1. What was one cause of the Whiskey Rebellion? Hamilton believed the federal government had to establish its right to impose direct taxes. In 1791, at Hamilton’s urging, Congress imposed a tax on the manufacture of whiskey. The new tax enraged western farmers who grew grain and distilled whiskey. In 1794 a full-scale rebellion against the tax erupted in western Pennsylvania. Farmers terrorized tax collectors, stopped court proceedings, and robbed the mail. In August 1794 Washington sent nearly 15,000 troops to crush the Whiskey Rebellion. The huge force caused the rebels to disperse without a fight and clearly established the government’s right to impose taxes. 1. What was one cause of the Whiskey Rebellion? 2.

Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

1. What road played a role in the transportation revolution? As early as 1806, the nation took the first steps toward the building of a transportation revolution when Congress funded the building of a major east-west highway, the National Road. In 1811, laborers started the roadbed westward from the Potomac River at Cumberland, Maryland. By 1818 the roadway reached Wheeling, Virginia (now West Virginia) on the Ohio River. Conestoga wagons drawn by teams of oxen or mules carried migrating pioneers west on this road, while livestock and wagonloads of farm produce traveled the opposite way, toward the markets of the east.
