9 What s going on in Europe?
10
11 An important revolution (French Rev.) leads to the Empire of Napoleon (France). After that, the old European monarchies wanted to restore the old-fashioned Ancien Regime. This was impossible. Why? The people realised about their power.
12 A consequence of this impossibility = a new political system (a new way to organize a nation). New ideas on liberalism & nationalism were spreading all over Europe. The main consequence: series of liberal revolutions ( ).
13 The beginning of the Contemporary Era Page 48
14 The contemporary Era From the American / French Revolutions. To World War II (although we are living in the Contemporary Era; but the school calendar tells us that we need to take some holidays in June).
15 First steps for a change The place to be in Europe was France. Economy: collapsed and old-fashioned. Politics: the monarchy was out-oforder. Society: unhappy; the wish for a change by the majority; the desire to be ruled by the people, common people.
16 The main consequence of this unhappiness The French Revolution. A huge impact in later societies and even today. 16
17 The Revolution begins The changes came from the political & ideological side. This revolution was much more complex than the Industrial Revolution (economic revolution mainly).
18 A symbol to start with
19 July 14th, 1789 The Storming of the Bastille
20 What type of changes did the French Revolution bring?
21 Permanent changes. Political organization changes. A new structure of society. End of the Ancien Regime: Absolutist monarchy. Privileged estates. Absence of freedom or rights for majority.
22 But, did all these changes happen just like that?
23 NO
24 The origin of the USA: The Puritans
25 The influence of the New World represented by the British colonists was huge.
26 Pamphlet appeared in January 9, 1776
27 There was no going back. American freedom could never be secure under the British Crown. The time had come to correct the errors in Britain s constitution. And...
28 The time had come to found new governments free of kings and hereditary rule, governments in which all officials owed their power to popular choice.
29 What s going on in America?
30 A new country based on freedom, equality and happiness
31 A new country too far away from (the old vices of) Europe
32 A new beginning A new opportunity An experiment
33 The symbol of America (Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass)
34
35 EQUALITY All the leaves are equal
36 A republic The same rights The same tasks
37 Opposing the oldpyramidal based society coming from Europe
38
39 Why could they do this in America?
40 Because they did not have HISTORY; it was a virgin country.
41 The American revolution The beginning of everything Page 49
42 Virginia Bill of Rights George Mason (June 12,1776) That all men are by nature equally free and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot by any compact deprive or divest their posterity; namely the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety.

50 Historical statements of The Declaration of Independence
51 When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and Nature s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.
52 We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
53 That these United Colonies are, and of R i g h t o u g h t t o b e, F R E E A N D INDEPENDENT STATES; that they are absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political Connection between them and the State of Great- Britain, is and ought to be totally disolved.
54 And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm Reliance on the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

58 Pledge of Allegiance

60 "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
61 They (the Americans) are the hope of this world. They may become its model. From the letter of Anne Robert Jacques Turgot, Baron de L Auline to Dr. Richard Price (March 22, 1778)
62 But the American Revolution was not only the Declaration of Independence
63 It was also known as the American War of Independence
64 From 1775 to 1783
65 USA independence: Destruction of King George III, the British King
66
67 Why were the 13 Colonies looking for independence?
68 T h e fi r s t c o l o ny w a s s e t t l e d i n Massachussets in The colonists moved South until Georgia. But in mid-18th century, the colonists feelings towards Great Britain changed. They felt different and they decided to build a new country ( Manifest Destiny ).
69 Manifest Destiny They were chosen by God to be there. They were there to do something great.
70
71 The efective causes for independence Colonies and Great Britain were diverging. Different life styles and different interests & thoughts. Main complains: High taxes to be paid to Great Britain. No political representation for Colonies in the Parliament.
72 War Colonies France Natives Great Britain Natives
73 End of the War
74 September 3rd, 1783 The Treaty of Paris. The Independence of United States of America.

76 The next step: The Constitution
77 Created September 17th, Ratified by the majority (9 out 13) of the States June 21, 1788.
78 We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

83 A new political order Page 51
84 The new political order was coming for the first time from the New World, from America. The big issue was the importance of the PEOPLE, common people, like you and your families, and your friends. Governments with no divine powers for certain orders (monarchy or church), so EQUALITY is a core characteristic.
85 The spirit of the Constitution The POWER and SOVEREIGNITY of the country resides in the people. The separation of the powers of the State in three: Legislative power. Executive power. Judicial power.
