Our first government

George Washington He received every vote possible in 1789 to become our nation’s first president His cabinet included Henry Knox, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander Hamilton

Alexander Hamilton 32 year old secretary of treasury Goals: – Industrialization – A good relationship with Great Britain – Standing army/navy – Central Bank – Federalist Party

Thomas Jefferson Author of the Declaration of Independence Saw a country of self-sufficient farmers Wanted minimal government interference Valued our relationship with the French Democratic-Republican Party

Farewell George He was president for 2 four year terms He gave several warnings in his farewell address – No alliances with Europeans – NO political parties – Avoid sectionalism (division according to areas) Did we listen?

The first political parties For the election of 1796, Republicans supported Jefferson Federalists supported John Adams Adams wins the presidency and Jefferson is his VP

The French Revolution The big question on everyone’s minds was “should we get involved?” Citizen Genet from France comes over to try to get the United States involved Do we owe them anything?

An Expanding Nation People began to move west across the Appalachian mountains for cheap land These people were called pioneers Trailblazers like Daniel Boone carved out paths for people to follow along the way

Fear of France In 1801 Thomas Jefferson became the third president of the United States In France Napoleon ruled and he had taken over much of Europe Jefferson decided to purchase New Orleans from France to stop them

Answer these questions Which side do you think you would have fallen on and why? Should we have backed the French in their revolution? Why or why not? Do you think you could have survived as a pioneer in the early 1800s?
