates, according to historians, were forced to assemble the largest force of artillery ever to have been used in battle, which further exhausted them and opened them to Union advances.

Treaty of Ghent - Outcomes of the War
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Results of the Treaty of Ghent: According to the Terms of the Treaty of Ghent all conquered territory was to be returned, and commissions (official groups) were planned to settle the boundary of the United States and Canada. The British government realized that there was no chance of conquering any portion of the United States.

The Treaty of Ghent was significant for the Aboriginal peoples who participated in the War of 1812 in that it represents, in many ways, the failure of the British to understand not only the goals that the Natives had tried to achieve in the War, but also the realities facing the tribes before, and after the conflict.

svetlana [45]

Many forerunners and founding fathers of America hailed from the East, American westward expansion was considered to be the hallmark because of many reasons. It all started when Thomas Jefferson bought Louisianan territory from France, he believed that for America to become a powerful block in the world, its west ward expansion is necessary.

There was vast and cheap availability of fertile lands in the west which could be used for erecting major factories and create employment opportunities that were mostly low paid in the east due to European restrictions.

Gold Rush in Oregon was an alluring factor for westward expansion. Environment in the west was compliant and the land was productive.
