-Why was the Missouri Compromise of 1820-1821 necessary? What did the Missouri Compromise accomplish?
-Andrew Jackson defended the Indian Removal Act, arguing that Native Americans could not be assimilated, that their lands could not be protected from white settlers, and that moving Native Americans to the West would allow them to maintain their way of life. Do you agree with these points?

Answer 1

This is a lot for ten points. Try not to ask for everything in one question.
The Articles of Confederation were only a temporary solution without much thought beyond separation from Britain.
Much of the debates between Hamilton and Jefferson were about commerce. Hamilton believed organization and regulation were needed. Jefferson did not.
The War of 1812 accomplished very little. Britain was bullying the U.S. and there was no other means of conflict resolution than war. Diplomacy without military force was not influencing anyone. Attacking Canada was not a great strategy since they were mostly happy being Canadians.
The Missouri Compromise delayed the Civil War for a generation. Unfortunately, the root causes of conflict were not resolved without terrible bloodshed.
Andrew Jackson understood Native American tradition and culture better than most modern historians but political correctness of our era would label him a chauvinistic pig.

Answer 2

Ok here we go
---The articles of confederation provided too much power to the states and enough to the central government. In this system, any state could choose not to follow or enforce any federal law it wanted.( or didn't want)
---Their conflict absolutely helped. Remember, in the begining we weren't a democracy, we were ruled by a bunch of smart guys who wanted to organize government. Conflict among the masses causes violence and marginalization. But conflict among intellectuals, conflict equals compromise and results.
---This is straight from your study guide and too big, it should be posted seperately.
---Their is obviously the classic conflict between representation in the congress by population or by state. This was the virginia plan which had a house with reps from each state according to population. The new jersey plan suggested that in this new country that the majority would oppress the minority, therefore all states should get one vote regardless of population. The great compromise is what followed which allowed for two seperate houses that practically enacted both plans.
---We traded with both france and England. Both told us to stop tradeing with the other. So we kept trading with both. Both sides hired american pirates to harrass the other side and disrupt trade. The Brits then took U.S. pirates captive. We told them to release our citizens, they said no because they were pirates. And war ensued. This was foolhardy for the young indebted, undeveloped U.S. to persue.
---At the time, there remained a fine balance between slave hlding states and free states. This balance kept either side from oppressing the other with taxing laws in congress. The missouri Compromise was an effort to maintain this balance rather than really solve any problem. This disregard for a real problem ultimately lead to cesession and war.
---The first two are true. But the cherokee and eastern tribes could not keep the same lifestyles in the vastly different climate. However, moving the Indians because THEY wouldn't assimilate, and WE couldn't keep from attacking them doesn't seem very fair.
