  Hello that my name is Jack.

• 00:02 - 00:06

  Including this project was done in collaboration What on the

• 00:07 - 00:10

  U. S s early development as a nation in the

• 00:10 - 00:12

  1800 to 18 40 time period.

• 00:13 - 00:15

  Now, the first aspect of this is the social areas

• 00:16 - 00:19

  of the north and the South, respectively, as they became

• 00:19 - 00:21

  two distinct regions in this time period.

• 00:22 - 00:25

  Now the North consisted of in the 18 40 senses.

• 00:26 - 00:30

  There was just over 9.7 billion million people.

• 00:30 - 00:35

  Sorry, with a totals Northern slave count of being just

• 00:35 - 00:36

  over 1000.

• 00:36 - 00:39

  Now the states included Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont in many

• 00:39 - 00:44

  more, with territories such as Wisconsin and Iowa also now

• 00:45 - 00:46

  in the northern society.

• 00:47 - 00:51

  There consisted of immigrants such called old immigrants, but that

• 00:51 - 00:53

  term was coined in the latter years of the 18

• 00:53 - 00:59

  hundreds. But it was, but the immigrants coming to the

• 00:59 - 00:59

  U. S.

• 00:59 - 01:02

  Were seven out of eight, all going to the north

• 01:03 - 01:08

  with just 1/8 of all those immigrants going to the

• 01:08 - 01:13

  south. Now it was a very industrial society, but it

• 01:13 - 01:17

  was dominated more by agricultural and farming outside of it.

• 01:18 - 01:21

  Now, the positive aspects of the North worlds, the diverse

• 01:22 - 01:29

  economy, the education having over 290 one school public schools

• 01:30 - 01:34

  in the north, along with a, uh, industry in the

• 01:34 - 01:40

  north length, the rapid modernization and the equality, meaning the

• 01:41 - 01:46

  abolitionist movement seeking black slaves getting earning their freedom.

• 01:47 - 01:50

  Now in the negative aspects of the North, there was

• 01:50 - 01:57

  pollution in the cities, bad soil, causing less crops to

• 01:57 - 02:00

  come about indentured servitude in workers abuse.

• 02:01 - 02:04

  Now, on the other hand, there is the South, which

• 02:04 - 02:09

  consists of 7.34 built million people, with 2.4 of that.

• 02:09 - 02:13

  Being in being enslaved now consisted of the states, Delaware,

• 02:14 - 02:18

  Maryland, Virginia and more with territories such as Florida, Texas

• 02:18 - 02:18

  and Oklahoma.

• 02:19 - 02:22

  Along with that that was taken in 18 40 now

• 02:23 - 02:26

  in this south, it was more of farming and agricultural

• 02:26 - 02:31

  based society, with it being heavily influenced by that such

• 02:32 - 02:35

  a ZX, the implementation of slavery and in that society,

• 02:36 - 02:40

  with oppression being right regular in that now, the positive

• 02:40 - 02:43

  aspect of that was a very diverse and constant source

• 02:43 - 02:46

  of revenue for many families due to cash crops.

• 02:46 - 02:49

  But the negative aspect of this society was the mass

• 02:50 - 02:55

  racism circling around the topic of slavery.

• 02:56 - 02:58

  Now. On the other hand, there is the political developments

• 02:59 - 03:02

  which caused a strife between the North and the south

• 03:02 - 03:05

  alienating the two now in the north.

• 03:05 - 03:09

  There was the abolition, this movement seeking the complete freedom

• 03:10 - 03:11

  of black slaves.

• 03:13 - 03:17

  And although there wasn't a planned fourth afterwards, it was

• 03:17 - 03:22

  more to relinquish the idea of slavery to create a

• 03:22 - 03:23

  more pure America.

• 03:24 - 03:28

  And New England, due to its international trade, was dominated

• 03:29 - 03:31

  by the photo list up until there are other demise

• 03:33 - 03:38

  in 18 20 due to the federalists opposing very various

• 03:38 - 03:40

  restrictions on international trade.

• 03:41 - 03:45

  Now the Western expansion of the North existed to stop

• 03:45 - 03:46

  the spread of slavery.

• 03:47 - 03:51

  But the Monroe doctrine was also along the lines of

• 03:52 - 03:55

  restricting European expansion in the West.

• 03:56 - 04:01

  Now, another idea that was political was the indentured servitude,

• 04:01 - 04:04

  as slavery was a larger issue.

• 04:05 - 04:08

  Then indentured servitude as it was seen as different in

• 04:09 - 04:13

  indentured servitude, wouldn't end until the first World War, now

• 04:13 - 04:14

  in the south.

• 04:15 - 04:18

  There they were dominated by the Democratic Republican Party, which

• 04:18 - 04:20

  would soon take hold of the entire nation.

• 04:21 - 04:24

  But then see the divergence of Democrats and Republicans.

• 04:25 - 04:28

  Now, many of the southern issues or based on slavery,

• 04:29 - 04:33

  such as slave such a slavery in the 3/5 compromise

• 04:34 - 04:38

  of giving five slaves three votes, but it was taken

• 04:38 - 04:40

  control of by white voters.

• 04:41 - 04:43

  Now there was a slow expansion and fear of Northern

• 04:43 - 04:49

  political dominance, but it was followed by the aggressive expansion

• 04:49 - 04:50

  out West.

• 04:51 - 04:55

  Now out west, there were nine new states admitted between

• 04:55 - 04:59

  1818 40 west of the Appalachian, and this created the

• 04:59 - 05:02

  universal white male hood suffrage.

• 05:03 - 05:06

  And this idea was that all white men could vote.

• 05:07 - 05:11

  And as slavery expanded westward, abolitionist off the North countered

• 05:12 - 05:13

  this by moving west as well.

• 05:14 - 05:17

  Now there was a shift in power from federalist to

• 05:17 - 05:19

  Democratic Republicans after 18 20.

• 05:20 - 05:22

  Because of this, because it gave more people that oppose

• 05:23 - 05:26

  federalist the ability to vote and vote them out of

• 05:26 - 05:32

  office. Now, this ability, the universal suffrage white men was

• 05:32 - 05:36

  formally adopted by all states in 18 56 and it

• 05:36 - 05:39

  was more of an It was more enacted for political

• 05:39 - 05:44

  power and also the idea that in the War of

• 05:44 - 05:48

  18 12, many individuals went to fight for their for

• 05:48 - 05:48

  their country.

• 05:49 - 05:52

  But they cannot vote to determine the future of that

• 05:52 - 05:54

  country now.

• 05:54 - 05:59

  Another aspect of political the political sphere was the Missouri

• 05:59 - 06:02

  compromise, which was between the North and the South States

• 06:02 - 06:02

  over slavery.

• 06:03 - 06:06

  It was to create a balance of power and also

• 06:07 - 06:13

  a prohibited slavery above the 30 36 30 parallel except

• 06:13 - 06:13

  for Missouri.

• 06:14 - 06:16

  But it was later repelled by Can the Kansas Nebraska

• 06:17 - 06:17

  Act in 18 54.

• 06:18 - 06:21

  Now another idea is economic.

• 06:22 - 06:26

  The economic power properties of the two areas of the

• 06:26 - 06:29

  north and south, with the North having a very industrialized

• 06:30 - 06:35

  city but a very agricultural based, um economy outside of

• 06:35 - 06:40

  it, consisting of maritime trade, agricultural trade such as farming

• 06:40 - 06:45

  and animal husbandry, along with lumber of of the very

• 06:47 - 06:50

  good and rich would in the north.

• 06:51 - 06:54

  Now from 18 40 from 1818 40 they were over

• 06:54 - 07:00

  12 economic disasters, and the issues involving international trade severely

• 07:02 - 07:05

  impact of the North, such as the Embargo Act, which

• 07:05 - 07:09

  completely cut off all trade of the North from the

• 07:09 - 07:12

  rest of the world, and its idea was to make

• 07:13 - 07:15

  sure that the US would get recognized, but it actually

• 07:16 - 07:17

  did the exact opposite.

• 07:18 - 07:23

  Now the exports of the north were textile, lumber, furs,

• 07:24 - 07:32

  mining products, shipping and commercial goods, and the northern industrialization

• 07:33 - 07:36

  was heavily reliant on the idea of international trade.

• 07:38 - 07:41

  Now southern economy was defined by one thing and one

• 07:42 - 07:42

  thing alone.

• 07:42 - 07:48

  Cash crops, which was the idea of just making a

• 07:49 - 07:51

  crop just to sell it, not to actually eat it

• 07:52 - 07:54

  or have it for yourself now.

• 07:55 - 08:01

  While slaves, slave importing became illegal, save population inside the

• 08:01 - 08:07

  US grew expansively and cotton because of this group, and

• 08:08 - 08:11

  it became of the biggest cash crop of the South.

• 08:12 - 08:15

  Now, another aspect of the north and the South respectively,

• 08:15 - 08:18

  was religion, with the religion taking hold in the north

• 08:18 - 08:19

  and the south.

• 08:19 - 08:23

  Both complete differences within north, having the second grade awakening

• 08:24 - 08:29

  in 17 98 18 30 with before the 19th century

• 08:30 - 08:34

  Congratulations lists Anglicans and Quakers were the largest denominations.

• 08:35 - 08:39

  But after the 18th, but after 1800 of Anglican method,

• 08:40 - 08:44

  Methodism and Baptists became the fastest growing religions with having

• 08:44 - 08:51

  a populist idea and anti slavery focus and along with

• 08:51 - 08:55

  free will and your universal salvation, Tze have which meant

• 08:55 - 08:57

  that they were more directed for the people rather than

• 08:58 - 09:01

  for the rich elitists now.

• 09:02 - 09:05

  Another thing is, is that the the North and the

• 09:05 - 09:10

  South both world were Onley Christian denomination denominations at this

• 09:10 - 09:15

  point. But the South vastly differed as rather than promoting

• 09:16 - 09:21

  people, the Southern religion more focused on justifying the institution

• 09:22 - 09:22

  of slavery.

• 09:23 - 09:28

  And that's mainly it's Southern, the southern impact of religion.

• 09:29 - 09:32

  And that's the sole reason why it was was implemented

• 09:33 - 09:38

  now. Slaves were actually converted to Christianity from the exposure

• 09:38 - 09:42

  of their masters, but other than that, slavery was mainly

• 09:42 - 09:44

  used for a slaver.

• 09:45 - 09:47

  Religion was more used for slavery.

• 09:49 - 09:51

  Now, on the other half, there is the military aspects

• 09:51 - 09:56

  consisting of well, America only fought in six wars for

• 09:56 - 10:00

  over 40 years and that consisted of the quality wore

• 10:00 - 10:02

  the first bar reward, the War of 18 12, the

• 10:03 - 10:05

  Creek Core and Second Barbary War, along with the American

• 10:06 - 10:09

  Indian World, which which existed from the start of the

• 10:10 - 10:11

  nation up until 1924.

• 10:13 - 10:16

  Now, these wars were very short lived on Lee, existing

• 10:16 - 10:21

  for just under four years with the second Barbary were

• 10:21 - 10:26

  Onley happening for a couple of days now, the international

• 10:27 - 10:30

  seat was more found in the North, with most naval

• 10:31 - 10:34

  assets and commander were in the North along with its

• 10:35 - 10:39

  power in of the international scale was in the north.

• 10:40 - 10:42

  But the reason for the North was because it was

• 10:42 - 10:45

  more of a shipping yard and was able to pump

• 10:45 - 10:47

  out more ships and warships.

• 10:48 - 10:51

  Now the reason for the Navy was to protect its

• 10:52 - 10:57

  merchants, and the reason for the Navy was protecting.

• 10:58 - 11:00

  And in the early 18 hundreds, the U.

• 11:01 - 11:03

  S merchants were being attacked and disrupted by foreign powers

• 11:04 - 11:08

  such as parts and other and European powers such as

• 11:08 - 11:09

  the British or French.

• 11:09 - 11:13

  And as a response, there were declarations of war deploying

• 11:14 - 11:18

  naval fleets as a show of power, tariffs, sanctions and

• 11:18 - 11:21

  also in the most infamous the embargo Act, which completely

• 11:22 - 11:23

  destroyed the American economy.

• 11:24 - 11:28

  Now, with the embargo act in there, the economy and

• 11:28 - 11:30

  the neighbor world we can buy buy it so that

• 11:31 - 11:36

  the that it went from a international rising power hash

• 11:36 - 11:39

  to a puny rising nation.

• 11:39 - 11:42

  But it completely was hampered by that now.

• 11:43 - 11:46

  The state militia, on the other hand, had was respected

• 11:47 - 11:49

  to each state, and each was its own size, and

• 11:50 - 11:52

  it wasn't regulated by the nation.

• 11:52 - 11:53

  But although the nation.

• 11:54 - 11:55

  The state, the U.

• 11:55 - 11:59

  S. Had its national military three state militia was a

• 11:59 - 11:59

  larger body.

• 12:01 - 12:05

  Now, across all frontiers, there were fighting, along with state

• 12:05 - 12:11

  boundaries, to quell issues such as natives and also between

• 12:11 - 12:16

  Americans over what's stake out what portion as state lines

• 12:16 - 12:17

  were sometimes undefined.

• 12:18 - 12:22

  But also Southern states used militias in slave revolts to

• 12:22 - 12:27

  quell the issues such as Nate Turner's Rebelling Yeah, Now,

• 12:28 - 12:33

  technology was a very vast thing, with the two coming

• 12:34 - 12:36

  from very different aspects in two different economies.

• 12:37 - 12:41

  Now the North had a very industrial lies society, with

• 12:41 - 12:46

  the first industrialization industrial revolution from 17 60 to 18,

• 12:47 - 12:49

  40 Onley being felt in the latter years of the

• 12:49 - 12:54

  that with in depth with several innovations such as the

• 12:54 - 12:57

  power loom in textiles to steam engines in steam power

• 12:58 - 13:01

  are the hot iron vast or the cast iron, the

• 13:02 - 13:05

  or cast iron in iron making and machine tools consisting

• 13:05 - 13:09

  of the screw cutting lathes and cylinder bore machine boring

• 13:09 - 13:11

  machines and the milling machine.

• 13:12 - 13:15

  Now, this idea was also followed by the steam power

• 13:16 - 13:21

  which created the beginning of the railroads, which connected, but

• 13:21 - 13:26

  the railroads weren't in comparison to the idea of still

• 13:26 - 13:27

  canals and waterways.

• 13:28 - 13:32

  But railroads roads were more used as completions of that

• 13:33 - 13:38

  now. Standardization in the first industrial civilization Industrial revolution was

• 13:39 - 13:40

  more of a set standard.

• 13:41 - 13:43

  And, as you can see in the world, and it

• 13:43 - 13:46

  was more set the tone for what everything would be

• 13:46 - 13:49

  set to such a screws would fit more screws, bolts.

• 13:50 - 13:54

  And it was more that everything fit everything rather than

• 13:54 - 13:57

  it have you having to go to one area to

• 13:57 - 14:00

  receiving the thing that would fit the one everything from

• 14:00 - 14:01

  that area.

• 14:01 - 14:05

  Yeah, now, on the other hand, Southern technology or really

• 14:05 - 14:07

  lacked off, and the only thing that came out of

• 14:08 - 14:10

  that was the Kalenjin in the early 1800.

• 14:11 - 14:14

  But other than that, it made the South of economic

• 14:15 - 14:18

  powerhouse. But before that, it was more a physical labor

• 14:18 - 14:23

  job due to know industrialization in this north and the

• 14:23 - 14:23

  South. Sorry.

• 14:24 - 14:27

  Now, on the other hand, intellectual property was a huge

• 14:27 - 14:28

  thing in the North.

• 14:29 - 14:33

  It's all rise in multiple different philosophy movements such as

• 14:33 - 14:37

  transcendence is, um, which was American romanticism, which focused more

• 14:38 - 14:41

  on everyone had innate goodness but was corrupted by society.

• 14:41 - 14:45

  It was in Indian and Hindu Hinduism influence.

• 14:46 - 14:50

  And it was so much to you Unitarian ism in

• 14:50 - 14:54

  it. Also followed by a Hellenism and the melting pot

• 14:55 - 14:58

  idea. Now the melting pot was to see that all

• 14:58 - 14:58

  the culmination.
