    Terms to Know: Identify and explain the significance of each term below

    Judiciary Act of 1789 (p. 216) Establishes Supreme Court with one chief justice and five associate
    judges to rule on decisions made in court. Also included court of appeals and district courts.

    Bank of the United States (p. 218) Founded by Alexander Hamilton, it was meant to give a central
    system for banks to be created, so taxes can easily be paid.

    French Revolution (p. 219) A revolution, where France tried to gain their freedom from the monarchy.

    Naturalization, Alien, and Sedition Acts (p. 224) Laws passed by John Adams that restricted immigration.
    The Sedition Acts also allowed no one to criticize the government in any way.

    Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions (p. 225) Jefferson and Madison decided that they can nullify now.

    Marbury v. Madison (1803) (p. 231) Marbury’s papers were not sent in, meaning that he was
    promised a job that he doesn’t have, leaving him jobless. Marbury attempts to sue in court, but the
    judicial system is not having it and rule for Madison.

    Embargo Act of 1807 (p. 234) When Britain attacked American ships, Jefferson responded by refusing
    to let America trade with England. This impacted American markets poorly and led to economic
    depression.

    Treaty of Ghent (p. 241) The treaty that ended the war of 1812. Ended in a stalemate, with no land
    gained from either side.

    McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) (p. 241) McCulloch sued the bank of Maryland for taxing him, and the
    Supreme Court took his side because they did not have the power to do that.

    Henry Clay (p. 241) A senator who is always out compromising.

    John Quincy Adams (p. 243) The sixth president of the United States, who is a huge nepo baby. He
    was very much a Whig and wanted Whig stuff like infrastructure being created, but his presidency was
    marked with the corrupt bargain (JQA gets the presidency if Clay remains senator), and therefore he is
    unpopular.

    Review Questions: Answer these questions to demonstrate your understanding of the chapter’s
    main ideas

    1. Why did Alexander Hamilton, as Washington’s first secretary of the treasury, advocate the creation of
    a permanent national debt and a national bank? What fears did his economic plans arouse in his
    Republican opponents? He advocated for it so it is easier to keep track of money and assume state
    debts. However, many Republicans feared that he was overreaching.

    2. What were the principal effects of the French and Haitian Revolutions in the United States? How did
    they influence the development of the American economy, American politics, and westward
    development? Both countries forced Washington to make a farewell address that tells us NOT to make
    social and political allies with other countries.

    3. What forces — ideological, political, and economic — led the United States to gain dominance over
    eastern North America in these years? Jefferson’s agrarian society, banks in NY.

    4. Explain the rise and fall of the First Party System. How did the policies implemented by Republican
    presidents between 1801 and 1825 differ from those implemented during the 1790s? Why did the
    Federalists fall out of favor? What legacy did the Federalists leave? The Federalists decline due to being
    seen as cowards and weak, after they met about seceding. They were quickly replaced by the Whigs.
    After Adams came a rise of democratic republican presidents.

    5. THEMATIC UNDERSTANDING Look at the events listed under “Work, Exchange, and Technology” and
    “Politics and Power” for the period 1800– 1820 on the thematic timeline on page 149. What was the
    relationship in these years between the activism of the national government and developments in the
    American economy?
