...Revolutionary Era DBQ Around 1763, Britain was in immense debt from the 7 Years War (French and Indian War). They were looking for ways to make revenue and they decided that colonists were responsible to help them. Britain started taxing colonists by enacting many different acts until 1776. Colonists did not think very highly of these taxations and believed it was an infringement of their rights to tax them without their consent. Eventually, Colonists became so resistant to British Rule, that the Independence Movement was started. Many influencers of the time, were spreading the word to persuade all of America towards cutting ties with Britain. There were several acts that colonists did not favor, thus strengthening their resentment towards Britain. Acts affecting trade imposed by the British, had the most significant impact on Colonial America, and in turn led to the Independence Movement. Thomas Paine, a British immigrant wrote a pamphlet in 1776 titled “Common Sense” regarding why he believes America should break away from Britain. Paine believes it is a disadvantage to depend on Britain because they will be dragged into any of Britain’s affairs and wars. Thomas also states that they will strongly benefit from this because they can trade with whomever they would like, importing and exporting would be much...

...APUSH Study Guide 8 A weak Confederacy and the Constitution, 1776-1790 Themes/Constructs: The federal Constitution represented a moderately conservative reaction against the democratilizing effects of the Revolution and the Articles of Confederation. The American Revolution was not a radical transformation like the French or Russian revolutions, but it produced political innovations and some social change in the direction of greater equality and democracy. The American Revolution did not overturn the social order, but it did produce substantial changes in social customs, political institutions, and ideas about society and government. Among the changes were the separation of church and state in some places, the abolition of slavery in the North, written political constitutions, and a shift in political power from the eastern seaboard toward the frontier. The first weak government, the Articles of Confederation, was unable to exercise real authority, although it did successfully deal with the western lands issue. The Confederation’s weakness in handling foreign policy, commerce and the Shays Rebellion spurred the movement to alter the Articles. Instead of revising the Articles, the well-off delegates to the Constitutional Convention created a charter for a whole new government. In a series of compromises, the convention produced a plan that provided for a vigorous central government, a strong executive, the protection for property, while still upholding republican...

...French and Indian war DBQ Essay The French and Indian war was fought to end conflict in America. When it ended it might have appeared that the relations between Great Britain and the English colonists in America would now be put more firmly than ever. They both fought together in a war against the French and its Indian allies, and won very important victories that would allow them to expand the size of the British Empire; but at the end of the war it would alter the relationship between them. As a result of the French and Indian war the relations between Britain and its American colonies were altered in many ways, politically, economic and ideologically. Even though the British and the American colonists had many amazing victories against the French and its Indian allies and was therefore going to bring good to the colonies, but it actually did the opposite. This war altered the economical relations between American colonists and Britain. It was very costly for Britain, even if it brought to its power more land and power, and to cover the costs something had to be done to do so. British of course had to do something to get money to pay its huge war debt and it started directly taxing the colonist, it was doing so by passing several acts.(doc. F). To do so, Britain started passing several acts that made American colonists angry. One of those acts was the stamp act (doc G); it was a law that stated that you had to buy stamps for ships’ papers and legal documents. A lot of people...

...A colony is when an external nation holds control over an area or territory. Colonial rule allowed for Africa to have a reduced amount of conflict and adapt new technologies such as dams, railroads, and telegraph lines. However, it also forced natives out of their homes, caused them to lose traditions, and were put to work in horrible conditions. (SFA 117-118) The conditions the indigenous people were put through are clearly displayed in the illustration titled, “Learning Civilized Ways is Hard Work”. The picture shows two native people carrying a imperialist around like horses. (DBQ Doc.2)A protectorate runs its own day-to-day affairs but has an outside power over them. This type of imperialism allowed the local government to hold the most control over their country and, or area. (SFA 117) A sphere of influence is an area where a foreign nation has control investments and trade. China was one giant example of this type of control.
