This a five paragraph essay question. Please make 5 paragraph for each question.

You will need to provide 6 specific pieces of evidence in your essay. PLEASE UNDERLINE YOUR THESIS! 

 

1.How did America’s expanding interests in the Western Hemi sphere affect its foreign policy in the region and its relationships with migrant peoples around the world?

2.   What factors helped to bring on the American Civil War?




3.   In what ways did the Civil War answer some problems even as it created new, unresolved issues for the future?

4.   Lincoln  observed  in  1864  that  “we  all  declare  for  liberty but in using the same  word  we do not all mean the  same  thing .”  He  continued  to  explain  what  the  North   meant  and  what  the  South  meant,  and  how  victory   meant  a  national  norm  as  defined  by  the  North.  Illustrate how liberty would come to be understood for the  nation  after  the  Civil  War  and  analyze  whether  the   abolishment of slavery was enough to propel the United  States  to  finally  exist  as  its  founding  documents  suggested it should.
