History

The Whiskey Rebellion was considered the first big test for the federal government because it was a result of the first tax put on the American people after creating the US Constitution. This was implemented by the federal government (under President Washington) in order to pay for the war debt generated by the American Revolution. One of the reasons why this was a big test was because the reason America initially rebelled against the British was because of their tax policies. The Whiskey Rebellion provided a challenge to the government, as the way they responded to this revolt would set the tone for how the federal government would respond to a crisis situation.

100 POINTS!!!!!!!! I NEED HELP WITH A HISTORY ASSIGNMENT. IT DOESNT NEED TO BE SUPER WELL WRITTEN. I NEED IT DONE ASAP BUT YK WH
PSYCHO15rus [73]
Option 1:
a.) The US policy of containment stated that they would contain communism to prevent it from spreading into the other countries. This can be seen in the Korean and Vietnam War because the US fought to stop the others from spreading the idea of communism.
b.) The agreements that ended the Cuban Missile Crisis was the idea of open skies. Each country would disarm their nukes and other atomic weapons and allow the skies to be open for “surveillance.” This, however, ended up failing as a US pilot was shot down after “surveying” the skies. The interesting thing about this is that the US president was already getting rid of all the atomic bombs in the US, but told the SU that they were not going to disarm. This scared the SU into disarming.
c.) in my opinion, I believe this containment policy failed. The US was unable to stop communism as it spread to china. The US tried hard to stop this spread but ultimately failed.

Option 2:
a.) The causes of the Korean War include the fear of spreading communism. North Korea were communist and South Korea were not. Just as the US were going through imperialism, North Korea was too. This caused them to want to spread the idea of communism. They attacked South Korea, so the US lead the counter attack and pushed the North Korean forces back.
b.) Due to the lack of support, the US lost the Vietnam war. There were many factors that contributed to this, making the Americans question the real intentions of the war. For example, the Tet Offensive was a turning point in the war. The war was almost over, and Johnson told the public they were winning, but when the US attacked Vietnam on the Vietnamese New year, they lost support. There was a request for 200,000 more troops and the US people saw this as an act of desperation. There was also the My Lai massacre where innocent Vietnamese citizens- mostly children and women- were killed by US soldiers for no reason. This was all covered up by the US government. The war eventually ended when Kissinger negotiated with north Vietnam. The US ended the longest known war and the last few troops leave Vietnam in 1973. South Vietnam surrendered in 1976, which is considered a loss because the US unsuccessfully helped them.
c.) same as option 1
