1. Based on Annals of the Congress of the United States, America’s major complaint against Great Britain was their defiance of basic rights put into place at sea, and addressed how Britain refused to halt their actions - despite being aware of these rights.
2. Congressman Calhoun’s statements in The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States really supported the anti-British sentiment expressed in the Congressional report on *slide 18*. The Congressional report describes the ways Britain violated the agreements put into place when at sea, and how that was a major complaint of U.S. citizens. Congressman John Calhoun talks about the ‘personal liberties of our citizens’ and says that ‘these rights are being essentially attacked.’ He argued that a nation’s ability to protect the rights of its citizens is what makes it great - and that Britain’s actions are threatening those rights. As a reaction to Britain’s persistent antagonism, Calhoun felt that America had to resist; the nation had to retaliate.
3. Congressman John Randolph believed that America’s personal greed for farmland ― not the protection of people’s rights was what caused the War of 1812. Congressman Randolph believed that the disputes at sea had nothing to do with America’s hunger for a second war with Britain.
4. President Madison declared war during the Annals of Congress in June 1, 1812. Before the start of the war, the American people expressed many sentiments concerning an ongoing conflict between the United States of America. However, these beliefs often contrasted with each other. Some people believed that America should declare war for the continued protection of the rights of the people. However, others people believed that those advocating for the war were only interested in personal gain, and more importantly, Western Expansion. Madison’s beliefs fell into the ideals of protecting the rights of the people. He said that ‘seafaring citizens were the victims of lawless violence’ and felt that a second war with Great Britain was the only way to take back control and give rights back to the people.
5. The Western and Southern states favored war with England in 1812.
6. The New England region opposed war with England in 1812.
7. The information expressed in slides #18, #19, and #21 supported the ideas that Britain was violating the rights of seafaring Americans, and that this was enough grounds for war. However, the data presented in slide #22’s map directly contradicts the idea mentioned above. While the Maritime and Commercial Mid-Atlantic States would theoretically be the most affected by Britain’s actions, they were, as a majority, opposed to the war. This contradicted the information expressed in the other slides, and actually supports the views shown by Congressman John Randolph. It proved that Americans wanted a second war with Great Britain for reasons other than rights for seafaring Americans.
8. The Federalist Party totally opposed the War of 1812.
9. On the other hand, the Democratic-Republicans strongly favored it.
10. President Madison belonged to the Democratic Republican Party.
11. Congressman Hugh Nelson’s letter -written in July, 1812- explained his personal beliefs, demonstrated his reasoning behind voting for the War of 1812. He felt that the war would show America’s ability to unite, writing ‘the people of these states were united, one and indivisible.’ He also wanted to show that the government was actually competent, and to protect the rights of the people. Lastly, he wanted war to ‘repel all foreign aggression’ from the country ― finally ending the attacks on American shipping and sailors which happened many times before the war.
12. The Western and Southern regions supported the reelection of President Madison.
13. The New England region, on the other hand, opposed his reelection.

4.He is saying that due to the British taking their ships and sailors, which he considered lawless, that they have to go to war.

Document 2: Congressman Calhoun supports this claim by stating how the US needed to protect its rights and honor, and if Britain continued to violate them, they would need to take action.

DBQ- Classwork
According to this congressional report, America’s major complaint against Great Britain was that of impressment, in that they complained about Britain taking their rights of freedom of the seas. For instance, Britain captured every American ship,and took their people as slaves. Not only did they use the system of impressment to take people into their navy, but they prevented trade and commerce routes for the Americas
The statement by congressman Calhoun supports document 1 in that it explains how the war would be pursued, if Britain kept depriving America of their liberties. As document 1 states the major complaints of British actions prior to war, document 2 further acknowledges this by sateing Calhoun’s reasons as to why he foresaw the war.
Congressmen Randolph believed the ideas of Agrarian Cupidity were those in which were “really” behind the talk about war with England. He states that rather than maritime rights, Canadian temptation for new land, as well as being “showed” all kingdoms of the earth, will urge the war.
According to the excerpt from Madison’s declaration of war, the primary reason for the war of 1812 was that in which viewed that Britain was at fault by depriving America’s liberties of the sea,in which includes actions like “Wrestled Vessels taken into British Ports”
Regions that favored war with England: The regions that favored war with England were the Western and Southern states in America. A group of Democratic-Republicans called ‘War Hawks’ felt that war was necessary and vocally advocated for it. Most people in these regions shared the beliefs with the political party in question.These regions felt that the war would bring justice and serve as a benefit to the conflicts that they were facing, in which they pursued the war would help. Additionally, those who favored the war with England in 1812 were mostly Anti-Federalists, as the federalists strongly opposed the war.
Regions that opposed war with England:The regions in which opposed the war with England in 1812 were those in which contained federalists. Opposition to the war was common in the U.S, but New England was commonly known as being a major region in which significantly opposed the war. In doing so, controversy over political, economic, and religious issues were those in which were the main reasons several regions opposed. Additionally, the concepts of ideology, opportunism, apathy, and pragmatism were also essential reasons in that justify the resentment and opposition to the war. Significantly, not a single member of the federalist party in congress voted for a declaration of the war. Therefore, regions in which contained federalists and had various viewpoints on controversial issues were those in which opposed the war of 1812.
Document 5 contradicts 1,2,3, and 4 in that instead of negatively exposing Britain for having caused the war, document 5 opposes this by showing a positive favor of the war.
Federalists totally opposed the war. Democratic republicans strongly favored the war. Madison belonged to the Democratic Republican Party.
Congressman Hugh Neslon’s letter -written in July, 1812- explained his personal beliefs, demonstrated his reasoning behind voting for the War of 1812. He felt that the war would show America’s ability to unite, writing ‘the people of these states were united, one and indivisible.’ He also wanted to show that the government was actually competent, and to protect the rights of the people. Lastly, he wanted war to ‘repel all foreign aggression’ from the country ― finally ending the attacks on American shipping and sailors which happened many times before the war.
The regions of our country that supported the Reelection of President Madison were the Western and Southern Regions..
The regions that opposed his reelection were the New England region.
