PART I: Please select one of the following questions and craft an essay-style response. Ensure that you address all aspects of the essay question. To support your arguments, paraphrase evidence (recall from memory) from the course material, such as primary sources, textbook, lecture notes, and videos. Provide analysis when discussing historical events or topics, focusing on what happened, why it occurred, and its significance. Aim to write at least five paragraphs to address the essay question fully. (Part 1 is worth 80 points)   Option 1: Why did the United States pursue imperialist policies in the late 19th century? Examine the various causes and motivations of 19th-century U.S. imperialism. How are the objectives of U.S. imperialism reflected in the causes of the Spanish-American War in 1898? Option 2: Discuss the purpose and significance of the Reconstruction Era. Compare and contrast Lincoln’s and Johnson’s reconstruction plans with the Radical Republicans’ plan. What are the central differences between Presidential and Congressional Reconstruction? Finally, discuss why historians argue that Reconstruction ultimately failed (hint: consider changes in the North and federal government policies). Option 3: Identify and examine the government policies and legislation that shaped “Indian” policy in the late 19th century. How did these policies affect Native American communities? Describe how Native Americans responded— whether by adapting, resisting, or negotiating with white settlers and the government.
