KHAN Academy- American Goverment

Today we watched a video on american government. In the video it had information on the coming to Plymouth rock to the French and Indian war that lasted 7 years. After the war they made the treaty of Paris which leaded to the stamp act. After the stamp act came the Boston tea party. Around 1776 america rote the Declaration of Independence, which then lead to the Revolutionary War. About 78 years later the civil war began, then in 1865 the south surrendered to the north and slavery became illegal. 18% of white men on the south side died and 6% of the Norths white men died. It was know as the bloodiest War.
