June 2006 - US History

<p>It was spoils system</p>

<p>i skipped 3 of thoe you mentioned buffalo</p>

<p>Alger- self-made man
Manifest Destiny- southern slave owners (not 100% positive... but thought that southerners believed that moving west would create an unbalance of free/slave states)</p>

<p>Really emory1r I thought it was spoils for sure...there was something in the context of replacing the jobs...</p>

<p>And I still think its Korean War, not UN charter, because Russia wasnt even involved in the korean war and the UN character basically did to curb the powers of all nations by saying that a coalition of countries would set sanctions/invade if you did anything "bad"</p>

<p>I mean yes Korean was involved with communism, but if the north won I would think that the chinese and not russians would have gained power.</p>

<p>Horatio Alger - self made individual
Manifest destiny - northern abolitionists?? not sure
land plots - towns
japanese invasion of manchuria</p>

<p>Manifest Destiny - I put NE abolitionist for the same reason, though. I was thinking of the Mexican War. Southerners wanted it, and NE abolitionists opposed it because they thought it was a plot to extend slavery.</p>

<p>Yeah it was definitley spoils system, pretty sure it's UN charter.</p>

<p>agree with demeter.</p>

<p>I was under the impression that North Korea was under the influence of the Soviet. Actually, I remember reading that in my book. At first, when Korea was divided along the 38th parallel, the Soviet thought it was permanent and refused UN talks of establishing a united government.</p>

<p>~ Horatio Alger question? Self made man
~ Who would be least likely to support Manifest destiny? NE Abolinist
~ 1932 Non-recognition thing? What event sparked it? I put about some kind of breaking comittmnet but im not sure</p>

<p>It was the Stimson Act and it involved the Japanese invasion of Manchuria in 1932. I have no idea why I knew that so well when it came up on the test.</p>

<p>I agree, char, - factory system. =)</p>

<p>changed by answer from gender equality at the last second ... phew!!!</p>

<p>I didn't study for this test AT ALL. I decided to take it 5 mins before the test started instead of Lit and I think I did okay minus leaving like 10 blank and getting like 5 wrong so far.</p>

<p>How many can you leave blank/get wrong and still get a good score?</p>

<p>What was the one with the photo of the family - increase in family size?</p>

<p>Its was all about containment, the Soviets wanted to spread communism to as many countries as possible. It would have been to their advantage is South Korea had fallen.</p>

<p>For tammany hall i put municipal reforms - right?</p>

<p>and how did america get phillipenes and pr? not by purchase right?</p>

<p>errr! i didn't put spoils system. i put the thing about merit something. damnit.</p>

<p>and for the manifest one, i was stuck because i figured both ne ab's. and slave owners woud worry about the free/slave balance!</p>

<p>i put spoils system</p>

<p>Spoils system, and the Philippines and Puerto Rico were won from Spain in the Spanish-American War.</p>

<p>ok got the stimson act wrong :-( 4 blank, 5 wrong so far.</p>

<p>~ Who would be least likely to support Manifest destiny?
