The Federalists and Anti-Federalists clearly believe in two opposing ideologies and platforms. The Federalists who are also termed as nationalists played a vital role in the formation and shaping of the 1787 US constitution which solidified the national government at that time. The Anti-Federalists on the other hand, is against the ratification of the US constitution but failed to successfully penetrate the thirteen states that caused them to individually fight the ratification in every state convention. However, they had successfully forced the first Congress to create a bill of rights under the new Constitution in order to make sure the freedom and rights that the Anti-Federalists felt that the Constitution had violated.
I believe Lake Itasca is the beginning of the Mississippi River.
First Great Awakening:
• 1730s-1740s
• Credited founder: Jonathan Edwards (remember Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God?)
Based on Puritan/Congregationalist ideals
o Northampton, Massachusetts
o Preached personal salvation
o Discussed repentance for sins (why? Remember “declension”?)
• Other major supporter: George Whitefield (revivalist, travels through the colonies)
o More emotional, revival-like sermons and preaching
o Influences the south (slaveholders participate; try to prevent slaves from attending)
• Influence of the “backcountry” – non-wealthy colonists living further west, take new revivalism
to heart and form new sects (remember the significance of this group on Early American
History)
Second Great Awakening:
• Early 1800s; usually 1810s to as late as the 1840s
• Most known leader: Charles Grandison Finney (has appeared in related DBQ essays)
• Directly influenced by increasing political participation of common citizens
• Plays a direct role in the antebellum reform movements, especially abolitionism (but also
including temperance, prison reform, and women’s rights – remember the Mock Exam FRQ?)
• Popular in the backcountry; especially the southern Appalachian regions
• Again, slaveholders tried to prevent slaves from attending; eventually had to come up with
Christian reasons for slavery
• Role of the Second Great Awakening on the frontier? As people move away from traditional
homelands, they must search for a sense of community
• This is really where newer sects gain increased membership: Methodists, Baptists
• Also, very different sects emerge: Mormons, Seventh-Day Adventists

B. <em>1998</em>. It was in this year that Osama bin Laden co-signed a <em>fatwa</em> (a non-binding legal pronunciation made by a religious authority) with Ayman al-Zawahiri, stating that the killing of North American and their allies was an "individual duty for every Muslim", to "liberate the al-Aqsa Mosque and Mecca from their grip". In the same year a series of U.S. embassies bombings (by terrorist cells linked or incited by al-Qaeda), thorough East African countries killed hundreds of people.
