3, 2, 1, LIFTOFF!

3, 2, 1...

3 things that I learned: 

1. I learned that there was a Canal that helped the trade routes from Asia to Europe
2. Also, that West Florida was originally part of Spain
3. Lastly, I learned that the U.S. isn't exactly Imperialistic when I had thought that it was.

2 things I found interesting: 

1. John Quincy Adams was the person in charge of the merging of Florida
2. Hiram Rhodes Revels was the first black man to ever sit in the U.S. Congress.

1 question I still have: 

1. What's the difference between what America and Europe did to gain land?
