THE BIRTH OF A NATION The End of the Revolutionary War

STARTER – SEPTEMBER 19TH What kind of things does a brand new nation need? Why? List 3.

REVIEW  Colonists grew tired of taxation without representation, many specific concerns  Examples: Townshend Duties, Sugar Act, Stamp Act, Tea Act, “Intolerable” Acts  Began to rebel against Great Britain  Declaration of Independence/ Thomas Jefferson- listed grievances against the king  Fought a war against British, won our independence!

THE TREATY OF PARIS, 1783  Officially ended the American Revolution  Set many geographic borders, including U.S. and Canada  Florida was returned to Spain  British merchants must be paid for lost items  Loyalists must be paid for lost property

AFTERMATH  Penalties inflicted on Loyalists  Some Loyalists were “tarred and feathered” and put on ships bound for Canada or Great Britain  Then the task at hand became: how to forge a new government? Many problems loomed ahead!!

ASSIGNMENTS  You will assume the identity of an American Colonist right after winning independence. You will write a letter to whomever discussing your hopes, fears or uncertainty you feel as a citizen of a new nation.
