CHAPTER 7 Hammering Out a Federal Republic, 1787%u20131820 283SummaryIn this chapter, we traced four interrelated themes: public policy, westward expansion, party politics, and the persistence of Federalist values in the actions of the Marshall Court. We began by examining the contrasting public policies advocated by Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. A Federalist, Hamilton supported a strong national government and created a fiscal infrastructure (the national debt, tariffs, and a national bank) to spur trade and manufacturing. By contrast, Jefferson wanted to preserve the authority of state governments, and he envisioned an America enriched by farming rather than industry.Mapping the PastMAP 7.5 Defining the National Boundaries, 1800%u20131820After the War of 1812, American diplomats negotiated treaties with Great Britain and Spain that defined the boundaries of the Louisiana Purchase, with British Canada to the north and New Spain (which in 1821 became the independent nation of Mexico) to the south and west. These treaties eliminated the threat of border wars with neighboring states for a generation, giving the United States a much-needed period of peace and security. ANALYZING THE MAP: Look carefully at this map, which illustrates the territorial claims of the United States, Great Britain, and Spain in North America. How does this map illustrate efforts of the United States to claim territory throughout North America? How did U.S. expansion influence relations with Native American nations? MAKING CONNECTIONS: This map puts the diplomatic achievements of John Quincy Adams in clear perspective. How can the achievements of Adams%u2019s administration be related to diplomatic efforts of earlier American presidents?dpACAA182YADisputed territory, MaineJoint occupation, Oregon1818%u20131846U.S. and Britain, 1818Adams-On%u00eds Treaty, 1819181018131819Treaty LinesU.S. and British TerritoryLand in Florida,Occupied by U.S.Ceded by U.S.to Spain, 1818Ceded by Britainto U.S., 1819Cessions0 250 500 kilometers0 250 500 milesNSE WA T L ANTI CO CEANGulf of MexicoP ACIFI CO CEAN FLORIDA(Ceded to U.S. by Spain, 1819)N.MAINETEJAS UNITED STATES, 1783 LOUISIANA PURCHASE, 1803NUEVOMEXICOR U P E R T %u2019 S L ANDNUEVA VIZCAYA COAHUILASONORAYSINALOANUEVO SANTANDER NEW SPAIN(Mexico after 1821)OREGON COUNTRYALTACALIFORNIABAJACALIFORNIALOWER CANADAUPPERCANADAamerhistoryHS11e_07_m05Defining the National Boundaries43p3 x 25p3Third Proof02/26/24%u00a9 Bedford, Freeman & Worth Publishers.
