Early 1800's Democracy

         This week we learned about democracy in the 1800's. We analyzed a painting, two voting charts and a document about the Dorr War to answer the question. How should we define democracy? And How Democratic was the US in the early 1800's. In a group we made a poster with each source on it, under each source was a brief summary about how it demonstrates democracy. Overall, in the early 1800's, the United States was pretty democratic, although their ways vary from ours slightly.
