2 Review Ch.5.1: Territorial Expansion Wilderness Road –Daniel Boone in 1775, began widening the Warriors path from the Cumberland Gap to Kentucky. Renamed as the Wilderness Road. More than 100,000 people traveled it between 1775 and 1790.

3 Louisiana Purchase Spain had been controlling the Louisiana area after the French lost to the British in the Seven Years War. 1800, Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte forced Spain to return ownership. 1803, President Jefferson sent James Monroe to Paris to buy New Orleans; Congress voted to spend $2 million. –Privately, Jefferson told Monroe to spend up to $10 mil. –Napoleon needed money and agreed to sell all of the Louisiana territory to for $15 mil. Some people were not happy because he had not been authorized by Congress to spend that much. Congress quickly approved and doubled the size of the US

4 Westward Migration After Lewis and Clark explored the new territory, many new settlers were eager to expand westward. Northwest Ordinance of 1787: –Each western territory could become a state when its population reached 60,000, wrote a constitution, and the constitution was approved by congress.

5 Settling the West People who made the move west were farmers, hunters, European immigrants, army veterans, artisans –mix of poor and middle class. Conestogas-20 ft. long and 4ft. Deep. –From NY 500 wagons a day were heading west in 1797. Flatboats on rivers also took people westward.

6 Farms in the West Farms generally resembled farms in the East. Early on, the Southern farms in the west did not have slaves, but were eager to acquire. Community activities kept people in touch, but many people were isolated from other people. Conflicts in the lawless west were usually settled with fists and guns. –Most feared an attack by natives.

7 Native American and Settlers Greatest threat to natives was settlers. Northwest Ordinance of 1787: –“The utmost good faith shall always be observed towards the Indians; their land and property shall never be taken from them without their consent; and, in their property, rights, and liberty, they shall never be invaded or disturbed. --The Northwest Ordinance, 1787

8 Trouble in Ohio White settlers moved in and pushed natives out The government did nothing to stop it. Native Americans in Ohio formed a confederation to halt white settlement. 1790 and 1791 warriors repeatedly attacked settlers, killing more than 800 soldiers and defeating the military many times. 1792, Washington allowed an army to be trained and in 1794, 3000 soldiers went up against 2,000 warriors in the Battle of Fallen Timbers near Lake Erie. –The natives were defeated. –The treaty of Greenville, ending that war, meant the natives were to give up much of their land.

9 Shawnee Solution Many natives in the Ohio valley left, heading west across the Mississippi river. Two Shawnee brothers, Tenskwatawa and Tecumseh, stayed and encouraged others to give up the white man's ways of drinking, eating the foods, and using the weapons. In 1808 the two established a community called Prophet’s Town along Indiana’s Tippecanoe River. –William Henry Harrison, governor of the Indiana Territory, grew alarmed and by 1811, had a force of 1,000 soldiers attack and destroy Prophet’s Town. –Tecumseh was later killed fighting for the British in the War of 1812.
