WESTERNERS WERE DIFFERENT In the west there was a huge difference
in people In the west people were equal, they
helped and protected each other It was difficult, lonely, dangerous, and
required a lot of work to live in the west This spirit that spawned from the west
became known as “nationalism” Henry Clay brought it to congress
![Page 5: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
FRONTIER STATES HAD PROBLEMS Four big problems in the west:
1. Needed roads for transportation2. Land prices needed to be inexpensive and
regulated by government3. People needed loans from banks4. Markets for farm goods needed protection
from the government

Part 2: The South
![Page 7: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
FARMING IN THE SOUTH Southern conditions were great for
farming with long growing seasons, abundant rainfall, and broad, fertile lowlands
Grew lots of cash crops such as: cotton, rice, sugar, tobacco, indigo, and hemp
The south had to buy most of their manufactured goods from Europe, and with tariffs added to these good it made for high prices
![Page 8: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
KING COTTON IN THE SOUTH Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in
1793 The gin separated the cotton from the
seeds Before the gin cotton was not very
profitable, it took lots of slave labor to separate
After the gin it became very profitable and cotton became know as either “King Cotton” or “White Gold”
Cotton was the king of the south and lots of slaves were needed to work it

THE ERA OF GOOD FEELINGS Two terms of Monroe were called “the
era of good feelings” Monroe was elected to a second term
with all the electoral votes except 1 One vote was given to the other
candidate just to keep George Washington as the only president ever elected unanimously
![Page 13: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

CHAPTER 9
Part 4: Slavery
![Page 16: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
SLAVERY BECOMES AN ISSUE
By 1819 western settlers had added 4 states:1. Indiana2. Mississippi3. Illinois4. Alabama
Next Missouri asked to be added as the 12th slave state due to its slave count
There were 11 slave states and 11 free states, power in the senate was balanced between the North and South until Missouri wanted to join
This created problems with the North and debate was heated
![Page 17: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THE DEBATE CONTINUES Missouri would be the first slave state
west of the Mississippi River North afraid that slavery would spread
through the whole Louisiana region South afraid that if it was admitted as a
free state then it would destroy the slavery system currently used
Debate became very heated, because which every side Missouri joined would determine who had power in the government
![Page 18: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
MAINE SEEKS STATEHOOD Debate continued for several months Maine asked to join as a state during
this time; a free state This could solve the problems Henry Clay, who became known as “The
Great Compromiser” came up with a plan to satisfy both sides
![Page 19: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
THE MISSOURI COMPROMISE Statehood for Missouri and Maine
combined Missouri would be allowed as a slave
state Maine would join as a free state This would provide 12 free states and 12
slave states Also no slavery would be allowed north
of the 36° 30’ of the Louisiana Territory; except Missouri
This resolved this issue temporarily
![Page 20: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

![Page 22: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
EUROPEAN PROBLEMS European colonies
wanted to revolt against their mother countries and become free as America
American continent began to rebel against their governments
![Page 23: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
AMERICANS BECOME ALARMED Many of the European countries agreed
to send powerful armies and fleets to regain control of their colonies in North and South America
British didn’t take part in the agreement, because trade was very profitable for them and if they joined that would come to an end
![Page 24: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
THE BRITISH MAKE A PROPOSAL George Canning, British foreign
secretary, suggested England and American join together and form a warning to all European countries to stay out of Latin America
Most agreed, however the president was talked out of it and into creating our own warning called the “Monroe Doctrine”
![Page 25: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
THE MONROE DOCTRINE Announced his doctrine during annual
message to congress It stated that any European country that
tried to extend its influence in the western hemisphere would be taken as a threat to the safety of the U.S.
British not happy about the Americans doing this on their own
Europe didn’t take seriously, however didn’t act until years later
![Page 26: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
CHAPTER 9
Part 6: Election Time
![Page 27: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
THE ELECTION OF 1824 Due to the sectionalism occurring in the
America at this time; the West, North, and South all wanted different leadership of the country
This created 5 candidates that would run for presidency in this election
Virginia Dynasty was about to end as well as the Southern Influence
![Page 28: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES
Nominations:New England – John Quincy Adams
(Massachusetts)Henry ClaySouth had two candidates – William Crawford
(Georgia) - John C. Calhoun (South Carolina)
However, Calhoun decided to withdraw from the running and support the very popular Andrew Jackson
![Page 29: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
DO YOU RECOGNIZE THIS MAN?
This man is on a well known American item, what is it? It is used frequently in many places you may go.He of course was one of our presidents and a
very famous general.
![Page 30: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
MAJORITY AND PLURALITY We need to understand these two terms to
understand the election results Majority is when somebody gets over 50% of the
votes in an election Plurality is when somebody gets the most votes
however it is not more than 50% Of the 261 electoral votes:
Jackson = 99 Adams = 84 Crawford = 40 Clay = 37
Jackson had plurality however not majority Due to this the House of Representatives would
vote on the top three candidates and choose the winner
![Page 31: Part 1: A New Spirit: Expansion. James Monroe was elected president, Democrat-Republican Federalists finished as a political party Presidents Washington,](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649d1a5503460f949ef61b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES MUST DECIDE
Henry Clay was eliminated because he had the least votes
Because Crawford only had 40 votes he was also not a popular candidate
Henry Clay didn’t want Jackson to be president so he worked hard to persuade others that he should not be president
It worked, John Q. Adams was chosen as president
Jackson was angry and felt that Adams and Clay worked against him; he vowed to win the next election
