I. Great Awakening:
George Whitefield
"Father Abraham, whom have
you in heaven? Any Episcopalians? No! Any Presbyterians? No! Any Independents
or Methodists? No, No No! Whom have you there? We don't know those names here.
All who are here are Christians...Oh, is this the case? The God help us to forget
your party names and to become Christians in deed and truth." GW
How is the Great Awakening a
challenge to British authority?
II. The American Enlightenment:
(THINK FRANKLIN)
III. French and Indian War
“play
off” system
Battle
of Quebec:
Sept.
13, 1759
50 warships
200
transport ships
8500
men
General
James Wolfe:
“The paths of glory lead but to
the grave.”
How is the French and Indian War
a challenge to British authority?
III. Economic Shift
What is industrialism and how
does it change the historical trajectory of the world?
POWER:
Thomas
Newcomen (1702)
James
Watt (1763)
STEEL PRODUCTION:
Britain: 1.3 million tons in 1840
6.7
million tons in 1870
10.4
million tons in 1913
Germany :
.19
million tons in 1840
1.56
million tons in 1870
19.3
million tons in 1913
The Factory System:
Division of Labor
(Industrialism specializes: Adam
Smith)
IV. Land Conflicts
A.
Susquehannah Company
(Pennamite
Wars)
B.
Paxton Boys
C. South Carolina Regulators
D. North Carolina Regulators
E. The Boston Fire of 1760
F. The Great Migration of 1773
From 1763 to 1776 there was an
influx of immigrants into British North America:
55,000 Protestant
Irish
40,000 Scots
30,000 English
12,000 Germans (mostly to Philadelphia)
84,500 enslaved Africans
How might this immigration
alter the historical trajectory of the colonies?
By the way, total population of
the
13 colonies was about 2.5
million…
and the largest city in the colonies in 1776 is Philadelphia with
25,000.
…one example, a family of four
from Heuchelheim, Germany.
