Imagine being such an excellent president that you get the mantle of being the last of a fashion generation, the first of a generation to give concessions to enslaved people, one of the best presidents in history, AND pass on the birth day of the country that he helped create.
Monroe is president with a lot of "The Last" - last Founding Father, last from Virginia dynasty, last president not photographed, last president during First Party System era, last President who ran unopposed, last president wearing powdered wig, knee breeches and tricorne hat ...etc etc
Last Founding father president to die on independence day. Although Madison might have survived until Independence Day he choose not too, and if you ask me, it might of been for the best since Washington didn't die on Independence Day either. If Madison had, Washington would of been the only founding father president not to.
Quite the over achiever that President Monroe! A combat veteran of the Revolutionary War, served directly under General Washington, successful delegate, elected 5th President of the United States, negotiates the Louisiana Purchase, secures Florida from Spain and tries to re-enfranchise former slaves. That's one hell of an impressive list! Bravo Mr. President.
Considering the current state of affairs in many South American countries, I'm not so sure if the Monroe Doctrine was such a good thing after all, lol.
Yes I have a bunch of it written I'm just going to do some light editing and then try to plan how the hell to animate it! Hopefully will start releasing before the end of the year.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains It's not because maneuvering Oregon away from Britain was no different than maneuvering Florida away from Spain. A global empire implies territory on more than one continent.
Does it? All the huge Asian empires were limited to Asia. The Roman empire was at times limited to Europe I believe. I think all that statement meant was that it foreshadowed the imperialism to come.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains I guess my objection is to its setting the US on the path to becoming a "global" empire. The Asian Empires weren't really global empires. The Roman Empire sort of was once it conquered Carthage, but that's debatable. Imo, annexing Hawaii was the harbinger of American global imperialism. Manifest Destiny was inevitable; Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Philippines, etc. weren't.

That one dude in New Hampshire is the Goat for keeping Washington's legacy
That's a great little documentary of President Monroe! Thank you. I learned a lot and really enjoyed it too. 😊
The expression, "The Era of Good Feeling," was coined by a newspaper editor.

President Monroe was quite an alright guy
I'm like "how does this guy know so much about everything?"
He’s a professor
Research
Considering the current state of affairs in many South American countries, I'm not so sure if the Monroe Doctrine was such a good thing after all, lol.
Brilliant video. Thank you so much!
no lie James Monroe is my great uncle
I traced him back
And sadly, he died penniless and that is why he lived in his daughter's home in NY when he died.
We have presidential debates at my school and I’m playing as James Monroe
John Trumbull? Dave!!
NOPE. John Trumbell?? EMANUAL LEUTZE! Like saying Mick Jagger wrote and performed the song Yesterday. Please correct. Great videos!!
Hey, are you still doing the world history series in the future?
Yes I have a bunch of it written I'm just going to do some light editing and then try to plan how the hell to animate it! Hopefully will start releasing before the end of the year.
He did not cross the Deleware with GW.
He went ahead to scout before GW went...
Evidence, please.
Yeah my teacher makes me watch these
Emanual Leutze painted the famous paintings of Washington (and Monroe) crossing the Delaware. Not Trumbull.
2:36 why is the flag weird? Or, am I missing something here?
0:34 The artwork was carved onto the New Jersey State Quarter.
Doesn't the 3/5ths in the Constitution refer to entire people, not slaves, because it specified only a specific group of free people?
amazing video another more likes to your videos.
I found this guy in distant family tree
I was actually born in Liberia, came to the US at age 10. It's a shame that country grew worse over time.

I love how he refers to our extension to Oregon as our first attempt to create a "global American empire."
I think that's an accurate statement.

@@jacobgrandstaff6640 stretching from one side of a continent to another is enough to consider it a global empire. Do you realize how huge America is?
It wasn’t all about slavery. More about taxation.
