<u><em>Native Americans</em></u> and <u><em>Europeans</em></u> were great explorers in the 1490's. <em>Europeans</em> adventurers came to a continent that was an unknown place to them. They saw it as an entirely new territory, with new species to discover. They met new people with surprising ways of living and a totally new culture and beliefs. <u><em>Native Americans</em></u> also arrived at different times, over several thousands of years. They traveled from Asia on foot or by boat, crossing the Bering Strait. Their explorations took them through icy landscapes, deserts, forests, swamps and along the coastlines. After some time, these <u><em>native American</em></u> explorers spread out over the entire continent, until the territories of Patagonia, in the extreme south. Adventure and conquest of new land was one characteristic that <em><u>Europeans</u></em> and <u><em>native Americans</em></u> had in common at that time.
You seem to be giving a statement more than asking a question, but the period you describe ran from about 1815 to 1825, and is most closely associated with the presidency of James Monroe.
The phrase "Era of Good Feelings" was coined by a journalist, Benjamin Russell, in the Boston newspaper, <em>Columbian Centinel</em>, on July 12, 1817. Russell used that term to describe the new era taking shape, especially as Monroe's presidency began, after Monroe visited Boston as part of a goodwill tour of the US. President Monroe certainly went along with the description and was trying to evoke that "good feelings" sort of mood in the country. Historians see "The Era of Good Feelilngs" as having begun around 1815, after the War of 1812 and the end of Napoleon's wars in Europe, when the United States entered an era when it could focus on its own affairs and not need to be concerned about political and military happenings in Europe. The "Era of Good Feelings" is strongly associated with Monroe's two-term presidency, from 1817 to 1825. President Monroe made goodwill tours of the country in 1817 and 1819 to promote national pride and national unity.
Answer:
Historically, the American armed forces were disproportionally drawn from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. A transition toward a smaller and more selective military has changed this tendency. Since the armed forces do not gather data on recruits’ family income, previous studies relied on geographic data to proxy for economic background. We improve on previous literature using individual-level data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 and study population representativeness in the years 1997-2011.
We find that recruits score higher than the civilian population on cognitive skill tests, and come from households with above average median parental income and wealth. Moreover, both the lowest and highest parental income categories are under-represented. Higher skill test scores increase enlistment rates from lower- and middle-income families while decreasing them for high income families. The over-representation of minorities in the military has declined in recent decades. Non-Hispanic White casualties are now over-represented in Iraq and Afghanistan.
