American History

I totally disagree with this statement because I consider the American pursuits at the time to be informed by their conscious protection of the integrity of their territorial boundary. Hence this paper is reinforces ideals of protecting the American territory through ratification of various treaties and Acts such as the Pinckneys Treaty, the Treaty of Greenville, the Land Ordinance Act, the Northwest Ordinance and the Proclamation Line of 1763. In addition I will highlight various wars which liberated America from the British Empire. Among the obstacles they faced was a strong force from the British Army and to counter it they pursued dialogues and formulation of policies to guide them through the adventure. Since the Britain had settled near major harbors in US from where they easily ventured into mainland American states, the US designed a plan to expunge them from dominating their harbors.

After the American Revolution the United States became a significant force in naval commerce. This precipitated the US to engage in conflict with England and other maritime nations which dominated the maritime trade. These misunderstandings culminated in the war of 1812 whereby America wanted to annex Canada. Alternatively, Britain attacked major US seaports. Despite the fact America lost major fights, it was able to defeat the British forces in New Orleans. Ostensibly, this war exposed major weaknesses in the American coastal defense. Consequently, after the war, America devised a plan that oversaw westward expansion through major American harbors.

When England increased taxes on British colonies, it precipitated the American Revolution consequently it resulted in the Shay Rebellion in Massachusetts.  The royal proclamation of 1763 was issued after Britain acquired the French territory in North America. In US, this proclamation instigated the American revolutionary war and later the Supreme Court ruled that only the US government was permitted to purchase land from Native Americans and not private individuals. Alternatively, the Land Ordinance Act of 1785 was intended to raise money through land sales in the extensively unmapped territories to the west left unsettled after the end of the Revolutionary War. The North West Ordinance established the model through which the US expanded westward across North America by the admission of newer states instead of expanding the existing states. The Treaty of Greenville ended the Northwest Indian War while Pinckneys treaty guaranteed the US with navigation rights in the Mississippi River. The treaty outlined the boundaries of the US with Spanish Colonies East of Florida and West Florida. West Florida was the region which experienced numerous sovereignty transformations during its history.  With the Louisiana Purchase, American westward expansion expanded into the Mississippi River.
