    Study Notes

    APUSH Unit 4 Review

    • Andrew Jackson: A populist figure, championed the common man, opposed the Bank of the US, and supported westward expansion, leading to the forced removal of Native Americans. His policies sparked political conflict and the rise of the Whig Party.
    • Federalists: Advocated for a strong central government, national bank, and loose interpretation of the Constitution. Their policies influenced early US financial and political systems. Often opposed by Democratic-Republicans.
    • Mexican-American War: A conflict over Texas annexation and border claims, resulting in the US gaining vast territories, including present-day California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico. The war intensified debates over slavery.
    • Slavery: A key issue in the South, based on economic reliance on agriculture, particularly cotton plantations. Legal and social systems supported slavery, contributing to economic prosperity but entrenched racial inequality.
    • Whigs: A political party formed in opposition to Andrew Jackson's policies, advocating for a strong federal government, internal improvements, and protective tariffs. They dissolved due to internal conflicts over slavery.
    • Economic Prosperity of the South: Based on the economic success of cotton plantations and reliance on slave labor.
    • Trail of Tears: Forced relocation of Native Americans west of the Mississippi River, resulting in significant loss of life and cultural disruption.
    • Spoils System: A political practice where Andrew Jackson rewarded supporters with government jobs, leading to concerns about corruption and efficiency.
    • Missouri Compromise: A temporary solution to the issue of balancing slave and free states in the newly acquired territories; it temporarily maintained the balance of power in the Senate.
    • Monroe Doctrine: A policy of opposing European colonialism in the Western Hemisphere, asserting US influence in the region.
    • Panic of 1819: A severe economic depression resulting from speculative lending practices and bank failures.
    • Second Bank of the US: A national financial institution intended to regulate currency and stability. Its creation and later veto by Andrew Jackson caused political strife.
    • Religious Revival (Second Great Awakening): A significant religious movement stressing personal salvation and emotional expressions, leading to increased religious diversity and social reforms, including abolitionism, temperance, and women's rights.
    • Indian Removal Act of 1830: Authorized the president to negotiate treaties with Native American tribes for their removal from their lands.
    • Growth of Denominations: Increased immigration and westward expansion led to increased religious diversification and church growth.
    • Increased Church Membership: The Second Great Awakening fostered a significant increase in church membership.
    • Textile Mills: The introduction of textile manufacturing techniques from Britain fueled industrial revolution in the US.
    • Louisiana Purchase: A significant land acquisition that nearly doubled the size of the US; this was a large expansion to the United States.
