     The differences between the declaration of independence and the declaration of sentiments are very minor. These two declarations are declaring the rights of those who deserve it. The declaration of independence was declaring our independence against Britian in 1776. It said that all men are created equal and have natural rights that should be pursued. The declaration of sentiments was writin  by the women of America saying that we should have the same rights as men because we were also created equal and that god created us from the garden of Adam and Eve and that we are the same.

     Julius Caesar was king of Rome at one point befor he was murdered by senaters. I can compare him and andrew jackson in manny ways. They were both always looking for a battle or a new fight to start. This caused many people to dislike and even hate them both. They were also very crule when it came to when they were in charge. This caused the ,urder or caesar and the long lonely life for jackson.
     I think that both men werevery cruel when they were in charge. Jackson caused thiusands of native americans to go down the trail of tears killing many from disease and conditions. Caesar was always at war with someone. He even caused a war with Brutus, one of his trusted friends. Thst just tells you that you could trust neither of them.

     I think the story of amdrew jackson was actually pretty sad. I mean yes he became presedent, most people only dream of becoming that, but his life was full of sadness and death. His father died when his morher was still pregnant with him amd his mother and brothers died by the time he was 13. He was left all alone in the world as a boy having to fend for himself. When he got older he met a woman who was already married but the teo loved eachother very much. She left her husband and ran away with jackson to start a new life with him. Eventually her husband filed for devorce because of her adultry. After the two were married they learned that they were unable to have children. When he became presedent people learned of her adultry and thought of her very differently. It even led to her killing herself because people basically shunned her. Jackson blamed the british for the death of every loved one he ever had.

      Yesterday we learned about the market revolution and the difference between the north and south around the time of the civil war. We also learned about slavery and property owners. The plantation owners would use the slaves they "owened" to do their field work for them for free. They treated them as though they were property and saw them as items not as people.
     I think that the market revolution was a good thing for economy but not such a good thing for workers and slaves. The market revolution was good because it helped improve our economy by making more factories. It was bad for the slaves and workers because slaves were forced against their will to do the work without pay and the workers they hired were mostly getting laid off because they could just have slaves to it for free or they had new factory machines to do their jobs for them.

     The market revolution was basically the rise of immigration in the north and the use of factories rather than manual work. People began to use machinery for their work rather than hire workers because the job would get done more efficiently and wouldnt take as long as manual work.
     I think that the market revolution was a good thing for factory owners but not such a good thing for the workers.the rise of machinery ment that there was less of a need for workers leaving more and more people out of work but the rise of industry was well needed for more manufacturing.
