  1. Unit 4 Notes: Westward Expansion Part 2 U.S. History & The Constitution Mr. Weathers

  2. Today’s Lesson Standard / Indicator Standard USHC-2: The student will demonstrate an understanding of how economic developments and the westward movement impacted regional differences and democracy in the early nineteenth century. USHC-2.3 Compare the economic development in different regions (the South, the North, and the West) of the United States during the early nineteenth century, including ways that economic policy contributed to political controversies. The Erie Canal

  3. Regional Economies Create Differences (pgs. 212-218) Define the American Industrial Revolution (1820-1870) Change in social & economic organization that resulted from the replacement of hand tools & cottage industries with machines & the development of large-scale industrial production. What impact did it have on the US? Ready available use of new technologies, such as textile & metal production, transformed the Northeast US into an economy of factories & manufacturing operations. Slater Mill: 1st Textile Mill in America Pawtucket, RI (1793)

  4. Regional Economies Create Differences (pgs. 212-218) Geographic Factors North = safe harbors; fast flowing rivers. South = fertile land (cash crops). West= fertile farm land & mineral deposits. Economies North: industry & finance (banks) - capital ($$$) earned through the shipping industry = investment in factories. - attracted immigrants (Germans & Irish) to work in factories.  South: invested in slavery & agriculture (slave labor) - Slavery’s move west into Missouri, Texas, California, & Kansas = increased North/South tensions. West: largely agricultural.

  5. Regional Economies Create Differences (pgs. 212-218) Henry Clay & the American System (1815) - Political alliance = traded west’s support for the tariff for north’s support of internal improvements & cheap land. • Threatened South’s economic & political interests & added animosity between the regions. American System’s Main Goals 1.) Tariff: aid the growth of U.S. industries = protected American-made goods. 2.) 2nd National Bank: aided exchange of goods across regions - established national currency. 3.) InternalImprovements: assisted trade by improving transportation. “American System”

  8. Regional Economies Create Differences (pgs. 212-218) Regional Views Towards Protective Tariffs North: favored tariffs = protect their infant industries from foreign competition. South: against protective tariffs (Nullification Crisis), opposed internal improvements, but liked cheap land (move west = plant more cotton). West: accepted in exchange for support of internal improvements (i.e. roads & canals) & cheap land.

  9. Regional Economies Create Differences (pgs. 212-218) Regional Views Towards a 2nd National Bank North: favored a National Bank. South & West: against a National Bank = gave too much economic power to rich Northeasterners. - favored state banksthat would offer cheap loans.
