So I saw that you needed help, so I looked it up, but then I realized that I already knew a few things about the Culper Spy Ring. Here's a few facts you could use:
It was formed by American Major Benjamin Tallmadge under orders from General George Washington in 1778
The name "Culper" was suggested by Washington, and it was named after Culpeper County, Virginia
The two main members of the ring were Abraham Woodhull and Robert
Townsend
Members were both men and women
Their main responsibility was to provide information about British movement. At one point they sent word to Washington the British forces were planning a surprise attack on French Lieutenant General Rochambeau, as well as reporting the British planned to use counterfeit American currency on Continental dollar paper to get the Continental Congress to retire the bills. They told Washington British Major General William Tyron's raid was a diversion, so that Lieutenant General Sir Henry Clinton could attack him by surprise. They also found out that a high-ranking American official named Benedict Arnold was hiding out as a British spy.
Though nothing was ever confirmed, many say the Culper Ring exposed an attempt on General Washington's life.
There was a female spy who is only known as Agent 355. Her identity remains unknown to this day.
Hope that helps!
Executive, legislative and judicial
In the 1840s, the U.S was struck with the idea of <em>manifest destiny</em>. An idea that America should control North America from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. Mexico had the legal right to Texas thus dominated California, Arizona, and New Mexico. Two territories stood in America's way of accomplishing the manifest destiny idea; first, the Oregon Territory that was occupied by both Great Britain and the United States and the Western and Southwestern areas owned by Mexico. The differences between the United States and Mexico over the border of Texas led to the Mexican American War that resulted in American gaining ownership of Arizona, California, New Mexico, and Texas. The ownership of these territories fulfilled the '<em>Manifest Destiny' </em>of the U.S stretching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, Manifest Destiny.
The confederacy passed the conscription act because the army needed more people to serve in the army as the number of volunteers declines and the number of casualties increased.
