Preface
Each of the half-hour video episodes is accompanied by a complementary lesson containing the
following features to help you master your study of
American history:
The Unfinished Nation addresses America’s history
to Reconstruction (1877). It begins with the
migration of the earliest inhabitants, traces the
arrival of explorers seeking riches and land for
themselves and their homelands, and details the
flight of the colonists and later immigrants to the
new land in search of freedom and opportunity.
From the Lost Colony to the Oregon Trail; from
the Erie canal to the assembly line; from the slave
trade to emancipation, the events and personalities
that shaped the young nation are put into political,
social, and cultural context. Re-enactments, readings from historical texts, interviews with leading
scholars, and visits to significant locales bring history to life in the 26 episodes that are the first
semester of The Unfinished Nation.
This guide is one part of the total package
available to you when you embark upon the 26
half-hour videos that make up the first part (to
1877) of The Unfinished Nation. These video episodes, in conjunction with the guidance of your
campus instructor, are closely integrated with Alan
Brinkley’s texts, American History: A Survey, Volume I, and The Unfinished Nation: A Concise History of the American People, Volume I. These texts
provide a comprehensive account of the American
past. The newest editions of these books place
American history into a global context, making
connections for life in an ever-expanding world. An
interactive web component enhances independent
learning.

Lesson 15
Legacy of an Autocratic Ruler
worked to open Indian lands for settlement. His
policies, though, had sometimes tragic human and
economic effects. The forced removal of Indians
from the South along the Trail of Tears left a terrible legacy. His dispute with the Bank of the
United States sent the nation into economic turmoil. By the end of his second term in office, Jackson’s policies along with his heavy handed political
methods led to the rise of a new political party, a
party that would itself suffer from internal dissension and bring about distinct changes to the Democratic Party.
In the 1820s white Americans continued to
seek new lands in the West to establish farms and
plantations. Many tribes had already moved west of
the Mississippi River after signing relocation treaties with the federal government or losing their
lands in battle. In the South, however, large tribes
with advanced societies remained. The “Five Civilized Tribes” held large tracts of valuable land
desired by settlers who now surrounded Indian
claims. Since whites had little desire to live side by
side with the Native Americans, opening these
areas meant the removal of the tribes. States had
attempted to acquire Indian lands with little success, but with a frontiersman now in the White
House they had a valuable ally. Andrew Jackson
earned his fame conducting military campaigns
against the Indians in the Southeast, and as president he continued his efforts to open Indian lands
to white settlement. With funding from Congress,
the United States government negotiated treaties
with the tribes of the South and forced them to
relocate to Indian Territory along the Trail of

Ruler”
Overview
Andrew Jackson took office pledging to provide
white males of all classes equal opportunity for
political and economic success, although as a Tennessean he showed partiality to the rising businessmen of the South and West. He assaulted what he
considered centers of privilege in the East, and
75

Tears. Despite the sometimes fierce resistance
offered by certain tribes, as the 1830s came to a
close few Indian tribes remained in the East.
For Andrew Jackson, few institutions better
represented aristocratic power and privilege than
did the Bank of the United States. Many of his supporters in the South and West disliked the Bank,
and Jackson had announced his intention not to
renew the Bank’s charter when it expired in 1836.
Knowing the popularity of the Bank in certain circles, Jackson’s political opponents convinced the
manager of the Bank to apply for renewal in 1832
so they could turn the Bank into a major issue in
the 1832 presidential campaign. After Jackson
vetoed the bill reauthorizing the Bank and then
easily won reelection, he decided to destroy the
Bank he despised so much. When Jackson ordered
his secretary of the treasury to place government
deposits in state Banks, the Bank responded by
tightening credit and an economic recession followed. Soon after Jackson’s successor, Martin Van
Buren, took office, poor Banking practices and the
1836 “specie circular” combined to create the
Panic of 1837 and subsequent five-year economic
depression.
Opposition to Jackson and his political tactics,
which some considered to be tyrannical, led to the
rise of the Whig party and the second party system.
Unable to settle on a single candidate for president
in 1836, the Whigs lost to the Democratic candidate, but by 1840 they had rallied behind the
former governor of Indiana Territory, William
Henry Harrison. Even though they represented
much of the American economic and political elite,
Whigs claimed it was they, not the Democrats, who
best represented the interests of the common man.
With the country in the midst of an economic
depression that many blamed on the Democrats,
Harrison defeated the incumbent Van Buren. The
Whigs, however, found themselves unable to enact
much of their economic and political program.
Only a month after taking office Harrison died,
leaving the office to John Tyler, a former Democrat
with only weak ties to the Whig party. Disputes
between Tyler and congressional Whigs led to
Tyler’s eventual expulsion from the party and a
Democratic takeover of the cabinet. By the time
Tyler left office in 1845, the Democratic Party –
the common man’s party – had an aristocratic wing
of its own.

Text Focus Points
These text focus points are the main ideas presented in this section of the textbook. Read these
points carefully before reading the text. You may
want to take notes for future reference and study.
✓ Andrew Jackson believed all Indian tribes living
in the eastern United States should be moved
west of the Mississippi River to make way for
white settlement. By the 1830s many Americans
had come to view Indians as “savages” despite
the fact that some tribes, particularly in the
South, had incorporated many aspects of white
culture into their own societies. Some tribes
resisted relocation through armed confrontation
while others turned to the courts. Still, by the
late 1830s the tribes of the South that had been
relocated to Indian Territory marched along the
Trail of Tears.
✓ For Jackson, the Bank of the United States represented a center of powerful government and
aristocratic privilege. When Congress acted to
re-charter the institution in 1832, Jackson
vetoed the bill and turned the Bank controversy
into a successful campaign issue. By the end of
his second term, however, Jackson’s war with the
Bank was bringing instability to the American
economy.
✓ By the mid-1830s a new political party emerged
in opposition to what many viewed as Jackson’s
tyrannical policies. Despite a loss in 1836, the
Whigs were able to win the presidency in 1840
blaming the economic depression on Democrats
and employing unconventional campaign strategies. Even with a Whig in the White House,
however, Congressional Whigs were never able
to institute their economic programs. Soon the
Whig party was itself starting to split, and a new
political alignment began to emerge.

Video Focus Points
These video focus points are designed to help you
understand and get the most out of the video for
this section. Read these points carefully before
watching the video. You may want to take notes
for future reference and study.
✓ Andrew Jackson entered politics with a reputation as a fierce Indian fighter who had forced
many tribes to cede their lands to the United
States. As president, Jackson continued his campaign to move eastern tribes west of the Mississippi River, asking Congress to pass an Indian
Removal Act, which provided funds to negotiate
land treaties. Despite the advanced civilizations
built by some tribes and Supreme Court decisions in their favor, the pressure applied by Jackson and state governments forced Cherokees and
other tribes to sell their lands and relocate to
Indian Territory in present-day Oklahoma.
✓ In 1832 the Bank of the United States asked
Congress to renew its charter, which was set to
expire in 1836. When the legislation extending
the life of the Bank crossed Jackson’s desk, he
vetoed the bill and denounced the Bank as a tool
of the elite. Since Jackson had no authority to
close the Bank outright, he decided to eliminate
the Bank through other means.
✓ Opposition to Jackson and his policies led to formation of a new political party, the Whigs. The
Whigs, however, were unable to unite behind a
single candidate for president in 1836, and Jackson’s handpicked successor, Martin Van Buren,
won the office easily. The Panic of 1837 and
subsequent economic depression led Democrats
and Whigs to blame each other for the crisis, and
crippled Van Buren politically throughout his
term of office.
✓ In 1840 the Whigs united behind William Henry
Harrison, and won the election by portraying
themselves as the true supporters of American
democracy. Harrison, however, died soon after
taking office, leaving the presidency in the hands
of John Tyler, a Whig with strong Democratic
roots. When Tyler vetoed much of the Whig
economic program, Congressional Whigs
expelled him from the party, leading to the
emergence of a new political alliance.

L ESSON 15: L EGACY OF AN A UTOCRATIC R ULER
Essay – These questions are designed to help you
think about all you have learned. Consider them
carefully and then write your responses.
16. During his tenure as president, Andrew Jackson pursued an aggressive program to remove
Indians from states and territories in the east
to less desirable lands west of the Mississippi
River. How did whites’ attitudes towards
Indian tribes change during the early years of
the nineteenth century? What types of societies
had the Five Civilized Tribes built? How did
Jackson propose to move Indian tribes west of
the Mississippi River, and how did these tribes
resist?
17. One of the notable aspects of the Jackson presidency was his war with the Bank of the
79
United States. What was Jackson’s quarrel
with the Bank? How did the Bank become an
issue in the campaign of 1832? Through what
means did Jackson seek to destroy the Bank,
and how did the Bank war affect the American
economy?
18. Opposition to Andrew Jackson and his policies
led to the rise of a new political party, the
Whigs. Who were some of the leaders of the
Whig party? What groups of Americans were
most likely to support the Whigs, and what
groups followed the Democrats? What were
some of the reasons the Whigs lost the election
of 1836, and what tactics did they employ to
win the election of 1840? What divisions
began to appear within the Whig party during
the presidency of John Tyler?
