The Road to Revolution and a New Nation UNIT 4 | EARLY MODERN: GLOBAL INTERACTIONS UNIT 3 THE ROAD TO REVOLUTION AND A NEW NATION 1 UNIT 3 THE ROAD TO REVOLUTION AND A NEW NATION UNIT 43 | EARLYTHE ROAD MODERN: TO REVOLUTION GLOBAL INTERACTIONS AND A NEW NATION UNIT 3 | OVERVIEW, UNIT OBJECTIVES, ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS Britain’s attempts to assert tighter control over its North American colonies and the colonial resolve to pursue self-government led to a colonial independence movement and the Revolutionary War. The competition among the British, French, and American Indians for economic and political advantage in North America culminated in the Seven Years’ War (the French and Indian War), in which Britain defeated France and allied American Indians. The desire of many colonists to assert ideals of self-government in the face of renewed British imperial efforts led to a colonial independence movement and war with Britain. The American Revolution’s democratic and republican ideals inspired new experiments with different forms of government. The ideals that inspired the revolutionary cause reflected new beliefs about politics, religion, and society that had been developing over the course of the 18th Century. After declaring independence, American political leaders created new constitutions and declarations of rights that articulated the role of the state and federal governments while protecting individual liberties and limiting both centralized power and excessive popular influence. New forms of national culture and political institutions developed in the United States alongside continued regional variations and differences over economic, political, social, and foreign policy issues. Migration within North America and competition over resources, boundaries, and trade intensified conflicts among peoples and nations. In the decades after American independence, interactions among different groups resulted in competition for resources, shifting alliances, and cultural blending.

The competition among the British, French, and American Indians for economic and political advantage in North America culminated in the Seven Years’ War (the French and Indian War), in which Britain defeated France and allied American Indians. Colonial rivalry intensified between Britain and France in the mid-18th Century, as the growing population of the British colonies expanded into the interior of North America, threatening French–Indian trade networks and American Indian autonomy. After the British victory, imperial officials’ attempts to prevent colonists from moving westward generated colonial opposition, while native groups sought to both continue trading with Europeans and resist the encroachments of colonists on tribal lands. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS • How did concepts of American identity and democratic ideals emerge and shape the movement for independence? • Why did the colonists rebel against Britain? • How did the Declaration of Independence shape belief systems and resistance movements throughout the western hemisphere? • How and why did the first major party system develop in the early republic? 1 LESSON 3.1 | SEED OF LIBERTY & COLONIAL SOCIETY LESSON 3.1.0 | OVERVIEW | Learning Outcomes, Vocabulary, & Outline LEARNING OUTCOMES • Explain the causes of migration to colonial North America and, later, the United States, and analyze immigration’s effects on U.S. society. • Explain how popular movements, reform efforts, and activist groups have sought to change American society and institutions. • Explain how cultural interaction, cooperation, competition, and conflict between empires, nations, and peoples have influenced political, economic, and social developments in North America.

  • 'O'er Mountains and Rivers': Community and Commerce
    MCCARTNEY, SARAH ELLEN, Ph.D. ‘O’er Mountains and Rivers’: Community and Commerce in the Greenbrier Valley in the Late Eighteenth Century. (2018) Directed by Dr. Greg O’Brien. 464 pp. In the eighteenth-century Greenbrier River Valley of present-day West Virginia, identity was based on a connection to “place” and the shared experiences of settlement, commerce, and warfare as settlers embraced an identity as Greenbrier residents, Virginians, and Americans. In this dissertation, I consider the Greenbrier Valley as an early American place participating in and experiencing events and practices that took place throughout the American colonies and the Atlantic World, while simultaneously becoming a discrete community and place where these experiences formed a unique Greenbrier identity. My project is the first study of the Greenbrier Valley to situate the region temporally within the revolutionary era and geographically within the Atlantic World. For many decades Greenbrier Valley communities were at the western edge of Virginia’s backcountry settlements in what was often an “ambiguous zone” of European control and settlers moved in and out of the region with the ebb and flow of frontier violence. Settlers arriving in the region came by way of the Shenandoah Valley where they traveled along the Great Wagon Road before crossing into the Greenbrier region through the mountain passes and rivers cutting across the Allegheny Mountains. Without a courthouse or church, which were the typical elements of community in eighteenth- century Virginia society, until after the American Revolution, Greenbrier settlers forged the bonds of their community through other avenues, including the shared hardships of the settlement experience.

  • Name Pittsburgh Resident Action Comment Patrick Beckhorn
    Name Pittsburgh Action Comment Resident Patrick Beckhorn Yes Remove Columbus was a delusional racist slave owner who caused genocide, so why exalt him by erecting and protecting a large public monument to him? One would only do that if they were ignorant of history. Well, they might do it if they were ignorant of history, but they would also do it if they were a racist piece of shit... Rohit Kartan Yes Remove Emilia Farmerie-Rishel No Remove Ty Hinkle Yes Remove Karsen Shoger Yes Remove The Columbus statue glorifies the history of colonialism, which caused extreme amounts of harm to native peoples in America as well as the environment in America. It is time to let go of these relics that glorify a destructive history, filled with violence and death, as many other cities across America are doing. Keeping the Columbus statue broadcasts a clear message exalting the history of lack of care for humanity of colonists and imperialists. If we want to stand by the ideals of equity and social justice, removing this symbol of inequity and harm from our city. Daniel Galvin Yes Remove The Christopher Columbus statue in Shenley Park should be immediately removed with all expediency - which is why the process of replacement or alternation, and accompanying delays, is unacceptable as well. The fact that it has remained there this long is an embarrassment to Pittsburgh, and an insult to the native people whose land this was for thousands of years. For native people - including friends of mine whose viewpoints I greatly value - this is tantamount to a statue of Hitler in a Jewish neighborhood, or a monument commemorating the cross-Atlantic slave trade being erected in a black neighborhood.

  • Abstract Mortimer, Loren Michael
    ABSTRACT MORTIMER, LOREN MICHAEL. “Pageants of Sovereignty: ‘Merciless Indian Savages’ and American Nation-State Formation on the Northern Borderlands, 1774-1775.” (Under the direction of Dr. Craig Thompson Friend). When Thomas Jefferson denounced the Native American nations residing west of the thirteen colonies as “Merciless Indian Savages” in the Declaration of Independence, he willfully misrepresented the negotiated peace that prevailed in the borderlands in the summer of 1776. The British empire had lost its grip on its North American frontiers as early as 1774 with the death of Sir William Johnson, the superintendent for Indian Affairs. Presiding over a personal and political frontier empire of his own making, his larger than life persona substituted for enduring imperial institutions on the colonial frontier. His 1774 death left a power vacuum, which ignited long smoldering conflicts between competing colonial and native factions. Like the colonists, Native American nations had their own grievances with the British Crown and North America erupted in concurrent revolutions in 1775 as colonial and indigenous nations sought to dismantle British North America, replacing the monolithic empire with a plurality of sovereign nations—indigenous and European in origin. Within weeks of convening in 1775, the Second Continental Congress dispatched envoys to the northern frontier to negotiate treaties of neutrality. In the 1775 treaty councils at Albany and Fort Pitt, Native American and local colonial leaders affirmed Congress as an independent, sovereign body with legitimate diplomatic powers. Fear of a British-led Indian war compelled the colonies to cede the power of Indian diplomacy to the embryonic central government; it is a power the federal government has never relinquished.

Research funding from the history department, the graduate school, and British Studies at the University of Texas at Austin, the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, the David Library of the American Revolution, the Huntington Library, the Massachusetts Historical Society, and the New York Public Library allowed me to bury myself in manuscripts and microfilm. Two additional writing fellowships from the McNeil Center for Early American Studies and International Security Studies at Yale enabled me to write my dissertation surrounded by supportive, welcoming, and very smart people. My committee has provided me with the feedback I needed to make this work as strong as I could. Carolyn Eastman constantly pushed me to ask big questions about my sources, and to separate the forest from the trees. Neil Kamil gently let me know when I overstated the size and importance of the former.

  • Clash at Point Pleasant
    RW01e01.qxp 11/5/2007 11:54 AM Page 21 CHAPTER 1 Clash at Point Pleasant “As Israel mourned and her daughters did weep for Saul and his hosts on the mount of Gilbo, Virginia will mourn for her heroes who sleep in tombs on the bank of the O-hi-O.” Unknown In the fall of 1774 the royal governor of Virginia, John Murray, Lord Dunmore, in violation of British policy and most likely for personal land acquisition, committed the backwoods militia of that province to a short, violent war with the Shawnee Indians and allied tribes, an action his- torically connoted as Dunmore’s War. The Boston Tea Party, so famously enacted in December 1773, had sig- naled the resolution of some Americans to assume control of their own affairs, particularly economic endeavors. But in the west, along the frontier, equally important were the implications of the royal proclamation of 1763, establish- ing demarcation boundaries along the crest of the Appalachian Mountain, separating Indian Territory from land available for colonial settlement. This attempt to sep- arate two quarreling parties was not, however, backed by redcoat garrisons and was largely ignored by the hordes of white immigrants flocking to the frontier. 21 RW01e01.qxp 11/5/2007 11:54 AM Page 22 22 THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR IN THE SOUTHERN BACK COUNTRY In 1768, when a treaty negotiated at Fort Stanwix realigned the 1763 demarcation boundaries between set- tlers and Native Americans, colonial migration westward dramatically increased, as, correspondingly, did Indian aggression. The newly aligned boundary permitted white settlers to advance adjacent to the banks of the Ohio River, further compressing the eastern Indian tribes into a region north and west of that river’s great curving arc.

  • Abenaki Backgrounder 1749 - 1777
    ABENAKI BACKGROUNDER 1749 - 1777 The Abenaki are a coalition of Algonquin- speaking peoples who live in southern Quebec, Maine and Northern New England. They were allied with the Micmac, the Sokoki, Passamaquoddy, and Penobscots of Maine. By the Seventeenth Century, they occupied a precarious position between the Iroquois to the west, the French colonies to the north, and the English colonies to the south. Odanak, or Saint Francis, on the St. Lawrence River in Quebec emerged as a mission village and refugee center for Abenakis fleeing the Iroquois onslaught during the “Beaver Wars” of the 1670’s and 1680’s. During these Wars, the Iroquois waged massive campaigns to seize furs, trapping grounds, and especially captives among French-allied Indians of the Great Lakes region. Nevertheless, the Abenaki resisted the pressure to join the French when they went to war against the Iroquois. Early on, they recognized the dangers of dependence on any single European power, preferring to play one off against the other up to the time of the American Revolution. The Abenaki way of life – one that involved family bands seasonally dispersing out over a wide from Odanak and other centers, such as Missisquoi, to hunt, fish and trap - worked well as a subsistence pattern for countless generations, serving also as a strategy for keeping their casualties low during the colonial wars with the English. Both France and Britain placed the The Abenakis and their allies under great pressure during the decades leading up to the French and Indian War (The Seven Years War, 1754 - 1763). In 1749 the French reoccupied the upper St.
