The increasing presence of the federal government in the United States is a pattern that we can see in modern history. This presence became particularly significant with industrialization. One of the ways in which the federal government became more involved in American society was through the expansion of the market economy during the Civil War. The Civil War was a battle between the North and the South, with the North eventually winning partly due to its industrial capacities. This demonstrated the importance of development and industrialization, and led to an expansion of economy and industry in the years following the war. Moreover, this expansion was needed during Reconstruction in order to assimilate the newly free black population.
Some of these policies, such as the Homestead and the Pacific Railroad Acts had a deep impact in the West. These two acts allowed the population of the United States to expand west, creating more cities and expanding the national market. However, they also led to the loss of land (relocation) and autonomy of many American Indian nations.
Finally, there were some domestic factors that helped explain why the United States wanted to become an overseas empire. As the economy and industry of the country improved, America wanted to find new markets around the world. Moreover, the country was also inspired by the idea of Manifest Destiny. This idea argued that the United States had been chosen by God to spread a message of peace, democracy and the rule of law all over the world, and that this could be achieved through imperialism.
The Great Wall of China, built more than 2,000 years ago, stands as one of the monumental feats of ancient engineering. But before the Great Wall, warring Chinese dynasties built many other walls for protection. There are 7,000 watchtowers, blockhouses for soldiers, and beacons to send smoke signals. Nineteen walls have been built that were called the Great Wall of China. The first was built in the 7th century BC.
Hm... Tough question!
What I would do is make a map of all the battles, learn about a few, and state what you've learned in front of the class!
Hope this helps! ;)
It was the "First Continental Congress" that was formed after the passage of the Coercive (Intolerable) Acts, since these Acts represented somewhat of a "final straw" in terms of royal mistreatment of the colonists.
The reader can infer that malcolm X had an overwhelming desire to learn
The phrase “You couldn’t have gotten me out of books with a wedge,” was written by Malcolm X when he's describing his experience in prison.
He wrote that he basically spent all of his time in prison by reading a book. He read books on library, during breaks , and on his bunks. He believed that even if other people threaten to beat him with a wedge if he does not stop reading the book, he'd still choose to read.
