The events from the early 19th century are relevant to our lives today. Its relevant to our lives today because all of the events of the 19th century is our history, its excellent knowledge and some of the events are significant to 2010. The events are significant because some of the events are rare, it informs people about what occurred, the events improved the society, it protected people rights, it liberates, teaches a lesson, etc. Some the events led the people and the world to where we are today. For example because of the Haitian Delegation, Haiti was the first Independent African American Country. It can help us face 2010 because by studying Hamilton’s economic plan it can give advice and new ideas on ways to improve today’s economy.
ReplyDeleteI would say that the 19th century is relevant to today. I say this because without the 19th century we wouldn’t have any history in our social studies and we wouldn’t have the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. They are very important dates in our history mostly in the 19th century. Most of these events are significant to 2010. Some events like I said were the Declaration of Independence. This document gave all of Americans their freedom. It said that the Thirteen American colonies that are at war with Great Britain were now independent states and those were under control by the British Empire are no longer a part of the British Empire. This document protects peoples freedom and their right to be an independent person and American.

ReplyDeleteThe events in the 19th century are important to our lives today. It’s relevant to our lives today because it is important not to make the same mistake twice. Like making the laws that would hurt everyone. The British made laws that people weren’t happy of and started a commotion. So if the history was lost and no knows anything about it, the government would probably make the same mistake again and have another war. In conclusion, that is why the events in the 19th century are important to our lives today.

ReplyDeleteI think that events from the early nineteenth century are relevant to our lives today because some things that went on or that were invented are still used today. Also some things that went on, affect us today. For example, yellow fever is relevant to today because back then in Philadelphia, there used to be about 50,000 people but after yellow fever hit them the first time, one tenth of them died. Yellow fever is still around today but only in South America and Africa. A vaccine was also produced in the 1930’s so that helps us today with yellow fever. Also some documents from back then give us the freedom we need and gives us our rights. Also events from the early nineteenth century are relevant because it informs us about things we may need to know. For example diaries from back then can inform us about that person and what went on during his or her life.
ReplyDeleteWe all should care about what happened in the nineteenth century. This does effect what happens in 2010. Most things in the 1800s changed the way we live now. Yellow fever changed us, so did war hawks and doves. Everything is history and it will effect the future in one way or another. They can teach lessons, show mistakes, and improve the way we live. People back then could have ideas that could have been useful, may be useful now, and could help us in the future.
ReplyDeleteOf course, the events and people of the 19th century matter because if most of the events that happen made us who we are today! There were many important inventions that were made in the 19th century that led to even more inventions today. For example, steam power was invented int the 19th century, and is still used today in nuclear power plants. And the War Doves. They were around in the 19th century and there are many people around like today concerning the war in Iraq. How about Yellow Fever? We are facing the almost same situation now with the H1N1 virus. All of these events are significant to us today.
ReplyDeleteThe events from the early 19th century are relevant to our lives today because it is all history. Technology increased all around the world and laws were changed. Yellow fever were a big problem back then to people. In the 19th century, Yellow Fever was known for one of the most dangerous infectious diseases. Later on a vaccine was made for this deadly disease.Yellow Fever caused about 200,000 illnesses and 30,000 deaths each year in unvaccinated parts of the world. Many inventions were also made in the 19th century. For example, the first steam locomotive and the first electric light. Everything from our past leads to our past. The past is all history.

ReplyDeleteEvents from the 19th century are relevant to our lives today. It is our history, and we should embrace it, not forget about it. One event that occurred was the Doves vs. War Hawks. This is very significant to the Jefferson era because without the war between Britain and America, we wouldn't have gained our Independence. Another event is the Declaration of Independence being written- one of the most important American documents of all time. Yellow fever was also an important event in the Jefferson era. There was no vaccine back then, so many people suffered and died of the sickness. Now there is a vaccine, because yellow fever has still showed up in a few other countries. The last important event is the invention of steam power. We use steam power today, often. It is used in (hence the name) steamboats and most nuclear power plants. Overall, events from the past are very important to how we view our world today, and can even help us in some ways! We should not ignore them.
ReplyDeleteThe events that happened in history are, in fact, important today.
ReplyDeleteThey are important because the events and people from the 1800s and all throughout history have shaped the entire world into what it is now. It is important for us to know about the people who changed the world and the events that they caused. Without history, we would not exist. Instead, we would know nothing of what was past and what is present.
Without history, we would be nothing.
In my opinion the events from the early nineteenth century are relevant to our lives now in 2010 because we still use some items or other things invented back then. For example back then yellow fever appeared for the first time in the early nineteenth century. Yet yellow fever is still around today but luckily in the 1930’s a vaccine was invented to stop yellow fever. Another reason is we have made mistakes in the early nineteenth century and if we know about those mistakes we won’t make them again. One example is when British made laws and a lot of people were unhappy with them. Then a war occurred because of that and if there wasn’t any records of what happened then we might make the same mistake again. If this were to occur then there might be another war. The third reason is we wouldn’t have the Declaration of Independence. As you can see the early nineteenth century is very relevant to us in the early twentieth century.
ReplyDeleteThe events that occurred in the 19th century are a big part of our lives. It is our past, our history, and we should remember it. One of the important events that occurred in the past is the Doves and the War Hawks. Without the war between America and Britain, we wouldn’t have been able to gain independence for our country. Another event was Yellow Fever. There were no cure or vaccine back then, which result many people dying. Even now we have the Yellow Fever still occurring in some countries. As you can see, the history of our past created what we are now. We should study more about the past and grow with this country.

ReplyDeleteThe events in 1810 are relevant to 2010 because this history has shaped our society. If some of these events didn’t take place in 1810, we would be living differently now. For example, the War Hawks and the Doves. If the War Hawks weren’t at war with Britain, America would’ve never gained its independence. The Haitian Delegation is also relevant because it abolished slavery in Haiti and France and made Haiti the first free black republic. In 1810, steam power was invented and it’s still used today in nuclear power plants. Another event is the Yellow fever epidemic. There was no vaccine back then, and one tenth of the population died. Today there is a vaccine for Yellow Fever, which is still around today in many foreign countries. We should not ignore events from the past because they have shaped our country.
ReplyDeleteThe 19th century is still relevant to our lives today. During the Jefferson era many important things happened that shaped America’s history and made America what it is today. If steam power wasn’t invented we might not have had transportation or if Jefferson hadn’t purchased the Louisiana territory from France, America would have been half the amount smaller. If Lewis and Clark hadn’t searched the Louisiana territory we wouldn’t know what was on the other part of America and the friendship between the Native Americans and us wouldn’t have been as strong as it was before. The 19th century was very important to America, because a lot of important situations happened during the Jefferson era that we learn now in social studies.
ReplyDeleteI think that we should care about the Jefferson Era, it's our past and if we didn't have that part of the past then it wouldn't be the same right one. If the wasn't the war of 1812 with the War Hawks America wouldn't have gain independence. Also steam power and Lewis and Clark. We would still have the yellow fever and there would still be slavery. Another reason is the Declaration of Independence. We learned from the past and we can grow on it. The past is important to us.
ReplyDeleteThe events from the early 19th century are relevant to our lives today in a couple of ways. One of these ways is that we don’t want history to repeat itself. For example, we’re going through a tuff economic time. We can look back in history, see what people did to boost the economy, and do the same today. Another reason that it’s relevant is that some of the problems in the early 19th century are still a problem today. For example: famine, starvation, disease, sexism, and racism. If we study these issues, we can learn more about them, which will bring us a step closer to solving these problems and facing 2010.
ReplyDeleteI think the events in the nineteenth century are still relevant in the year 2010 because if it wasn’t for the events during the nineteenth century we would continue making mistakes because many people have already made these mistakes and we learn from these mistakes. There were some diseases back then which killed many people but now we have a vaccine. If the War Hawks didn’t declare war we wouldn’t have gotten or independence from the British. The more we correct our mistakes, the more we become stronger that is why the nineteenth century is relevant to us.
ReplyDeleteI believe the events from the early 19th century are still relevant to our lives now in 2010 because some of the things that were invented are still used today and things that went on changed society. Such as yellow fever is still VERY relevant to today because back then when it hit for the 1st time 10% of the people in Philadelphia. In Africa and South America yellow fever is still around but there was a vaccine invented in the 1930’s so that helps us today with yellow fever, steam power was invented in the 19th century and it is still used for nuclear power plants, and last the war hawks & doves many people are still thinking the same way about the war going on in Iraq. Everything that has happened in the past is history and everything that happens in the past will in someway effect the future, the people back then had very good ideas that still helps of survive now and no doubt will help survive in the near future.
ReplyDeleteStudying 1810 is a relevant choice for facing 2010. We learn about the past problems of our nation so we can stop history from repeating its worst and change the world. We also learn about the past because some of the techniques they used back then can help us stop wars, build industries, solve economic problems, etc. Also, we can learn from past mistakes and make sure not to make those same mistakes in our time now.
ReplyDeleteI believe that it is important to learn about the Jefferson Era in 1810 so we prepare ourselves for 2010. I think that because it is important to study the past so we prepare ourselves for the distant future. History repeats itself, because people never learn. Something that happened, could happen again.
ReplyDeletewe should care because that era was important. it was the begining time for america. during that time america a new free country was now expanding its terriotory range. this was making america stronger. the government then had to deal with some people obligating thier rules. this to me is why the jefferson era is important. this era is an important part also because the democratic-republican party was introduced. today there is now a democratic and republican party.
ReplyDeleteThe events from the 19th century are relevant to our lives today because, Events that happened before are changing how we see the world today. If there wasn't any steam powered engines, we would have to transport our goods by cattle or foot. It can help us face 2010 because by studying Hamilton’s economic plan it can give advice and new ideas on ways to improve today’s economy. Many of the events that happened in the 19th century, are also changing the way we change things. We first have to think of what has been changed and build on it. The past is a something we need to develop on and build on. This is why we should care.

ReplyDelete1810 can relate to 2010 because many things that happened in the nineteenth changed the way we live now. War hawks and doves changed our views on war. Also, steam power changed our views on technology. Without these things we would not be as advanced or know as much as we do now.
