RevolutionRevolution
an overthrow or repudiation and the thorough replacement of an established government or political system by the people governed
a sudden, complete or marked change in something
The The Industrial Industrial RevolutionRevolution
What was it?What was it? the change from an agricultural society to industrial because new factories in the
northeast states
When did it happen?When did it happen?
the Industrial Revolution began in the United States around 1800 in the New England states
Why did it begin the Northeast?Why did it begin the Northeast? New England had poor soil for
farming Northeast has many rivers =
waterpower for factories NE had port cities for shipping to
other states and across the Atlantic Subsistence farmers were willing
to move to the cities
The Industrial Revolution occurred because of…
FREE ENTERPRISE – people are free to buy, sell, own, and produce products as well as work wherever they choose
Which founding father supported an economy based on free enterprise?
The government had few regulations to control the economy
The Industrial Revolution required the invention of new machines and technology – which is scientific discoveries that simplify work.
Congress created patents to protect inventors’ new inventions from being copied.
Ultimately, the Industrial Revolution Ultimately, the Industrial Revolution occurred as a combination of the occurred as a combination of the following events:following events:
Rise of the factory system
Use of steam power
Mass production of goods
IndustrialRevolution
The Cotton Gin
Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin, which was a simple machine that quickly and efficiently removed seeds from cotton. Farm production increased dramatically.
Eli Whitney’s Cotton Gin, 1791
Cotton became more profitable = an increase in the need for slave labor
Removed seeds from cotton
Factories Factory System –
a system bringing manufacturing steps together under one roof or in one place. Most employees were women and children working LONG hours.
Francis Lowell- opened the Lowell factory in Massachusetts. Employed mostly young girls to work in difficult conditions for long hours and low wages.
These conditions had an impact on the child labor laws theU.S. has today.

New Development – Interchangeable Parts
Interchangeable parts – identical machine parts that could be quickly put together to make a complete product
Importance of Interchangeable parts
Allowed for mass production of a variety of goods
so…prices were reduced

The Cotton Gin’s Impact on Slavery
The demand for southern cotton grew dramatically because of the cotton gin and the increased number of textile mills in the north that needed cotton
more northern textile mills =
more southern slaves!
Brief Summary of the Plantation System
Large plantations were comprised of several thousand acres. Plantation owners had slaves to do all the work. Some worked in the house, some were trained as blacksmiths, carpenters, shoe makers, or weavers, and others worked with animals in pastures. However, most worked long hours in the fields.
The Cotton Gin Continued…
The cotton gin made it possible to clean cotton faster and less expensively than by hand. This encouraged the planters to raise larger cotton crops which required more slaves.
Therefore. . .

Regional Specialization
North – industrialization
South – agriculture (cotton and slavery)
Farming During the Industrial Revolution
New England farms were small, usually subsistence farms
Western farmers raised pork and cash crops such as corn and wheat.
Southern farmers planted cash crops such as cotton, rice, and tobacco
Urbanization Prompted by Industrial Revolution
Growth of factories and trade caused the growth of towns and cities
Locations of factories depended on the geography of the area
Urban = Cities Rural = Country
Five Common Problems of Early Cities
1.Streets and sidewalks unpaved & animals roaming freely
2.Pollution fromfactories
3. No sewers
4. Diseases easily spread due to poor sanitation
5. Fires spread easily due to close quarters and few fire companies
The Census and Population Census – officially counts the
population of the U.S. every 10 years
The first census occurred in 1790 and the population of the United States was nearly 4 million
The 1790 Census
First Census
Most of the population lived east of the Appalachian Mountains and within a few hundred miles of the Atlantic coast
By 1820, the population reached 10 million with 2 million living west of the Appalachian Mountains

Transportation
Because the nation needed good inland roads for travel and for the shipment of goods, private companies built turnpikes or toll roads
Fees paid to use these roads were used for construction and upkeep of the roads
“Pay to use the road!”
The National Road was approved by Congress in 1806 that connected the east with the west. The first section opened in 1818, connecting Maryland to western Virginia. Years later, it ended in Illinois. The National Road made the migration of people easier.

Pros & Cons to River Travel
More comfortable than horse & buggy
Get ALL goods on barges & float direction of current
Most rivers ran north & south BUT…most people traveling to the west!
Upstream against current slow
Clipper Ships
Moved quickly through waters – “clipped” time off the trip across the Atlantic
The Steamboat
Robert Fulton developed the first steamboat in 1807; named “Clermont”
Early steamboats easily blew up because there were no regulations on who could run steamboats and the boilers that created steam had no safety valve to stop overheating and slow pressure
Robert Fulton and the Steamboat
Steamboat Effects: improved transport
goods & people on inland rivers
economic productivity (ship goods – faster, easier, cheaper)
helped river cities grow – St. Louis
The Clermont – 1807
Canals Canal – an artificial (man-made) waterway The first canal was the 363 mile Erie Canal
connecting Albany, New York on the Hudson River to Buffalo, New York on Lake Erie. It was completed on October 26, 1825.
Erie Canal – 1825
Canals Continued…
Three results of the increase in canals in the U.S. between 1825 and 1850:
1. Canals lowered the cost of shipping goods
2. Brought prosperity (money) to towns along their routes
3. Helped unite the growing country

How much influence does the Supreme Court have on our nation’s laws?
Can Congress create a national bank and can the state tax the federal government?
Who controls business when two or more states are involved?

Judicial review
Yes, Congress can create a bank
No, the state cannot tax the federal govt
Congress controls “interstate commerce” (trade between two or more states)
Era of Good Feelings
Era of Good Feelings started with James Monroe’s presidency, after the War of 1812. Little to no political conflicts were taking place.
Nationalism is the allegiance or loyalty to your whole nation. This started during the Era of Good Feelings.
This Era did not last long, however!
Americans had strong allegiance to the region of the US they lived in – Westerners, Southerners, or Northerners
Leads to problems known asSectionalism
Sectionalism Disagreements Among North And South
1.Slavery2. Need for tariffs3. States’ rights4. Internal improvements
(paying for the improvements in U.S. transportation systems)
Southern SpokesmanJohn C. Calhoun – represented South Carolina
said NO to tariffs –it would raise prices of manufactured goods that South had to buy
Northern SpokesmanDaniel Webster – represented New Hampshire
said YES to tariffs – protect American industries from foreign competition because foreign goods would cost more $ (buy American!)
Western Spokesman
Henry Clay – represented Kentucky
Tried to compromise with both

Monroe Doctrine
While the U.S. would not interfere with any existing European colonies in the Americas, it would oppose any new ones. This set the U.S. up as the “protector of the Western Hemisphere.”
The Monroe Doctrine also enforces what Washington stated in his farewell address – that the U.S. will only be involved in European conflicts if the U.S.’s rights were disrupted.
