Treaty of Versailles DBQ While Woodrow “Woody” Wilson was president of the United States‚ he managed to accomplish some unthinkable feats‚ such as fighting for the passage of the 19th Amendment (chartering women’s suffrage) and establishing order in the entropic territories such as Haiti and the Dominican Republic by dispatching US Marines in these places. However‚ due to weak judgement and intuition‚ as well as inexperience‚ “Woody‚” made a feeble‚ manipulatable diplomat. During the Paris Peace

DBQ John Brown is the man who stirred up America for standing up for the most controversial flaw of American history: slavery. The opinions of the North and South regarding John Brown and his intense actions tremendously changed after 1859. Prior to the invasion of the federal armory at the Harper’s Ferry in Virginia‚ Brown had little reputation among the North and the South. John Brown’s actions were regarded as extreme in the years before the American Civil War and they served as a reflection

DBQ: Causes of World War I At the turn of the twentieth century‚ Europe seemed to enjoy a period of peace and progress. Yet below the surface‚ several forces were at work that would lead Europe into the “Great War.” On of these forces was nationalism‚ and it had an explosive effect in the Balkans. But‚ nationalism was only one of the many causes of WWI. Historians and eye witnesses have described the causes of WWI and have tried to assess the responsibility for it.

For good and for bad‚ Musa intended to make the pilgrimage for him. Even though Mansa Musa thought he was making the journey for himself and his religion‚ it was more widely viewed as a celebration and praise for him and his kingdom through his generosity.

During the early 1800s‚ two parties were developed having different perspectives on government and the Constitution. The Democratic Republicans‚ led by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison‚ were always characterized by following the strict construction of the constitution. The Federalists‚ led by Alexander Hamilton‚ were characterized by following the broad construction of the constitution.

The United States entered WWI late causing it to not be as heavily effected by casualties as other countries but there were many other effects of the war. I would like to highlight three effects of the war which are soldiers going through shell shock‚ change in racial distribution‚ and women gaining rights.
