Advanced Placement FRQs and DBQs:
1973 Why did the institution of slavery command the loyalty of the vast
majority of antebellum Southern whites despite the fact that only a small
percentage of them owned slaves?
1974 Account for the emergence of utopian communities from the mid-1820s
through the 1840s, and evaluate their success or failure.
1979 “American social reform movements from 1820-1860 were characterized
by unyielding perfectionism, impatience with compromise and distrust
of established social institutions. These qualities explain the degree of
success or failure of these movements in achieving their objectives.”
Discuss with reference to both antislavery and on other reform
movement of the period 1820-1860.
1980 “In the period 1815 to 1860, improvements in transportation and
increased inter-regional trade should have united Americans, but
instead produced sectional division and finally, disunion.” Discuss with
reference to the impact of improved transportation and increased interregional trade on the Northeast, the South and the West.
1993 In what ways did the early nineteenth-century reform movements for
abolition and women’s rights illustrate both the strengths and the
weaknesses of democracy in the early American republic?
1994 Analyze the ways in which TWO of the following influenced the
development of American society.
Puritanism during the seventeenth century
The Great Awakening during the eighteenth century
The Second Great Awakening during the nineteenth century
1995 Analyze the ways in which supporters of slavery in the nineteenth
century used legal, religious, and economic arguments to defend the
institution of slavery.
1996 Analyze the extent to which TWO of the following influenced the
development of democracy between 1820 and 1840.
Jacksonian economic policy
Changes in electoral politics
Second Great Awakening
Westward movement
