This class tells a story of the beginnings of a Nation. From the first travelers that sailed overseas looking for specific resources, as well as space to exercise rights that weren't granted in their homeland to fighting for freedom in battles on the new soil. After achieving this newfound freedom, the people of this new nation had to decide what was right and what was wrong, and formed a government that still exists to this day.
