Here is a summary of key events that changed America beginning with:
* 1776, American Colonies declare independence from the British Empire;
* US independence is recognized by the world by the Treaty of Paris in 1783;
* 1789, the US establishes a democratic Constitutional government. First real democratic one in recent history;
* 1803, the Louisiana Purchase vastly increases the size of its country;
* 1846, the US vastly increases in size by the victory over Mexico;
* 1865, the US Civil War ends and the Northern States continue with industrial production. Slavery is abolished; and
* 1870, the US continues to make strides in becoming a strong industrial world power.
In 1776, the United States was comprised of the 13 colonies. By 1870, the U.S. had expanded beyond the Mississippi River to the states of Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Texas. Oklahoma was still a territory. The U.S. had the states of California, Nevada, and Oregon on the west coast. Territories were between the west coast states and the states beyond the Mississippi River. Visit the Related Link for a map of how the US's size changed from 1776 to 1870.
The role of slavery changed in Missouri from 1850 to 1870 because slavery was officially abolished in 1865, although after that there were still slaves. In the 1850's, it was still common practice to have slaves.
