Colombian Expo 1893 May 1

http://xroads.virginia.edu/~ma96/wce/history.html


I think this article tells more about the Expo and gives us an image of a clear modern industrialization in United States. We can notice the name as J.P. Morgan (Era of Giant Finance or U.S. Steel) being involved in organization of the event. The amount of people who came all over the world is spectacular approximately there were 30.000.000 people and 25 percent of U.S. people have seen the fair in person.

Midterm

Having all these battles behind from the chapters that we have read. I would like to see the questions as "Why young U.S. had the battles?" or "What did U.S. achieved after the them?". Also the test with the choices false and true would be more than ideal. Remembering all chapters the most memorable ones for me were about Civil War one, Reconstruction, Renaissance of U.S. In my opinion Essay never hurts especially after our last assignment (Federalist No 10), we could try to write again by choosing one of the highlights from history. All three topics that i have wrote above were interesting to know and in my head they have an important weight in U.S. History. The additional list of Presidents in order by year would be plus i think. For general education and overall background of them why they were chosen and what did they do to be elected and memorable.

As soon as i started reading the chapter 13 I realized what a big information this chapter have, literally there was a lot of stuff going on.Which made me look for the video that would help me don't miss the details. According to the chapter there is a war between Mexico and America for California and it was even before when people found the gold. Interestingly enough people were laid back at that time in CA because now young generation like me think that time came recently and California's social progress was not always there.
