ssay is due by midnight on Wednesday, June 8. Select one of the questions below and write a paper that is three to four typed, double-spaced pages with standard font and margins. You should draw on what weve learned in Units One through Four and you should provide plenty of specific examples from the readings as evidence. Use of outside sources is not prohibited, but you should primarily utilize information from your textbook and from our discussion forum. If you do consult any outside sources, they MUST be cited. If you do not know how to do this, please check with me individually. Once you have written your essay in one of the supported formats (preferably .doc or .docx), you should submit it via the assignment link above, where it will be vetted for academic integrity by SafeAssign. Be sure to clearly indicate which question you are answering. After the American Revolution, the newly formed United States of America adopted as its motto the phrase E pluribus unum -- from many, one. Taking into consideration what youve learned about the formative years of the colonies, the lead up to and fighting of the American Revolution, and the establishment of a new nation, write an essay in which you explore the significance of that motto and the extent to which you think it adequately reflects the state of things in the U.S. by the end of the 1700s. How and why did thirteen separate colonies become united as an independent nation over the course of the early 1600s through the late 1700s? What conditions or steps were necessary in order for that process to happen? In framing your response, youll want to consider how/why the colonies differed from one another leading up to the Revolution as well as the factors that brought them together. An excellent response will also address some of the lingering obstacles the United States faced to achieving a sense of unity even after the Revolution had been fought and won.
