U.S History Timeline

Through looking at the U.S History timeline in class, I remembered the chronological order of the events leading up to the civil war. I learned about the Articles of Confederation and the Constitutional Convention, I learned that New lands came from the Louisiana Purchase and the Mexico War, I learned about the Missouri Compromise, and I learned about the founding of the Republican party. The U.S grew as a Nation because the colonists banned together, acquired more land, established a military and government to stay afloat, and grew in population. The biggest challenges for the new nation were establish a government that could keep the country afloat, and establishing an economy that could support the country. The Citizens of the U.S had to agree with each other, to keep the country united, and the compromises that they made were the reasons that the U.S stayed united until the civil war.
