National Expansion (1832-1848) American democracy has a lineage of written records that we can trace to show the development of our nation, and how each document builds on those before it to make our foundation of freedom stronger. In this video, we look at the documents conceived in a period during which our national boundaries became more clearly defined. Educators from noted American universities share their insights on: South Carolina's Ordinance of Nullification (1832), The Constitution of the American Anti-Slavery Society (1833), The Webster-Ashburton Treaty (1842), Oregon Treaty (1846) and The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848).
