Slavery and the Admission of California into the Union By virtue of the abolition of slavery throughout the republic of Mexico in 1829 the province of California fell into the possession of the United States with no taint of that institution, and the express prohibitive law was an inherent obstacle at the very threshold of the desire of the South. New states are regularly formed by enabling acts of Congress out of territories of the United States, organized under its authority or acquired in an organized condition from foreign states. The question of slavery extension made California an integral part of the territory of the United States; the birth, a half-century ago, of the free State of California, inflicted a mortal wound upon the enemy of human freedom. www.sfmuseum.org /hist5/caladmit.html   (2554 words)

Oklahoma State History and Information Beginning in the 1820s, the Five Civilized Tribes from the southeastern United States were relocated to Indian Territory over numerous routes, the most famous being the Cherokee "Trail of Tears." Forced off their ancestral lands by state and federal governments, the tribes suffered great hardships during the rigorous trips west. The lands which the Osage and Quapaw had ceded to the United States government were turned over to the Indians of the old Southeast, who were being relocated from their tribal homes.

Chieftains of Mexican Independence He called the houses together on August 4, 1829, but the national emergency resulting from the Spanish invasion precluded any opportunity to consider the approval of the treaties with the United States. Nevertheless, if the legation of the United States in Mexico City knew of Jackson's overture prior to the collapse of the Guerrero administration on December 23, 1829, it refrained from presenting it. But the most important reason why the people of Texas objected to Guerrero's possession of war powers was that one of his decrees in exercise of this facility threatened them for a time with economic ruin by depriving the planters of their slave labor. www.tamu.edu /ccbn/dewitt/chieftains.htm   (6178 words)

El Salvador - EL SALVADOR AND THE UNITED PROVINCES OF CENTRAL AMERICA The United Provinces, unworkable though they proved to be, constituted the only successful political union of the Central American states in the postcolonial era. Generally speaking, the liberals were more open to foreign ideas (particularly from the United States, France, and Britain); they welcomed foreign investment and participation in a laissez-faire process of economic development; and they sought to limit the influence of the Roman Catholic Church over the lives of the people. The period of the United Provinces was thus one of Central American polarization impelled by deep divisions among the populace, not the unification originally anticipated by idealists. www.country-data.com /cgi-bin/query/r-4206.html   (11 words)

DEMOCRATIC PARTY - LoveToKnow Article on DEMOCRATIC PARTY Favorable treatises are R. Gillet, Democracy in the United States (New York, 1868); and George Fitch, Political Facts: an Historical Text-Book of the Democratic and Other Parties (Baltimore, 1884). The evils of lax government, both central and state, under the Confederation caused, however, a marked anti-democratic reaction, and this united with the temperamental conservatism of the framers of the constitution of 1787 in the shaping of that conservative instrument. It should be borne in mind, however, that the Dernocratrc party of Jackson was not,strictly identical with the Democratic-Republican party of Jefferson,and some writers date back the origin of the present Democratic party only to 1828-1829. www.1911encyclopedia.org /D/DE/DEMOCRATIC_PARTY.htm   (6558 words)

Scientific Experiments Europe continued to play a major role, as it had for several centuries, but scientific communities were developing in the United States and Russia. The science of the 17th century also introduced the formation of scientific societies and journals in which scientists presented their ideas and results to be critiqued by their peers. Although, described from the perspective of 19th century science and culture, some of these creations were so revolutionary that their potential influence on science and society were not completely recognized during the time frame of the 19th century. www.wordtrade.com /science/experiments.htm   (6302 words)

Democratic Party (United States) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Democrat James Buchanan was elected in 1856, but his Kansas policies so angered Douglas that the party divided bitterly in the late 1850s into three major factions, the pro-slavery Southern Democrats, the pro-Southern northern Democrats led by Buchanan, and the anti-slavery northern Democrats led by Douglas. Currently, the Democratic Party is the minority party in the United States Senate and the House of Representatives. Civil libertarians also often support the Democratic Party because its positions on such issues as civil rights and separation of church and state are more closely aligned to their own than the positions of the Republican Party, and because the Democrats' economic agenda may be more appealing to them than that of the Libertarian Party. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/United_States_Democratic_Party   (8842 words)
