In this one hour read, go back to where it all began for this global superpower and discover the rich stories behind the nation's rise... Many people are familiar with the modern influence of American media and culture, but how did this nation develop into the powerhouse it is today? What events led to the rise of American individualism and its global reach? The complex history of America has always existed on two seemingly divisive ideologies of freedom and slavery - both enshrined in the Constitution that helped establish the nation. "We the People..." became the rallying cry of the country, while at the same time, millions of people were forced into an enduring legacy of slavery. While you might be familiar with some significant events in America's history, such as the Revolution against Great Britain, the Civil War, and the modern global presence, there's so much more to this country's legacy than meets the eye. Within these pages, you'll discover the personalities that defined America's distinct eras, from George Washington and Andrew Jackson to Joseph McCarthy and Ronald Reagan. Think you know all there is to know about this nation's history? Think again. Many of the most important decisions in the last few hundred years are woefully underrepresented in history classes - you'll be surprised at the richness of the stories that make up America's history. In this short book, here is just a fraction of what you will discover: An accessible and comprehensive introduction to America's compelling historical regime and modern presence How America ended up with a two-party system despite the ideological opposition of the Founding Fathers to this political division The stages of political development into the two-party system that we're familiar with today Key decisions made by powerful political players that influenced foreign policy, westward expansion, and global development The essential players in America's history who helped shape the direction of the nation's evolution Why Manifest Destiny was such a pivotal narrative in the American Dream and how its legacy continues to linger to this day America's distinct historical eras and how each one shaped the direction the nation was moving in And much more. While you might think you're familiar with the key historical eras and actions that defined and shaped American history, there's always more to learn. Your newfound knowledge will help you better understand the modern American nation and how it developed into the global superpower it is today.
