Btw - Yup, Dawes Act was the correct answer.
I put overproduction as the main problem farmers faced, because I remembered United States set up the Open Door policy and stuff to acquire markets where they could sell the surplus.

OH yeah! I put transportation, last minute. D, I think.

Collegehelllp

"Ante" should have given it away. Do you remember what the question was for that topic?

Mr. Prez - I had something about transportation, but then I realized the question was referring to the post-war period, so I changed it to something else.

Butternut

You're right, COllegehelllp, it should have given it away. *smacks forehead against wall*

MrPrez

Post revolutionary war, right? Idk, I just thought of Transcontinental Railroad and put transportation as the answer.

Poisonous

Thats not right, the answer was to style after European armies.

and
Antebellum = before the civil war. I can't remember the question or I would tell you what I got.

star_s

Post Civil War, I thought. I know Clay's American System called for transportation as "internal improvements," but I wasn't sure if that continued 1860+

MrPrez

Poisonous - Was it really to style after European armies? I was debating between that and the money one; I ended up picking the latter because I didn't think American revolutionary soldiers fought like Europeans. Didn't they do guerilla tactics and what not?

Collegehelllp

Did you guys get Iroquois or Powhatan for the Native American alliance question?

Also, the only thing that did not try to restrict African Americans from voting was a loyalty oath?

MrPrez

I put Iroquois Confederacy. I put loyalty oath.

wink

I had Iroquois and loyalty oath.

MP - militias would have been a lot cheaper than an army. The Continental Army was actually, in many ways, modeled after the British army (uniformed, European formations, etc.). The guerilla warfare was kind of an on-the-side thing for an added advantage, I think. But what do I know?

Poisonous

The American System was really only a big deal in the 1820-30's. Antebellum is definitely before the civil war:

antebellum - Definition from the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary

By the way, was the second to last one, the one about US involvment in Cambodia, the choice with Khmer Rogue in it? Thats what I guessed.


Yea I put the Iriquois and loyalty, but the Powhatan could also have worked..

MrPrez

I put to cut of supply lines, if that's the problem you are talking about

Collegehelllp

I got the same answer, but apparently another name for the Iroquois Confederacy is "Five Nations," wasn't that an option as well?

MrPrez

It was "Five Tribes"
