    Nineteen Propositions

    King Charles On January 4 1642 arrested five members of the commons John Pym, John Hampden, Denzil Holles, William Strode, Sir Arthur Hesilrige, and one Lord named Mandeville. So in March Parliament passed the Militia Ordinance which you did not have to get say from the King so Parliament could select whoever they wanted to be Lord and deputy. The King power started to become limited. Parliament sent out a letter called Nineteen Propositions to the king which was a list of things that Parliament wanted to have control fully or as equally as the king and King Charles denied it. So both the Parliament and King got ready for war. Around the middle of 1642 people started flocking towards the king some of the people who opposed him started to join…

    Civil War in the West

    Battles and conflicts on waterways in the trans-Mississippian Theatre led to the Union control of the Arkansas and White Rivers and in the long run the control of the Mississippi River by the Union. Naval battles in the trans-Mississippian theatre during the Civil War achieved victory in the West for the Union. Control of the Mississippi River stood crucial for both sides as it was the lifeline for materials and reinforcements for both the Confederate and Union armies. These confrontations, on and around trans-Mississippian waterways, by large forces and small guerrilla forces led to ships being ambushed and supply lines being cut. Steamers harassed along the Arkansas shores of the Mississippi River made it difficult to transport supplies south, and militia and guerrilla forces agitated ships on the Arkansas and White Rivers seizing cargo and supplies making it difficult to reach the Mississippi.…

    Republic Civil War

    By the time Gaius Marius became a consul in 107 B.C.E., opposition to reform was widespread within the Senate. Nevertheless, Marius reorganized the military by allowing landless citizens to join the army in return for land as a retirement pension. He then created a professional army with standardized training and equipment that was more effective for waging the growing number of extended military campaigns the Republic was involved in. Because their pensions were tied to the conquered territories, these professional soldier’s loyalties were joined to the generals under whom they served in order to receive those pensions. Thus Rome’s armies became more the property of her generals rather than…

    Why Did The Civil War Exist Essay

    The civil War and what led to it, has been a debatable subject since 1861. One of the main reasons that the war progressed is due to slavery and certain areas that was not yet to be called a state. Although, the civil War brought about a turning point for a lot of citizens, these issues still exist today, and it is not based on any particular people, but based on government boundaries, to still include racism, poverty, politics, and some forms of slavery.…

    Cause Of War: The Tensions Of The Civil War

    The Tensions behind the Civil War During 1783-1859, before the Civil War, the North and South were slowly drifting apart between their cultural, economic, political, and religious tensions which eventually lead to the American Civil War, but it was ultimately due to the single issue of slavery. Proof of these tensions can be found in many primary sources including: “Slavery a Positive Good” by John C. Calhoun, “The Church and Slavery” by Albert Barnes, “A Debate on Slavery” by Nathan Lewis Rice, “My Bondage and My Freedom” by Frederick Douglass, and “The Young Abolitionists; Or Conversations on Slavery” by J. Elizabeth Jones. In the end, all of these disagreements about the rights of states led to the Civil War. The main tension causing area…

    Civil War inevitable

    By the end of 1854 the two sections, the North (Union) and the South (Confederacy) had reached an impasse and that Civil War was inevitable sooner or later. The conflicts grew tension between the two, the manufacturing section of the North and the agricultural South, which led to Civil War. Between the North and the South there were economic, social and political differences. The North had a number of goals concerning slavery and the South. The North wanted to abolish slavery, stop the spread of slavery in the western territories, and the spreading of slavery in Kansas. And the immediate reason for the Civil War was to save the union. While the South wanted to continue slavery, spread slavery throughout the western territories, and ensure establishment in Kansas territory.…

    Irrepressibility Of The Civil War

    William H. Seward presented a speech to the public at Rochester, New York in 1858 labeling the current conflict of the time. Charles and Mary Beard, Allan Nevins, and Eric Foner support Seward’s views on the idea the American Civil War was an irrepressible conflict. Following Seward’s speech in 1858, dominate discussion points from 1861 to 1920 and so on include the discussion of impacting economic differences, whether the nation would be dominated by a system of free labor or slave labor. Furthermore, the fact that the war was inevitable due to the lack of willingness from the North and the South to create a compromise on the issue of slavery plays a lasting role. William Seward's firmly believed in the idea the American Civil War was irrepressible because “United States must and will, sooner or later, become either entirely a slaveholding…

    The Civil War

    Conflicts widened between the North and the South as two sides collided in every event before the Civil War. The North and the South were very different in many ways. They were known as two different countries because of their cultural and economic differences. The disagreements between the North and the South aggravated the separation that was soon to follow. When the North gained the control of the government, the South seceded.…

    American Civil War Research Paper

    The topic area that I am interested in researching is the American Civil War, as the period of time circling around this event in history has always been fascinating to me. I first became interested in the Civil War in my fifth grade history class, as all of the students went through an extensive unit regarding it. There, I learned a relatively large amount of information regarding it, discovering that it was a momentous clash between parties that shapes much of American history. I was introduced to many sources regarding the events of the American Civil War from historians’ interpretations as well as the accounts of those who participated or lived through it. The American Civil War helped define the nation and ultimately save the democratic form of government and the freedoms that people have today, also ending slavery and establishing new means of waging war on land and water.…

    The English Civil War: Causes

    One of the more political reasons for the English civil war was the individual reign of Charles I of England. In 1629, Charles copied his father. He refused to let Parliament meet. Members of Parliament arrived at Westminster to find that the doors had been locked with large chains and padlocks. They were locked out for eleven years - a period they called the Eleven Years Tyranny. This was the period of his…

    Charles's reign began with an unpopular friendship with George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham, who used his influence against the wishes of other nobility. Buckingham was assassinated in 1628. There was ongoing tension with parliament over money - made worse by the costs of war abroad. In addition, Charles favoured a High Anglican form of worship, and his wife was Catholic - both made many of his subjects suspicious, particularly the Puritans. Charles dissolved parliament three times between 1625 and 1629. In 1629, he dismissed parliament and resolved to rule alone. This forced him to raise revenue by non-parliamentary means which made him increasingly unpopular. At the same time, there was a crackdown on Puritans and Catholics and many emigrated to the American colonies.…

    The Restoration Of The English Monarchy

    In 1660, in what is known as the English Restoration, General George Monck met with Charles and arranged to restore him in exchange for a promise of amnesty and religious toleration for his former enemies. On May 25, 1660, Charles landed at Dover and four days later entered London in triumph. It was his 30th birthday, and London rejoiced at his arrival. In the first year of the Restoration, Oliver Cromwell was posthumously convicted of treason and his body disinterred from its tomb in Westminster Abbey and hanged from the gallows at Tyburn.…
