Diary Entry #7

                                 Dear Diary,

             It's me, Chayton today on December 4, 1819 in Pennyslvania today I might end up dying because of a disease that I caught and so this will be the last time I will be writing in my diary, but today when I was coming back from work I was thinking of my life that I had been living for like 343 years and during all those years I had experience a lot of things like when Christopher Columbus took some of my people away to somewhere else and when this country struggle for rights for women, slaves, and us Indians and also when this counrty had problems with France and when the Anti-Federalists demanded the Federalists to add the Bill of Rights to the Constitution. And well since I won't live long I want to make a prediction of 20 years from now how would the land in 2019 will look like in this country will be filled with people from different countries and they will all have rights in this country.

Diary Entry #6

Dear Diary,

             It's me, Chayton today in 1819 when I was walking back from work I was thinking that this country only started with 13 states or the 13 colonies. These 13 states are Georgia, Maryland, Delaware, Rhode Island, Virginia, New York, Connecticut, North Carolina, South Carolina, New Jersey, New Hampshire,  Massachusetts, and our state Pennsylvania. And also that this country now has 21 states because of 8 new states that were added and these new states are Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. And I saw on a newspaper that the Anti-Federalists had demands in order to give their support to the Constitution and their demand was that they add the Bill of Rights to the Constitution to show the rights that people have. And so the our president James Monroe was to accept their demand and added the Bill of Rights into the Constitution.

Diary Entry #5

            Dear Diary,

 

 It's me, Chayton today in 1798 in Philadelphia I was coming back from work when I read on a newspaper that the U.S.government had two problems and now had to resolve these conflicts. One of the problems was that U.S. does not want to have war with France, because they did not want this country to be in danger of being taken over by France so he found the solution by sending three men to settle things with Talleyrand, but that he sent three men and that Adam's calls them the "X,Y, and Z". That the French demanded a $250,000 bribe as payment for seeing Talleyrand. And that they called this insult the XYZ Affair and made Americans feel Anti-French from this insult. And President Adams did not want damage his reputation as President so he agreed to pay, but the federalist were against his idea and wanted a full-scale war against France. After that they had another problem but this time it was in our country and it's because of the Federalist that put four measures that became to known as the Alien and Sedition Acts. The first three measures known as the Alien Act that it raised the residence requirement for American citizenship from 5 years to 14 years and allowed the president to deport or jail any alien considered undesirable. The fourth measure is known as the Sedition Act that sets fines and jail terms for anyone trying to hinder the operation of the government or expressing false statements against the government.
