...thirty-two years ago, two distinctive countries started to have disputes about the Monarch power. By having to many laws being restricted on to the colonists’ and having to many freedoms being eliminated, the colonists started to build up anger and aggravations. Which soon lead to two revolutions breaking out: The Glorious Revolution and The American Revolution. The American Revolution happened in 1775 by the colonists’ who wanted freedom from British Rules. The independence they desired sparked a rebellion, but what truly sparked the rebellious flame happened during the Glorious Revolution of 1688-89. It was the first act of insubordination against the Royal Government , which make these two revolutionary wars the most interesting piece of history. These two revolution wars did share a few characteristics; they both wanted to reduce the power of the Monarch and focused on some extend of democracy and they both hated James II. However, these two-revolutionary wars are not the same at all. In fact, they differ from each other and...

...Prompt: Compare and contrast the effect of the American industrial revolution on the north and the south. The Industrial Revolution was the significant revolution that changes the way people lives and worked. The revolution, which involved many changes in manufacturing, transportation, and communication, began in England in the middle 1700s and spread both to the United States and to continental Europe. The Industrial Revolution occurred in America in the end of 18th century and the first half 19th century. This Revolution effected both the South and North America. Indeed, the innovation and the modern machines turned the north into a manufacturing region and allow America to manufacture goods by itself. In contrast, the South still be loyal with agricultural society and received a majority goods from the North. My followed essay is going to clarify the different effects of the American Industrial Revolution on the North and the South. In the North, the Industrial Revolution began in the textile industry. The textile industry, which increased the gross output of textiles from 2.6 million USD in 1778 to 68.6 million USD in 1860, are quickly extended. Britain had forbidden the engineers, mechanics, and tool-makers to leave the country because they did not want to spread their secrets of industrialization. Nevertheless, in 1789, a young British mill worker, Samuel Slater, came to America, brought new manufacturing technologies from Britain and built the first American factory...

...Revolutions Unit Paper Alex Koscick March 4,2012 Revolutions Paper Between the French, English, and American Revolutions, there were likes and dislikes between why they occurred in the first place, and how they came to an end. This paper will compare and contrast these wars, and help explain these likes and dislikes. One of the first similarities in why these great Revolutions begun, is that the people were unanimously angered by something that their government had done, (Monarchies in this situation.) The second similarity of the cause of these revolutions is that they the common folk felt that they weren't even within their rights to make their own choices, or that they didn't have a voice in their government. The third similarity in the causes of these revolutions is that all of these countries had enough people, to be able to make a large impression if they rose up. I believe myself that if they didn't have the forces to execute such an uprising, they probably wouldn't have even tried to take down their respective government/monarchy. Some general similarities, not necessarily based on causes and effects, are the following. All of the Revolutions discussed, were fought by the common people. All overthrew a monarchy ( King & Queen.) These next following sentences will explain some of the different reasons that the Revolutions discussed were caused. Singularly, one of the main reasons the English Revolution began was due to the fact there was an heir...

... The first is the importance of the Civil War and Reconstruction in setting the stage for the great industrial growth and development in the late 19th century. The second theme is the impact of industrialization in late 19th century America--economically, politically, socially, and culturally. A third theme centered on the emergence of an aggressive America foreign policy that in general sought to export American values and ideas so as to bring order to the international scene. The fourth major theme is the rise of progressivism in the first two decades of this century. Like the unions and Populists before them, the Progressives responded to the tremendous impact of industrialization and corporate capitalism on American society, however with much more success. A fifth theme centers on the American entrance into World War I and the war's impact on American society and politics. A sixth theme is the conflict over values and power in American society. Different groups (African-Americans, KKK, nativist/anti-immigrant, socialists, women, etc) with their own unique visions of what American society should be came into conflict over whose vision should predominate. A final theme is emergence of a powerful, welfare state in the form of the New Deal which finally addressed in a large-scale and systematic effort the negative consequences inherent in capitalism and industrialization. Below are some questions that should help you prepare for the first midterm. These are not the actual questions...

...Contrasting the Declaration of Independence vs. Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen World of History after 1500 July 5, 2015 Comparing and Contrasting the Declaration of Independence vs. Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen Throughout the course of the week we were asked to compare and contrast the two given documents titled, The Declaration of Independence & Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen. Before we begin to discuss the difference and similarities, we must first understand what each Declaration stands for. The Declaration of Independence is defined as, “The formal statement written by Thomas Jefferson declaring the freedom of the thirteen American colonies from Great Britain.” (LoveToKnow, 2015). The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen is defined as, “One of the basic charters of human liberties, containing the principles that inspired the French Revolution. Its 17 articles, adopted between August 20 and August 26, 1789, by France’s National Assembly, served as the preamble to the Constitution of 1791.” (Britannica Inc., 2015). Now that we have a better understanding of both Declarations, we can begin to compare and contrast. After reading both Declarations I found various differences and similarities. These Declarations were both pushing the rights of freedom & equality within almost the same decade of the 1700’s. This is supported strongly through the Declaration of Independence; stating that the people of the...

...To what extent does the term ‘American exceptionalism’ necessarily imply U.S. superiority? Red Reference Blue Title Purple reword to be better Come back to with evidence or etc ( real example) (also a scholar arguing for and one against with my opining in the end little conculsion) “American Execptionalism” is theoretically classified as America being qualitatively different () from other countries. Therefore in terms of America’s identity historically, politically, economically and socially, these should be understood differently because America was created differently. Hence why the idea of American exceptionalism’ stems from the principle of America being unique. Furthermore, In addition to this the idea that “American exceptionalism” implies superiority is a key concept to embrace and identify through out America history, contemporary politics, foreign policy and social culture. However, due to the essay title I will be analyzing and examining to what extent is “American exceptionalism’ identified as U.S superiority. Although due to the wide context of the theoretical term ‘American exceptionalism’’ and word limit. I will focus on the significant impacts that has led to the idea of ‘American exceptionalism’ to be implied as U.S superiority such as American history, foreign policy, economic and social culture.

...Cause and Outcome of War 1754-1815 Abstract This paper will compare and contrast the French and Indian War, American Revolution, and the War of 1812. All three wars were fought over land or expansion in one form or another. The French and Indian War was fought because both countries believed they had the right to the Ohio River Valley. This caused Britain to tax the colonist and place restrictions that led to the American Revolution. The American Revolution gave the colonies their freedom from British rule and the ability to form their nation and laws. Great Britain never respected the United States as a sovereign nation. Due to the conflict with France both France and Britain restricted U.S. imports because of the belief that the U.S. was supplying the enemy. The embargoes on American shipments along with the Native American attacks on colonist caused the War of 1812. The greatest accomplishment of the War of 1812 was the era of good feelings. Cause and Outcome of War 1754-1815 The cause and outcome of the French and Indian War, American Revolution, and the War of 1812 had many similarities. The wars started with the French and Indian war that was fought over the Ohio River Valley, which began in 1754 ending with the Treaty of Paris in 1763. The American Revolutionary War was fought over the colonist not given the same rights as Englishmen along with the taxation of the colonist that began 1775 and ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The War of 1812 was fought because...
