PLEASE HELP!! 20 POINTS A) The chapter revolves around the further development of the idea of republicanism in American society during the early nineteenth century. Explain the origins of this belief and how this idea influenced or revealed itself in TWO of the following areas during this period:

The economy
Social structures
Religion

B) Explain how republicanism in one of the above areas caused significant challenges to traditional beliefs or practices, or represented a major change.

A. The idea of republicanism started with the founding fathers in the 18th century. This idea of republicanism was not really just a type of government but also a way of living and a rejection to aristocracy.The first way this could be seen was throughout the social structures. Now there was the idea of Republican Motherhood which placed emphasis on encouraging women to teach republican values to children, since they were the ones that would shape America's moral and intellectual character. Secondly, it could be seen in religion.  State support for religion declined after Independence and there was more demand for freedom of religion. Some Churches adopted Republican systems of control and many Americans joined churches that promoted spiritual equality.

B. The idea of republicanism had a big impact on social structures. Now the rights of women and their role in education increased. They were now valued more since they were raising the next Generations with the Republican point of view. Since women were believed to be the ones that had to teach the children they were permitted to receive more of an education than they had been previously allowed.

Got a 100 on edge

the california missions began in the late 18th century as an effort to convert native americans to catholicism and expand european territory. there were 21 missions in all, lasting from 1769 until about 1833.   the missions were built by the spanish starting in 1769 in order to “colonize” the territory of alta california. so the missions were important because they were the means of settling california. it also wanted to keep other european countries out of alta california. building settlements along the coast would them meet these goals. missionaries wanted to convert the indians to the roman catholic faith. california indians did much of the work to build missions.
