Westward expansion 3. immigration 4. industrialization 5. urbanization 6. spanish american war 7. ww1 8. roaring twenties 9. Harlem renaissance (defined as: the numbers of blacks in america doubled in size) 10. prohibition 11. suffrage 12. great depression (my son's note: women wanted to vote so men got depressed) 13. New Deal 14. WW 2 15. Holocaust (hitler's rule caused the death of 6 million Jews-only jews) 16. The use of nuclear weapons 17. cold war 18. korean war 19. civil rights 20. vietnam war 21. collapse of communism And that's US History from 1877 to present. Have a good day. Mickey
