APUSH Period 3 Review

Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton had different views on all of the following EXCEPT

• their belief in the power of the US Constitution
• whether America should be a commercial or agrarian society
• the amount of power the federal government should have
• the importance of a national bank

From 1787-1800, many Americans felt that the English and French failed to treat the United States as a major power in this era.  All of the following are evidence of that EXCEPT

• the Convention of 1800
• Jay's Treaty
• the XYZ Affair
• the treatment of American ships by the British during the 1790s

The Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions

• stated that individual states do not have to enforce laws that states consider unconstitutional
• expressed support for the US Constitution
• expressed opposition to the government actions in putting down the Whiskey Rebellion
• were written in opposition to the economic policies of Alexander Hamilton

The weakness of national government created by the Articles of Confederation was demonstrated by the fact that it was not given the power to

• issue taxes
• mediate disputes between states
• conduct foreign relations
• print money

Women were important in the Revolutionary War effort because they

• maintained economic stability in the colonies by managing households across the colonies while men were off fighting the British
• provided several delegates to the Second Continental Congress
• wrote influential articles in colonial newspapers urging the colonies to resist the British
• provided much of the financial backing for the colonial cause

At the beginning of the Revolutionary War, the British were extremely confident of victory for all of the following reasons EXCEPT

• they had outstanding generals that would be commanding British forces in the Americas
• there were many Loyalists throughout the American colonies
• the British had an outstanding navy
• the Continental Army was continually  lacking in supplies

Most delegates at the First Continental Congress of 1774

• felt that the colonies should firmly resist measures to tax them without their consent
• felt there should be a total boycott of British goods by the colonies
• felt it was time to seriously consider military measures against the British
• proposed sending Benjamin Franklin and John Dickinson as representatives to the British parliament

After the Seven Years' War, resentment between the British and the colonists existed for all of the following reasons EXCEPT

• the British resented the fact that few colonists had actually helped them in the war against the French
• British soldiers had been quartered in colonial homes
• colonial minutemen felt the British exhibited a patronizing attitude towards them
• many colonial militiamen were appalled at the incredibly harsh discipline that British officers imposed on their soldiers

The statement "taxation without representation is tyranny" was first proclaimed by

• Samuel Adams
• Benjamin Franklin
• John Hancock
• Patrick Henry

The Stamp Act created great fury in the colonies because

• this was the first time that Parliament imposed a direct tax on the colonies
• it imposed massive duties on the colonies
• it took badly needed revenue away from colonial legislatures
• colonial legislatures had expressed opposition to it in advance
