34 POPULATION BOOM  1800-1825: Population Doubles. Why?  High birthrate  Immigrants from GB and Germany (1830s)  African American and Native American population growth  Rapid urban and western expansion

35 GROWTH OF INDUSTRY  Mechanical Inventions: patent laws provide incentives to created new machinery  Interchangeable parts; Whitley and Cotton Gin  Corporations raise $$$: businesses can now sell shares of stock  Factory System: stolen British factories + embargo + War of 1812 = growth of new factories  New England emerges as leading manufacturing center; Samuel Slater: textile factories  Labor and Unions  Lowell, MA: textile mills grow thanks to women and children working; then immigrants  Artisans can’t compete; argue to shorten working days to 10 hrs

37 TRANSPORTATION  Fill in your chart on Industry/Transportatio n using Chp 3 Sec. 1-2 in the ORANGE textbook

38 NATIONALISM TO SECTIONALISM Nationalism MATH PROBLEM: Growth of Cities Industrialization + Development of Capitalism INTERDEPENDENCE (farmers feed workers, workers provide goods) Sectional Problems? Regional differences: fast changing economy presents regional distinctions Women: getting jobs, but still legal and political restrictions Econ/Social Movement: gap between rich and poor growing Slavery: entrenched in the cotton industry

39 REASONS TO GO WEST? 1. New Land: provided after Native Americans were driven from lands 2. Economy: embargo and war in North East, new soil needed in South 3. Transportation: new roads to reach frontier 4. Immigrants: Europeans coming over; cheaper lands in the West FUTURE PROBLEMS?

40 NEW QUESTIONS/ISSUES  Focus on the West…  West=small populations  Western politicians: where do their loyalties lie?  Western States Support: 1. Easy Credit from state banks 2. Land made available at a low price 3. Improved transportation 4. WHAT ABOUT SLAVERY?

42 SECTIONALLISM  (n): restriction of interest to a narrow sphere; concern with local/regional interests or distinctions at the expense of general (national) well-being.  What are some causes of sectionalism in the U.S. at this time? Make a prediction:  Regional Disputes-land differences, slavery  Protective Tariff/Second Bank Disputes  Internal Improvements-roads, canals, etc

43 SECTIONALISM  As Americans start to expand, there is a fragile balance of power between slave states and free states.  When new states enter the union, we want to maintain the balance…  Missouri Compromise

44

45 MISSOURI COMPROMISE BREAK DOWN  Applied to enter the union as a SLAVE state  Pre-Missouri: Slave States=11, Free States=11  Addition of a Slave State would give South control of Senate (North already had the house because of population)  Slavery Issue: “like a firebell in the night”-TJ  As president…what do you do?

46 THE COMPROMISE  Henry Clay  Maine is separated from Mass. to become a Free State  Missouri enters as a Slave State  All territory NORTH of 36,30’ parallel is closed to slavery

47 LIKE A FIREBELL IN THE NIGHT  Passed in 1820  Prohibits slavery NORTH of the parallel 36,30’ north, except in the new state of Missouri  This will not be permanent, “just a band aid on a gunshot wound”
