The alien and sedation acts was a series of acts in retaliation to the XYZ affair. The embargo act was a one of these acts. The embargo act prevented all trade with foreign countries. The idea of the embargo act was to hurt the economies of the other countries. This plan failed and completely backfired against the United States and harmed our economy. The Alien and Sedation acts were a failed series of acts meant to harm other economies but instead harmed our own.
The XYZ affair happened when France's Foreign Minister was demanded a bribe to speak to American delegates seeking a peace treaty. Instead the delegates were met with 3 agents known only as X Y and Z. These agents demanded more money along with the money the delegates brought. This enraged most of america even to the point of citizens shouting for war. President Adams though tried to avoid war by passing the Alien and Sedation acts. Hiya James here and now I am here with information on Lewis and Clark and their expedition through the Louisiana Purchase. Lewis and Clark on orders from Thomas Jefferson traveled through a water passageway to the Pacific Ocean. Thomas Jefferson had planned for them to learn about the land and what animals and crops are there. Lewis and Clark discovered plants and animals unknown to the United States. They met native american tribes and made peace with them along the journey. Soon after Lewis and Clark left the natives they were wiped out by an epidemic brought to them by Lewis and Clark.

These are the pros and cons to the Louisiana Purchase. If you have any comments please share them with me. The British taking American sailors, giving guns to the natives, and taking American ships. This can only mean one thing. We have to go back into war! The British provoked us back into a war with them and eventually lost. After the war we gained a larger sense of national pride and a boost in manufacturing Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton began our nations political parties due to their disagreements. For an example they had different views on human nature. Jefferson believed in the good in people but Hamilton believed people only want whats good for themselves. Hamilton believed only wealthy and educated people should be able to rule while Jefferson believed farmers should rule. Jefferson and Hamilton had the exact opposite view of the other on almost all things under the sun. Hamilton believed manufacturing was the only thing that mattered while Jefferson thought everything should be based off of agriculture. Hamilton wanted the national government to be greater than the states power while Jefferson believed the government should be small with limited power. Jefferson wanted a strict constitution while Hamilton wanted a loose interpretation of the constitution. The Whiskey Rebellion was exactly that a rebellion over whiskey. People in the south loved to have them some whiskey but when it got taxed they got angry with the idea of the tax being aimed at them. They had a huge rebellion threatening the United States Government. In the end The entire army led by George Washington himself entered the area. The Rebels fled until George Washington said he will pardon them for what they did. When George Washington was president he was faced with the following 3 challenges 1:Staying Neutral during the war between France and England 2:National debt 3:The Whiskey Rebellion If you have any comments please share them with me.
