What is on the quiz (Actually the info is in chapter 7)
Articles of confederation
These were documents that basically made the 13 colonies separated from GB and established the US as a confederation
Northwest ordinances
This was an act of the confederation of the US that stated that the US would continue expansion towards the west
Nationalist
They preferred strong central government
Goals of nationalists:
To have their country united under THEIR nation's rule - not to be ruled by some foreign king, like in many cases. To be able to maintain their own culture, with their own unique national values and customs and not have other cultures forced upon them. To speak their national language. To celebrate and honor their national artists and heroes, their special traditions and holidays, to show the pride of being (whatever nation they are). Instead of saying, "oh, I'm from this and that kingdom of this and that king" people would say "I am French/Hungarian/Italian/whatever", and be proud of who they are and identify with their nationality, not allowing other nations to press on them and control them -- at least not without a fight and an attempt of resistance.
