It split the western territories into two because most of the state's in the north did not have slaves but in the south they did .Not only that but also because when the south made the cotton for the clothes they would make in the north and when they would sale it to the south they would have it cost a lot like 2times it was worth so the south had gotten angry over that and the north was annoyed then came the civil war .basically they hated each other then
The surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown marked the end of the Revolutionary War.
Both the American Revolution and French Revolution were the products of Enlightenment ideals that emphasized the idea of natural rights and equality. With such an ideological basis, it becomes clear when one sets out to compare the French Revolution and American Revolution that people felt the need to be free from oppressive or tyrannical rule of absolute monarchs and have the ability to live independent from such forces. The leadership in both countries at the time of their revolutions was certainly repressive, especially in terms of taxation. Both areas suffered social and economic hardships that led to the realization that something must be done to topple the hierarchy and put power back into the hands of the people.
While there are several similarities in these revolutions, there are also a few key differences. This comparison essay on the French and American Revolutions seeks to explore the parallels as well as the divisions that are present in both the American Revolution and the French Revolution. The political climate in France during its revolution was quite different than that in America simply because there was not a large war that had just ended in America (while in France the Seven Years War had nearly devastated the French monarchy’s coffers). Furthermore, although the lower and middle classes were generally the majority of the rebelling populace, there was far more upper class support for the revolution in France versus the participation of loyalists in America.

The Spanish-American war was fought in 1898 between the US and Spain. It started because of the explosion of USS Maine that was in Havana Harbor and the main issue of the war was Cuba independence.
When the USS Maine exploded “New York Journal” published a story blaming the Spanish for what occurred. The newspaper used eye-catching headlines, sensational stories with the feature of yellow.
This influenced the public’s opinion who demanded intervention and pushed the US to enter the conflict with Spain over Cuba.
