what is up Wes like we are back again with unit 2 review for a push let's just get right into it it's seven pages long this is going to be really terrible and it's going to suck but before we get into all the sucky stuff I have three very exciting announ four very exciting announcements first yes I know what you're all thinking this is the Lego notredam D parice that I finished today super exciting number two perhaps the most exciting if you look in the description of this video there is a full hand crafted 28 question practice test that you can use it's all over unit 2 and because the test isn't like a vocabulary quiz right it's like this weird AP stuff where it's like because of this causes this this and if you're ever like I feel like I know the terms but I need practice on the questions just go in the description 28 questions it has a key at the bottom and hopefully that will be useful for you guys third announcement third announcement um another thing that's in the description is I recently started a history substack and I will I just like send out a newsletter once a week and if you want that it's also free it's also in the description and fourthly all of this stuff would not be possible without the help of my two friends Connor Kramer who helped me digest all of this stuff cuz there's like aund whatever terms on here and he helps look through the textbook and get a bunch of these definitions so I thank him a lot for that and Jake stretz who is editing this video because I cannot edit Jack d squat so thank you very much for their help and let's start with all of this trash all right let's do this chapter 2 starting with the r NOA Colony my aunt was born in Roka but you probably don't need to know that for the test what you do need to know was that the Roka colony was like the first permanent Colony uh in the Western Hemisphere from the English and everyone who lived there just randomly disa appeared um people think they want to go live with the natives but who really knows um next we have the defeat of the Spanish Armada the Spanish Armada was the strongest Navy up until 1588 when the British decisively defeated them um in battle and once they did that they were able to like secure their Naval route to the new world they didn't have to worry about Spanish Navy harassing them on their way over so that was huge because they were able to freely transport resources people Etc um and that kind of just made it a lot easier the uh the migration process um the enclosure movement and surplus population okay the enclosure movement is a little bit comp complicated but basically the king of England was like I'm going to make a tax on how much land you own because I'm broke and nobody really knew how much land they own so everyone was required to put up these fences and walls to like show how much land they own so that when the tax collectors came around they knew how much tax I was everybody out the issue was that a lot of like the Shepherds and other rural uh populace they like would Wander from territory to territory um especially for like the sheep and stuff to Bunch on the grass and they couldn't do that um once the enclosure movement started so they all moved to Big Urban cities and then uh everyone was poor there for the most part and there were so many people and was crowded and it was kind of sucky and a lot of the people were like I don't want to do this let's go to the new world and make a new life for myself um but there was also this other so a lot of the people who went to the new world were poor people uh normally turned out to be indentured servants who were trying to go make a new life for themselves the other group of people were the super wealthy um if you were like a second or third son you couldn't receive the inheritance so you see a lot of um offspring that aren't the first then um they will go to America with some money to make a life for themselves because they can't inherit what their dad has so that's pretty pretty cool uh so you have like this big class divide upper class lower class if there's indentured servitude on one more of these learning targets I'm going to punch something I we know what an indentured servant is I'm not I'm not going to explain it to you um goals of English settlers most of the English headers went there to as I said before create a new life for themselves others to make a lot of money um trying to go quick so this isn't a 90 hour video cultural changes okay talking about the ways the native culture changed with the introduction of the Europeans obviously the stuff from you don't want like the introduction of the horse LED them to be able to hunt bison but also the introduction of other things like alcohol and guns basically destroys native culture and it just kind of wipes it off the face of the Earth as these like Europe these like exotic European goods come in and basically transform the way natives live um and it kind of sadly destroys their culture for the most part demographic changes the English unlike the French who just sent a bunch of horny like single dudes and made a bunch of babies with natives the English did not do that they sent married couples or people who were going to marry other white English settlers and they didn't really intermingle with the native population the same way the French did or the Spanish and they didn't like have these like ethnically diverse Offspring they were just they they were white people and they were Natives and they traded and they didn't really do anything else other than that um economic changes uh the English would trade with the natives obviously they'd give them like whatever they could guns alcohol um blankets anything iron axes like they would they would trade with them and they would often seize their land after military conquest and whatnot so that was pretty cool um am I missing anything yeah so basically after the indentured servants finished their lotted time the English would just go take territory from natives to give it to the indentured servants um and sometimes they would give them like a token price like here's like some fish hooks for your land uh pretty famously I think they bought the island of New York for like $20 worth of pots and blankets some just something stupid like that um anyway Chesapeake Bay Loc okay so what you have to know is that it's the Divide between Virginia and Maryland and it's like this swampy marshy area where there's a bunch of disease and it's hard to grow crops and it kind of sucks but there's tobacco there so you can make a bunch of money doing that and Jamestown is the primary was the first settlement there on the Chesapeake Bay and jamestown's first leader was a guy named John Smith John Smith was like this militaristic leader he kind of turned James Town into a military boot camp like a for a militia um which kept them alive in this hostile land where they kind of had to fend for themselves against the natives but after this big uh gunpowder incident the British were like this guy doesn't know what he's doing so they brought him back to England I mean I he wasn't that bad but whatever anyway the Virginia Company of London these were the investors behind the settlement in Jamestown so they were funding it they were the ones who decided who was in charge they were the ones who decided what they were going to try to achieve there like um what the focus is uh so that was that joint stock companies this is another WAP term uh if you took that it's just a group of investors come together they share the risk they share the reward instead this kind of opens a new Lane for expeditions to different parts of the world because previously it was only big governments that would fund the Expedition and they would either take all the reward for themselves or take all the loss themselves but now you see this group of wealthy like this upper this group of upper class people coming together to like make these companies which is like the start of capitalism and blah blah blah blah blah not too important anyway the goals of Jamestown Colony they were originally there to find gold and then they got there and there was no gold and they're like oh man but then there was tobacco and then as the Virginia Company of London was like okay we're going to not search for gold anymore and we're just going to build a bunch of tobacco um but it turns out in order to grow tobacco you need people people to plant it and harvest it so they get the headright system and they say anyone who any colonist who pays for their Voyage to the Americas will give will give you 50 acres of land and you can Harvest Tobacco For Us blah blah blah blah blah um and this like drastically increased the number of colonists and uh yeah what happened head rde system gives you land increases Colonial colonization Virginia House of B burgus it was just the first like form of governance in the Americas it was like this colonial assembly and it was Democratic but the only people who could vote was this select group of uh landowning men so it was just like the first form of governance um oh there's also like a governor who could veto anything so I don't know pal hatson he was the chief neighboring the he was like the chief of the tribe that was next to Jamestown and he realized the advantage of trading with the settlers and they relied on for food so he was like wait I actually kind of like I'm the one who gives them their food so they rely on me and eventually he captured John Smith and threatened to kill him but his daughter saved us this is where the story of Pocahontas comes from if you were wondering and um after poton died his brother l a surprise attack and killed 300 colonists and everyone was like no um so yeah that was the thing goals of Maryland Colony okay so originally uh Maryland was created as a refugee for Catholics trying to flee from persecution and it was kind of set up in a feudalist manner similar to patr ship if you remember that from the last unit it was set up in a feudalist manner where like these manners would have essentially surf or slaves working for them and then they would give some of their money to the crown and that was that um it was yeah so it was just mainly a refuge where Catholics and some Puritans could find safety from the religious turmoil taking place in England all right puritanism scroll down here all right so the Puritans were like these Protestants who weren't really a part of the Protestant Reformation they didn't agree with the church of England or with the Catholics and they follow the ideas of this guy John Calvin who's if you're really into religion he's you might know him he's single election double election predestination some interesting stuff um they the Puritans were interested in creating this perfect city the city set up a hill uh they believ that you could gain or that you could not gain salvation but you could lose it biblical um but that was what they thought they were basically just like this Cult of Protestants who weren't necessarily Protestants anyway separatists they are people who align themselves with like smaller separate groups so for existence for example the pilgrims were separate from the Puritans but they could still kind of align themselves with them that's a stupid term you don't need to know it um except you might but probably not if they ask you about the separatist on the test just be like what the heck um but yeah they're like just like smaller groups of people uh John Winthrop he was the governor of Massachusetts and he was a puran that's about the only information that you need to know all right pilgrims okay so they were separatist the pilgrims were a separatist group of Puritans who fled from the Netherlands because they believed that Satan was affecting England people were weird back then and then they fled to the Americas on the Mayflower and they established like their little Colony at the side of Plymouth Plymouth you can still go and see the Plymouth Rock today if you want I hear it's very underwhelming but it's there and you can see it they were like trying to like make a base settlement where they could make profit and blah anyway Mayflower Compact this was a group this was a um this was like the first written frame of government it was a thing decided upon by all the different people on the Mayflower before they landed they agreed this is what we're going to do just and equal laws from representatives of their choosing so they kind of just set up their own little form of governance um the great Puritan migration okay so the Massachusetts Bay Company was founded to further the Puritan cause and make money by trading with Indians about 21,000 Puritans immigrated to Massachusetts uh and this like boosted the New England colonies population a lot um cuz this kind of even up the male to female ratio originally it was just a lot of males and then with the great Puritan migration a lot of females came so they were able to kind of replace their population uh the p in family structure uh they just believe that M held the authority within the household pretty basic stuff I severely severely limited women's rights in marriage um women were allowed to become full members of the church and divorce was legal but the males Authority in the house was absolute there was no questioning that outside of being able to go to church as a woman you can really do much oh and get a divorce but yeah that's about it okay franchise voting rights in Massachusetts Bay Colony okay provincial towns for governments so basically in Massachusetts Bay they were just self-governing towns with their own Congressional Church and they enacted a general court with delegates that were elected by these landowning church members a mean a while later company officials and elected deputies were separated into two legislative houses if there's a question about franchise voting rights in the Massachusetts Bay Colony on the test just guess it's don't worry about it um realistically this is just a stupid thing all right election of governor and assistance every local official delegate and general General Court every local official delegate of the general court and the colonial governor was elected by free men uh the governor was elected by the freemen of Massachusetts and was the top ruler of the colony it was just elected by people who could vote which was basically no one unless you own land and you were white and you were a man um the the freemen the freemen or visible Saints um what the Puritans called them were full members of the of the Puritan Church who demonstrated that they experienced divine grace and were the only citizens permitted to vote so if you weren't a visible Saint uh you can't vote so unless God like God's divine grace comes upon you and you experience it you can't vot um Roger Williams Rhode Island okay so Roger Williams was just this young guy who arrived in Massachusetts and argued that all law-abiding citizens should have the right to vote and the Puritans were like uh no only divinely touched people can vote and boss uh and he was like they're like get out of our city you're you're a weird our get out of our Colony you're a weirdo and so he went to Rhode Island and set up his own little gig and in Rhode Island anyone can practice any religion and so he kind of just like created a little safe haven for everyone so that's kind of cool next we have the establishment of the Baptist Church Roger Williams first established the Baptist Church in Rhode Island shortly after his banishment that happened pretty cool Reverend Thomas Hooker dude is from Connecticut um and he was a minister who had religious disputes with the colony of Massachusetts because the Puritans were difficult people and they formed a settlement in Hartford in 1636 all you need to know is he didn't agree with the period and he made his own colony Fundamental Orders of Connecticut system of government for Connecticut based off of Massachusetts kind of with an emphasis on the exception that men did not have to become members of the church to vote so as long as you were a white man who owned property you could vote you didn't have to be divinely inspired by God in order to vote you just had to own property and be white and a man so pretty lacked on the voting rules over there um next we have Fundamental Orders of Connecticut where are we okay it was just a system of government in Connecticut based off of massach oh wait did I say this yeah that was what I was saying okay Des centers okay the centers were this group of Protestants who belong to other denom denominations than the established church like Baptists or whatever like if you didn't align exactly with the Protestant movement then you were considered at the center uh Puritan treatment of Quakers so the Puritans persecuted the Quakers hardcore they were like you're like a heretic and they would sometimes like mutilate you and sometimes they would kill you and sometimes they would just fine you and sometimes they would throw you in prison they didn't like the Quakers an Hutchinson was a woman who traveled all over and led discussions where she insulted the Ministers of the pitan church and then she got banished uh cuz you can't do that and in 1637 she was put on trial for expressing opinions that were dangerous to the authorities she lost the trial and got banished and died a few years after so pretty cool uh not cool don't do that uh the P War where right the picot War uh was triggered by competition over the fur trade and expanding English settlements it was there was this big Mystic Massacre where Englishmen and narus I can't pronounce that and Native forces killed over 500 pekot in their fortified Village and then the war ended with the near extermination of the peot people so English fought natives English killed a lot of Natives and the Europeans expanded their territory once again rinse and repeat baby king Philips War oh my goodness it's another war against natives where they kick their butt and take their land and yeah that happened they were fighting over uh expanding their territory so they could give more land to indentured servants and other people and and um after they destroyed the uh what were they I don't know what the group of people were called but once they destroyed them they like completely annihilated them and all Native resistance in the area just broke so the English were just free to do whatever they wanted all right body of Liberties how much longer do we oh we're almost done okay body of Liberties are we're almost done with chapter 2 we're almost halfway done with the video or something like that this is going to be rough and I have a hunch that these learning targets are only going to get longer all right body of Liberties so they were just Puritans from East Anglia place in Britain uh they sought religious freedom and Economic Opportunity they focused on Family Farms that produced food small Surplus so like subsistence farming not trying to make these cash crops to sell for profit and they also did like fishing and Timber uh was their main export unlike the Chesapeake colonies up in New England they had few slaves because they didn't need these massive uh manual labor-based Plantation and agriculture uh they provided some rights and they were a little bit better than the South but it was the 17th century what can you expect um all right the halfway covenant okay body of Liberty is just right like it was more lack up there and you know they sold Timber um the halfway covenant okay so the New England Puritans introduced this thing called the halfway covenant in 1662 this allowed the baptism and like paral partial church membership of descendants of early settlers based on their ancestry rather than religious conversion so it was like if you were related to that guy you could join the church rather than if you actually converted to the religion um this compromise aim to like address the problem of like stagnating church membership people weren't really joining the church uh they were having a hard time finding members it didn't fully resolved the issue and ministers criticize the growing moral and spiritual decline of the Puritans [Music] um so all right concept of English Liberty uh this is just basically what does it mean to be the rights of an Englishman um because in England people have certain rights and they were told that if they come to America they'll have certain rights and there's this tension where like sometimes they weren't treated like English citizens and this was one of the things that also led to the American Revolution so just something to keep in the back of your mind that the people who lived in America were entitled to rights as an Englishman whether or not they got them all the time why is the Puritan treatment of Quakers on here again am I like losing my mind peon treatment of Quakers pman treatment of Quakers I guess this is very important so I will restate that the Puritans treated the Quakers like Heretics and they would kill you or fine you or mutilate you or throw you in prison or do whatever they could to get you out of their territory because they didn't like the Quakers apparently you got to know that the Maryland Toleration Act okay originally Maryland was the safe haven for the Catholics um But as time went on Protestants began outnumbered the Catholics in Maryland and this tension grew and so the Maryland Toleration Act was the this thing where everyone was allowed to practice whatever religion they want as long as it was trinitarian and not Puritan I think um so basically they were like as if you're Protestant or Catholic you can express your religion however you want but that those were basically the only allowed religions if you were not Christian that was not cool if you were not trinitarian that was not cool um so yeah that's chapter to my friends all right chapter 3 which thank the holy Lord and savior is significantly shorter than chapter 2 mercantilism another WAP term uh that makes a reappearance it was just an economic policy aimed at maximizing The Profit that comes from the colonies um basically the Mother Colony or the Mother Land should be making a bunch of money off the colonies maximize exports minimize Imports build a massive National wealth um number two Navigation Acts uh these were a series of laws passed by England uh they were to regulate colonial trade and ensure that it benefited England so if there was any trade going on that was not for the benefit of England it would not be allowed uh these acts required that good shipped on English ships oh these acts required that Goods be shipped on English ships and pass through English boards no freelance mercenary you have to use the English wi all right um the charter of Liberties and privilege this was was granted by the New York assembly and this Charter aimed to establish like a framework of self-governance and affirmed certain rights and contributed to this big like political diversity thing so all you have to know is that in Pennsylvania uh and New York they had a little bit they're a little bit more Progressive than some of the other places uh they had more rights for people in William Penn in Pennsylvania uh this was like the Quaker Safe Haven because the p hated them and basically every other persecuted religious group anyone was allowed this was Penn's holy experiment and he emphasized like a religious freedom and Democratic principles and good relations with the Native Americans so pretty good guy by modern standards William Penn so thank Pennsylvania New York more liberal Progressive like inclusive universal suffrage type stuff um more Enlightenment think Enlightenment uh Quakers they were uh dissed on by the purans whenever they got the chance and they were a religious group known for their pacifism uh meaning very peaceful egalitarian beliefs and opposed slavery these setle the settlement in Pennsylvania fostered like this religious diversity and attracted settlers from all over the place so the Quakers were pretty LAX uh good people but the Puritans hated them and called them Heretics for liking people that weren't Christian anyway origins of American slavery uh growth of slavery in Africa the West Indies British North America okay the demand for labor on these big plantations for like tobacco and sugar led to the growth of African slavery cuz they actually like killed the entire native populace with disease and they need someone to work these fields and there were not enough indentured servants so they turned to slaves from Africa uh the impact of the sugar and tobacco trade on slavery I kind of just explained that but they needed people to work and these crops made the British and everyone else Super Rich so they bought a an from other Africans and brought them to the new world and made them work so that was a thing that happened um problems of indented servitude and the shift to slavery okay um so Bacon's Rebellion let's go down uh Bacon's Rebellion this was a revolution replaced James II with William and Mary and strengthened parliamentary power this British political thing and it influenced American colonists by encouraging them to challenge Royal Authority um so the Glorious or not that the bacon Rebellion getting ahead of myself was kind of a almost a precursor to the American Revolution saying you can do it you can rebel against the British royalty um transition from a society with slaves to a slave Society uh this was just meaning that instead of the economy being centered around not slaves basically slaves became pivotal for the economy if you took slaves out of America you you weren't making any money previously it had been that you could use indented servants or natives but now that they were all gone and that the only way you were making money was off of these cash crops like tobacco you needed slaves to work the plantations and if you didn't have them you wouldn't make any money so you needed the slaves social and political crisises crises all right Glorious Revolution uh this was just like this whoa whoa whoa oh no okay so the thing that I just said the Glorious Revolution was the one in England the bacon rebellion was in Virginia I apologize the thing that I said earlier was the Glorious Revolution I'm like I'm tripping okay let me go back to the bacon Rebellion this was a rebellion of Virginia settlers led by this guy named Nathaniel Bacon hence the bacon Rebellion which is a sick name uh against the governor of Virginia the uprising was highlighting tensions between wealthy land owners and poor indentured servants um and after this the governor was like I'll just get African slaves because they aren't annoying um so that was why they another reason why to switch from indentured servitude to African slaves my apologies the Glorious Revolution was the Revolution in England that showed the Americans that they can fight back against the royalty my apologies the English Bill of Rights came out the same Mir as the Glorious Revolution it limited the powers of the monarchy and laid the foundation for a constitutional monarchy and it inspired the colonists to demand more rights and self-government so kind of like I said earlier part of the Glorious Revolution part of the reason why the colonists are starting to stand up to the royalty part of the reason that the American Revolution happens in 1776 Lords of trade and Dominion of New England the Dominion Consolidated several colonies under one Governor basically you know like the New England Patriots like that area so like Maine Vermont New Hampshire Connecticut Massachusetts that's New England it Consolidated a bunch of different colonies into one governor and basically the governor sucked so that didn't last very long um Leer's Rebellion this was a rebellion in New York led by this guy named Jacob Le Jacob lesler which is significantly less cool of a name than Nathaniel Bacon uh he fought against the ruling Elite driven by a broader context he looked at the Glorious Revolution and was like I want to do that um but it was also kind of focused on local grievances that they had with the wealthy land owners and it happened uh poor people fighting against rich people just like every other Rebellion English Toleration Act this act granted freedom to worship to most Protestants seizing some religious tensions did it fix everything no did it try to make things better yes English Toleration Act freedom of worship ship to most Protestants Salem wi trials oo boy if you were in honors English one I think we read The Crucible and so you kind of know what happened but if you weren't an honors English one basically the Salem which trials were I'm I was Puritans I hardly read the book I can't lie um but it was a series of hearings where they didn't really listen that much and they just decided that women some women that they came cross were uh captivated by the devil and they killed them so that was the thing that happened um yeah it was in Massachusetts it was Puritans it just kind of reflected that they were a little off the rails um yeah they someone was just like I think she's a witch and they were like yep sounds good and killed her so that was the state of religious Affairs in the late 17th century uh directions of social economic change in the 18th century colonies okay settlement patterns and back country expansion okay so people began moving westward in Back Country looking for land because the indentured servants they worked their seven years or whatever and they were like all right time to get my land and the English are like we don't have any land so we're just going to go take some from the natives over there so they did that um walking purchase of 1737 so this was a controversial land deal between the pen family and the laap that led to the displacement of Native Americans in Pennsylvania another case of being like English people being like I'm going to buy your land and the natives are like no and they're like too bad here's like $10 for the state of Pennsylvania and it's like all right so that was a thing uh just shows more English expansion consumerism and transatlantic triangular trade um so if you don't know what the triangle trade is it's Europe sends stuff to America America sends stuff back to Europe and Europe makes money and then Europe goes to Africa gets slaves sends them to America the slaves make money send stuff back to Europe and then they it's it's like a triangle you see um and consumerism was the growing demand for stuff in Europe everyone was like I like all this stuff I want more of the stuff and in order to make more of the stuff they need more people to build the stuff so in order to get more people to build this stuff they got people from Africa to build the stuff but they needed a place to build all the stuff so they brought them all to the new world which was the place where they built all the stuff for really cheap and then they brought it back to Europe where they got all the stuff so our knows that people wanted more stuff so they had to build more stuff all right difference in social classes in colonial America in the New England and middle colonies uh there were like small farms subsistence-based agriculture uh mixed economies it wasn't like the South where the only way to make money was off of cash crops it was more of a there very diverse economy some people did Timber some people did fishing some people did agriculture some people did mining but there wasn't really anything other than coal that wasn't useful yet um some staple crops for the New England was like wheat and grain and like there wasn't the toac like in the middle colonies in the South it was tobacco and rice and indigo but in the north they just had like wheat and it was boring uh labor source was mainly just family labor like you would have like nine kids and they would all work in the farm and indentured servants and of some slaves but they weren't critical to the economy like if you took out all the slaves the economy would still function up in the north chesap and southern colonies relied heavily on plantations tobacco rice indigo which was a die make a bunch of money and the labor source was family labor as well and desert servitudes as well but all slaves basically like 90 plus% of all the workers were slaves without slaves they couldn't build anything it wouldn't work the economy would fall apart slaves were necessary uh to harvest all this agriculture that made them so much money um Ang angiz englishif 5ed um this was the process by which the colonist became more culturally similar to England influencing social norms taste and governance like they lived in England they came to America and they were like let's bring England to America so they were like create making America like England um cuz England's the bomb just kidding uh poverty in America and American colonies um economic disparities grew with wealth concentrated in the hands of like a few Elite land owners like there were like a couple of guys who came over with a bunch of money and everyone else was poor um so I mean it was like the conditions weren't great your only job was to make build manufactured goods for cheap so you could sell them back to Europe at a discounted price so I mean that was what was happening most people were fairly poor and whatnot but anyway that's chapter 2 or chapter three now let's move on to chapter four we I finally arrived to chapter 4 uh a lot of these subjects have kind of been touched on in WAP and so if you take that this this chapter will be a little bit easier but uh it's necessary nonetheless starting with the Atlantic slave trade um this is pretty hopefully you guys all know about this it was just the force transportation of Africans from Africa normally sold by other Africans sadly to the Europeans and where they would take them across on a journey known as the Middle Passage well that's convenient and the middle passage was just this horrific often 2 to 3 month Voyage um where like 80 to 100 slaves would be put on one ship and they would be transported across the Atlantic in these destitute conditions to get from Africa to the New World um it was just really poor conditions most of them died I mean sorry not most of them a lot of them died um very very high mortality rate sometimes you would see half of them gone by the time they get there wasn't always that bad but it was not a fun journey by any means all right Chesapeake slavery it was just slavery in the Chesapeake region primarily Virginia and Maryland um it was mainly tobacco harvesting was the primary thing that they did there um it was chatel slavery which basically means that the slaves were considered property and they had no legal rights um Indian slavery this form of slavery was like Native Americans they were a slaved this was more taking place in the southern colonies New England it wasn't as widespread as African slavery whenever you hear slavery mentioned it will probably be talking about Africans and not Native Americans but they were enslaved on a smaller scale in the South um slavery in the north slavery in the northern colonies was um where are we oh yeah there we slavery in the northern colonies um it was still harsh it was less Central to the economy in the South they really relied on the plantation agriculture labor of like producing tobacco and that's how their economy survived in the north it was not that they were more subsistence-based Agriculture and the slaves were used for different things and they weren't as necessary to the economy which plays into the Civil War way down the road which is why the South and the north split because the South need the slaves for their economy to survive whereas the north does not um so yeah next melding of Christianity was traditional African beliefs okay it was just enslaved Africans would like combine their traditional beliefs with Christianity some of these forms um one of them that you might know is voodoo voodoo is a mix of African religion I forget exact it's called like vodon and then they mixed it with Christianity and you get this thing called Voodoo which is very popular popular in like Jamaica um so that the mixing of Christianity and African religions creates you things such as Gula uh well I guess this wasn't necessarily Christianity but it was a unique African culture that developed amongst the enslaved people primarily in the South um it Blended African languages Customs food ways cuz they all came from different parts of Africa and they would blend the different parts of African culture that they had together to make this thing called Gula all right resistance to slavery um both over and covert this was just the slaves rebelled quite often normally they never won the slave owners would always uh put down the Insurrection but they happened quite often they would either like purposefully work slow to sabotage or they would just openly Rebel and like start killing people um but you need to know the the primary thing that you need to know is that they were rebelling and they they did not like the conditions but who would it's slavery one example of this is the Stono Rebellion which was in the video that we learned about and the video that we watched um it was a significant slave rebellion and it was just it was the biggest Uprising and it was these slaves trying to get from uh where were they I don't know I think they were in South Carolina and they were trying to get to St Augustine to get their freedom and on the way they were burning all these plantations and eventually they clashed with Colonial militia and they they were unsuccessful they most of them died they were beheaded or shot blah blah and um but it shows that they were willing to risk their lives for freedom and where are we next okay I can describe the meaning of British Liberty in the 18 century republicanism okay republicanism has a lot of different forms throughout history um the way that it is in this context is like a political ideology centered around civic virtue and like the responsibility of uh the civic responsibility of a citizen um the the common good active participation in public affairs kind of lesser on the centralized Authority um so that is republicanism liberalism is more on the individual rights thinking like every like universal suffrage um everyone has innate rights that they are born with this is like life liberty Pursuit of Happiness this is John Lock he has like these beliefs that like humans are born with rights um and yeah so that's the thing and INF franchisement well it refers to the rights of grand or the right to vote people who get the right to vote if you were in franchise that means that you were allowed to vote in colonial America it was basically just white men who owned property as time progresses this gets more um Universal but in the colonial era the only people who were enfranchised were white men who own land so that's something to know salutory neglect here satutory neglect was a British policy that basically they just turned a blind eye to what was happening in the colonies as long as they were producing profit they didn't really care how it was done and they didn't really enforce regulations on the colonies and it was kind of like this mutual thing where it's like the colonies can be primarily independent as long as they were still being beneficial to the British crown and this is really fostered like a a sense of Independence in the Americans and that's one of the big factors that led to the American Revolution um but I mean it pretty cool they got they got to basically govern themselves so pretty nice and then what's next um 18th century colonial assemblies these were just like uh I think they were elected bodies um but they were these Colonial groups that had like autonomy and power and they were just like Regional governments basically and sometimes their power with like rival Royal Governors but was just kind of a beginning of autonomous government apart from the crown in the colonies public sphere this is a place for people it was like a it was like a coffee shop or a public forum it was where you would go and hang out you like exchange ideas and talk to other people it was like a common space where you just kind of hang out um whenever newspapers started happening this is where you'd go to like get the newspaper and you'd read it and you talk to other people about it blah blah blah blah speaking of newspaper it's the freedom of press in colonal America John Peter Zenger trial um this 1735 trial uh was a New York printer he criticized the New York or the colonial governor and the colonial Governor obviously didn't like that and then they took him to trial and the printer Juan which kind of established the Free Press where you could criticize the government and you wouldn't get killed for it which didn't happen for most of history for most of History you had to the Press was owned by the government so this is kind of a new a new revelation in the world um Enlightenment um if you took WAP you should know what this is um it was just like a new philosophical um movement that emphasiz like reason and truth and the human innate human value the context that you need to know this in is that the Americans love the enlightenment they were super affected by it which is why when the revolution happens in 1776 there three Li life liberty and the pursuit of happiness those are all Enlightenment ideals and they are super affected by the Enlightenment and that is what our constitution is based off of um so really it influenced America heavily all right Great Awakening Harrah let's come down here okay the Great Awakening was like this religious revival movement um 1730s 1740s and it emphasized like this emotional like religious experience like personal like you talking with god um it was like not between an institution that like a Roman Catholic Church that had been around forever it was like it was you and it was God and that was the connection you didn't talk to a priest who then talk to God or any of that it was a it was like a new it was kind of like a mini Reformation but um in the Americas so pretty cool Jonathan Edwards was a key figure in the Great Awakening he'd go around preaching and his most the most famous thing that you need know knows sinners in the hands of angry Gods both Jonathan Edwards and George Whitfield the main thing that you just need to know is they were very influential pre influential preachers who were responsible for the Great Awakening and the way that that changed the dynamic between Britain and America because America became America began having separate religious values than Britain which although not a primary reason was another reason that the American Revolution happened because you had this Roman Catholic churches and Anglican Church in England and then you had this super protestantes Church in colonial America and they started clashing but that's not super important George Whitfield was just a super charismatic preacher who'd go around and draw large crowds spreading the Great Awakening message all right the most exciting thing to end on you made it congratulations the geographic area of the Spanish Empire woohoo um it was just everything that wasn't the English or the French Colones basically or the Portuguese was Mo a lot of South America all of Mexico most of Central America Florida New Mexico California um they had the biggest swath of land that they started with uh father junao Sara I'm very sorry for butchering your name um he was a Spanish missionary and he was the first like he was the first person to go to California and preach the gospel um he played a key role in the Spanish colonization of California he kind of helped convert the populace and ushered in the Spanish colonist and he's the reason why they colonized California so that's cool um and then finally we're done the geographic area of French Empire uh this is just Canada parts of Canada called New France the Great Lakes region down the Mississippi River to New Orleans like Louisiana um and they had Haiti hi at this time I'm pretty sure as well once again mainly focused on economics and fur trading and beaver pelts and all the good moneymaking stuff and we did it hooray voila you now know everything that you need to know for the unit 2 test along I would definitely recommend doing the discussion questions and I would also recommend doing the practice test that is in the description and we made it uh good job W Lake hope you guys do great on this test see you later
