1. Louisiana Purchase 1803: Napoleon took Louisiana from Spain and later he wanted to sell it so he asked for an offer. Thomas Jefferson sent James Monroe and Robert Livingston to buy the Mississippi area, but instead Napoleon just sold all of Louisiana to the U.S. for $15 million dollars, much cheaper than it should have been. This doubled the size of the U.S.
2. Embargo Act 1807: created neutral trade with France and Britain in effort to have them see how important American trade is and for both Countries to respect America’s neutrality. The Embargo Act ended up hurting American merchants since they weren’t being paid.
War of 1812: Yes, I would have declared war on Great Britain. After the war of Trafalgar France decided to attack Britain with his allies. This resulted in the British blockading trade. The blockade was not good for American shipping, furthermore, British impressments of American sailors and the Chesapeake-Leopard Affair. The war ended in stalemate and produced the Treaty of Ghent; both countries come to a compromise.
3. Monroe Doctrine 1823: Basically, U.S. told Europe “stay out of our business and we’ll stay out of yours.” U.S. was no longer open to European colonization and they wanted no part in European affairs and they wanted Europe to stay out of American affairs. Going against this would cause danger to their safety.
The impact of the Monroe Doctrine: kept France and Spain out of the U.S. It also caused Latin Americans to cause a bitter resentment towards the U.S. This policy stood for over a 100 years. It has become the basis of our foreign policy today because we don’t want that much war with other nations except when we are being threatened then we have to consider going to war with other countries and as such we need allies.
4. Westward Expansion: The Louisiana Purchase made the expeditions of Louis and Clark (1804) and Zebulon Pike (1821) made it possible to expand to those territories, therefore they people could expand west to those areas.
The American people and economy benefited from this because they no longer had to be confided to one area and the economy grew as people moved to the west.
The American system: addressed the issues of
Protective tariffs: whether or not people should support high tariffs to protect American Industries.
Federal revenue: maintenance for high public land prices.,
Bank of U.S.: Stabilize the currency and rein in risky states and local banks.
Roads and canals: system of internal improvements, connect the nation, financed by tariffs and land sale revenues.
