Unit Themes

1. Led by Washington and Hamilton, the first administration under the Constitution overcame various difficulties and firmly established the political and economic foundation of the new federal government

2. the cabinet debate over Hamilton’s financial measures expanded into a wider political conflict between Hamiltonian Federalists and Jeffersonian Republicans—the first political parties in America

3. The French Revolution created a severe ideological and political division over foreign policy between Federalists and Republicans. The foreign-policy crisis coincided with domestic political divisions that culminated in the bitter election of 1800. but in the end power peacefully passed from Federalists to Republicans

4. Jefferson’s effective, pragmatic policies strengthened the principles of two-party republican government, even though the Jeffersonian “revolution” caused sharp partisan battles between Federalist and Republicans over particular issues.

5. Despite his intentions, Jefferson became deeply entangled I the foreign-policy conflicts of the Napoleonic era.

6. Napoleon’s intrigues and the demands of western “war hawks” drew Madison into the War of 1812 with Britain. Although the conflict was vehemently opposed by New England Federalists, and the United States barely obtained a military stalemate, it aroused American nationalism and enabled westward-marching America to turn its back on Europe.

7. The aftermath of the War of 1812 produced a strong surge of American nationalism that was reflected in economics, law, and foreign policy. The rising nationalistic spirit was only temporarily threatened by the first severe sectional dispute over slavery.
