hmmm for the federalist era ending... emmm the Revolution of 1800 ofcs lol... which for one is important because the federalists lost power but also because it showed democracy and the exchange of power was relatively free of violence and bloodshed... if this revolition had not occured without violence the fragile republic of the US would have been dismembered from that point. Basically it showed the US was there to stay.

Procrastination- that would be a raw score of 90-10 (omitted)= 80- .25(wrong)= 80- .25(10) = 80-2.5=77.5 rounded up to 78 according to Kaplan review is a 790 =)

What was the answer to the Election of 1860 question? I think I put that Lincoln won the election but didn't win the popular vote.

I thought that the question about federalism said something about like "when did the 20 year reign of federalists end?"

I'm pretty certain Progressivism died with the rise of conservatism. Remember immediately after Wilson, who was progressive, three conservative, pro-business, Republican presidents came into power (Harding, Coolidge, Hoover).

Also immediately after WWI, we went into isolationism so it wasn't stuff going on abroad.

It asked for why did Progressivim end in 1917?
We entered WWI in 1917, whereas Harding was not elected until 1921.
