How Did Louis And Whiskey Rebellion Influence George Washington's Domestic Policy

President George Washington set the foundation for the United States of America with the careful judgement towards a Proclamation of Neutrality as an act of foreign policy while a more controversial Whiskey Rebellion served as an act of domestic policy during the late 18th century. The presidency further developed from John Adams and extended down the early 19th century with Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and James Monroe. The early presidents all faced different foreign and domestic challenges which either met up with the views of Washington or were changed from his ideas into the current presidents own following towards a successful United States. George Washington developed a major responsibility with his position as the first leader

The Lewis and Clark expedition marked the first American expedition to cross what is now the western portion of the United States. The expedition occurred from the Louisiana Purchase which allowed Jefferson to turn away from his strict ideals of the Constitution to pull through with this purchase for the country's good. The Louisiana Purchase managed strong support by many Americans which lead to the Lewis and Clark expedition. The expeditions leaders were Captain Meriwether Lewis and Lieutenant William Clark who set out from St. Louis in 1804 and reached the Oregon coast on the Pacific Ocean.

Politicians in Congress had attempted to preserve a sectional balance between the North and the South. There had been a balance of 11 slave and 11 free states but once Missouri bided for statehood the North raised alarm because slavery was well established there. The issue here was that if Missouri came in as a slave state, it would tip the political balance in the South’s favor. Henry Clay represented a compromise where Missouri was to be admitted as a slaveholding state and Maine was to be admitted as a free state to maintain sectional balance.In the rest of the Louisiana Territory 36° 30 line allowed all states north of the line to not have slavery while the west. President Monroe added his signature in March 1820 and saw that the Missouri Compromise preserved sectional balance for over 30 years and provided time for the nation to mature. The Monroe Doctrine became a policy based on the United States not being able to ignore the ambitions of Europe because they affected the future of the Western Hemisphere. On December 2, 1823, President Monroe inserted into his
