Westward Expansion Roles

Tashena Rochester Americans move to settle in the West was purely motivated by the need for more money. The government once thought of the West as uncivilized and that humans should not live there.

The broken-windows theory was enforced before zero-tolerance policy and the Mayor transitioned into a more strict policy for reducing crime. Broken windows policing was effective in reducing crime rates within the United States. The transition into zero-tolerance policy made the police look at small offenses more seriously because these small offenses and low-level crimes could lead to higher offenses. Zero-tolerance was implemented because the Mayor realized all criminal offenses needed to be taken

The drastic differences between the two groups eventually transformed America into a divided nation of sectionalism economically, politically, and socially. Westward expansion had an economical impact on the North and South’s separation in many ways. For every set of land gained, one would be a free state and the other a slave state. The South used its gained land for agricultural improvement, while the North constructed factories and manufacturing buildings to strengthen its industrial economy. Although expansion gave America more opportunities and potential economic growth, expansion also affected the relationship between the North and the South: both groups disputed over several U.S.

In the time before the Civil War, slavery prevented economic development from happening in the West. However, when the southern states seceded, this gave the Republicans (who were in charge of the federal government) the opportunity to open the west to economic development (Berkin, et. al., 436). The Pacific Railway Act of 1862 and the Home Stead Act of 1862 were put in place by the Republicans to encourage the expansion of the western frontier. The Pacific Railway Act provided the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific companies with sizeable loans, and 10 square miles

(Evidence I) This was bad for the city of Timbuktu because it excluded them from being discovered by Northern European countries.

Also these explorations hurt Timbuktu because these European countries found the “New World” which boasted a variety of unheard of goods. The impact of this was trade decreased in Timbuktu because of the new goods that were discovered in the New World.

Without the buffalo the indians would die. In the 1800’s , the Plains Indians moved westward to allow them to  make a better living and have a good life on the frontier because of the Homestead Act. The homestead Acts were several U.S. laws that gave the citizens ownership of land. It gave men and women 160 acres of land free of charge if you paid $10 to claim the land.

The cameras show what really happened at the scene. Police not wearing body cameras is a norm that should be changed. Police should wear body cameras while on the job. The cameras lowered the percentage of police who used lethal force when it was unnecessary, and the cameras keep policeman from being wrongly accused of using lethal force. Although it reveals private information, the information can help the police locate them, along with helping us get a image of what they look like.

The American government claims that they do not have enough money to support the ever increasing population of America, as well as immigrants and refugees, but that does not excuse sending innocent people back to war-torn countries in which they are persecuted, and-in extreme cases- even killed. Refugees travel to America out of a necessity, a desire to escape

The war finally ends in 1802 and France actually ends up losing at Saint-Domingue. Napoleon saw victory in months but he was wrong. The reason for France’s defeat was because Haiti used guerilla warfare, which was the first time for any country to use this type of attack in the history of modern warfare. Not only did France lose the war but they also lost liberty. Haiti was able to poison their food, their water, they would fight from trees, and they would run away and attack at night.
