Unit I Review of American Revolution

Unit Objectives  SWBAT analyze origins of US political system.  SWBAT demonstrate an understanding of the relationship of geogeaphic factors on the development of culture and technology in the US.  SWBAT demonstrate an understanding of economi principles, institutions, and processes which have become the economic foundation of the US.

Mercantilism  Mercantilism is an economic theory that holds that the prosperity of a nation is dependent upon its supply of capital, and that the global volume of international trade is "unchangeable." Economic assets or capital, are represented by bullion (gold, silver, and trade value) held by the state, which is best increased through a positive balance of trade with other nations (exports minus imports). Mercantilism suggests that the ruling government should advance these goals by playing a protectionist role in the economy; by encouraging exports and discouraging imports, notably through the use of tariffs and subsidies economic theory capitalglobal volumeinternational tradebullion balance of tradeprotectionisttariffseconomic theory capitalglobal volumeinternational tradebullion balance of tradeprotectionisttariffs

Comparing the North and South  Southern US primarily agricultural  Rise of plantations  Most people were poor white farmers.  Prosperous land owners controlled most farmland.  Slaves made up the bottom part of society.

The North  The North was largely industrial; processing the crops from the south.  Port cities grow with the expansion of trade.  Some farming took place in the north; shorter growing season, rocky soil.

Cultural Change  The Enlightenment – sparked by European Rennaisance, people begin to question whether or not the Earth was the center of the universe.  Due to scientific advances, people start to question religon.  Philosphers value reason and science

Benjamin Franklin  Embraced the idea of obtaining truth through experimentation and reason.

The Enlightenment and Politics  Thomas Jefferson felt that individuals are born with natural rights that the government must respect.  Enlightmenment principles lead colonists to question authority of British Monarchy.  Why?

The Great Awakening  Attempt to restore the intensity and dedication to the Puritan church as colonists relax their views.  Puritans practiced religious tolerance, didn’t limit voting rights, liked nice houses, clothes, and food.

Effects of Enlightenment and Great Awakening  Question traditional authority  Both stressed the importance of the individual  Stressed Human reason  De-emphasized the role of church authority  Led to questioning British authority  American Revolution

French and Indian War  France and Britain clash over empires in North America  George Washington gained experience as an officer.  Britis gain Iroquois allies in the northeast, help them defeat the French  Great Britain controls most of North America
