The Famous Star Spangled Banner By Francis Scott Key

The speaker of “Let us Continue,” Lyndon Baines Johnson very effectively portrayed his main idea with his intended purpose. The main purpose of this speech is that Johnson believes America should keep moving forward and stay strong to make new advancements in our country. The speaker is very passionate about what he is speaking on and he is motivated to continue the work that John F. Kennedy started. The speaker says, “No words are strong enough to express our determination to continue the forward thrust of America that he began.”

Dinner Debate: The War of 1812 Opening Statement We are having problems with the British which is causing us to suffer as a country. This is not fair. We, as Americans, believe in fairness, and we stand together, united, when the times get rough. The British should pay for their actions, but this is not the right time, we must be prepared first.

The War Of 1812 Authors: Kathlyn gay , Martin gay Book report by: Jacob Blackburn The war of 1812 , also know as the French and Indian war , was one of the first wars that America took place in. The war of 1812 had around 245,000 men in the British army at the beginning of the war, and at the end , roughly 9,000 of those men were killed in the heat of battle. This battle has most likely one of the most famous moments in American history , and that moment would be the birth of our national anthem , the star spangled banner.

and then they had tried to also attack baltimore but the united states had already knew so they did not let them.but also during the year of 1814 francis scott key had written the star spangled banner. Now the war of 1812 was started because of great britain sailors would take and kidnap american sailors to make them serve in the great britain's military. So once the united states had found

Now here is some evidence on the 1812 war: The National Anthem was made in it, There was a really bad storm, The war was really long, A lot of stuff happened in it, A big battle happened in New Orleans, The British burnt down the White House, and Francis Scott Key created the National Anthem. Those are the evidence I have for reason one. Reason two is that the National Anthem was created in the forgotten war of 1812. I’m also going to name evidence for the reason to about why it should be in the history books: Francis Scott Key created the National Anthem, Francis Scott Key wrote the National Anthem after the war, Francis Scott Key got inspiration by seeing the American Flag, British gave up on trying to destroy the fort, Francis Scott Key died on January 11, 1843, He was born on August 1, 1779, and people referred the National Anthem as The Star Spangled Banner.

America has gone through many conflicts that have shaped our country, both good and bad ways. The War of 1812 was a minor engagement that still had an important effect on American society. This was a war fought between the United States and Great Britain over British violations of U.S. naval rights. Throughout time Native Americans joined alongside British forces because of the way the US mistreated them and so they wanted justice for their homelands. Manifest Destiny played a huge role in this conflict with the Native Americans as well, which is another reason why this war was fought.

However, the war of 1812 was a victory for the American

The War of 1812 has been referred to as a victorious “Second War for Independence,” and used to define Canadian identity, but the British only remember 1812 as the year Napoleon marched to Moscow. This is not surprising. In British eyes, the conflict with America was an annoying sideshow. The Americans had stabbed them in the back while they, the British, were busy fighting a total war against the French Empire, directed by their most inveterate enemy. For a nation fighting Napoleon Bonaparte, James Madison was an annoying irrelevance.

Paper The United States had complete right, backed by justifiable reasons for the War of 1812. Due to trade restrictions, the impressment of Us merchant sailors, and British supporting the Native American Tribes against Americans. With positive outcomes for America such as “The Star Spangled Banner,” and the “Era of Good Feelings.” It led to it becoming a massive turning point in the United States army, with the change from a Revolutionary style militias to a more professional fighting force.

In my opinion The War of 1812 is often called the “Forgotten War” because of the issues that we’re faced during it. Also in my opinion the United States government would have rather forgotten this war because it was a shameful time for the government as a whole. Another thing about the “Forgotten War” is that it was extremely costly for the United States Government because “the British burnt down the White House, the Capitol, and other government buildings” (Shultz 2010). Yet, the War of 1812 or the “Forgotten War” was not only a shameful or negative part of history it also had a few good things that came from the War.

“With liberty and justice for all” is undoubtedly one of the most commonly spoken phrases in America. Unfortunately, when most Americans speak this phrase, the meaning does not carry through. This closing line from The Pledge of Allegiance, written by Francis Bellamy, aims to show how society during the 1900s needed to be inspired and more actively patriotic (Deppner). With this pledge Bellamy intended to instill the American citizens with a sense of pride and satisfaction in their country.

2,000 highly trained British soldiers died compared to only about 13 American soldiers. At this time the British were the military force but they made so many mistakes it was hard to believe, one example is that they forgot to bring ladders to climb up the ramparts. The history book publisher wants to take out The War of 1812 just so we can save money. The publisher doesn't think The War of 1812 is necessary to learn because it wasn't important and it didn't help shape our future. We should keep The War of 1812 in our textbooks because it is a show of respect for those who had fallen, if we don't keep the war in it will almost be like all the American soldiers did was for nothing because nobody will know how we got where we are today

The war was in a stalemate with both sides counting the losses. The 1812 war placidly favored the Americans. The British forces and government no longer had the reasons of interfering with trade in America as they were defeated by the French forces. The Indians who were the greatest stumbling block to the white settlement and expansion were not a threat anymore. Becoming a honorable and pride filled moment for America, the war caused us to gain our national anthem, the Star-Spangled Banner, and almost lose our capital: Washington, D.C to the British due to a dire.

The Star - Spangled Banner is an anthem that is known by almost every American. Although most everyone is familiar with the anthem, not many people are familiar with the life of the man who wrote it. By choosing to write about Francis Scott Key, it is my goals to understand his life and dive more deeply into what he may have inspired him the night that he composed the anthem that almost all Americans have come to respect. This book was fairly easy to find, I was able to find it using the green county library online catalogs. What so proudly we hail was the only biography to be written about Francis Scott key in almost 75 years, so I did not have a lot of options when it came to picking out a book to read.

The Star Spangled Banner in its entirety suggest that Americans are courageous and powerful. In the song Francis Scott Key alludes to the courage Americans had as they fought in the war. For example one of the lines of The Star Spangled Banner was “O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?” (Key). He suggest that America is the home of the brave which is as clear as it can get.
