RafaI don't know what, but I know that when the US was a small country, it was because the French, British and Mexicans didn't want to give up their area. The U.S. president Thomas Jefferson sent Captain Meriwether Lewis and his assisstant William Clark set off through the French and Mexican areas and found Oregon and Washington with Sacagawea of the Shoshone tribe. There, the US knew that was an area not taken by the British, French or Mexican. Then, there was the Lousiana Purchase, and the Americans purchased land from the Mexican or French and owned down by Louisiana. This is how the U.S. grew, plus Lewis and Clark's 2-year adventure to the west coast help America grow. Since 1806, the US bought more territory. That pushed the Spanish down, and made Mexico, and pushed the French up, and then made French-Canadians, who live in Quebec nowadays. This is how the US grew.
Well the two main political leaders that i know of are Jefferson and Hamilton. Hamilton was a federalist and he had different plans for shaping the economy and during the French Revolution he thought they should suck up to the English rather than the french because he thought the french had no chance in winning the war. Jefferson on the other hand was republican and also had different plans for economic growth he belived that America should focus more on agricultural products rather than industrial. Also during the french revolution he thought American should give France special treatment since the English treated the colonists inferior to them.
i hope this helps i am currently in U.S. history Ap and this is all i know about that
The division was between the federalists and the anti-federalists, the federalists believed in a strong central government; and would give them power over the individual states, and the anti-federalists believed in a focus on the states, and allowing them to run almost completely independent of the central government.

Why was slavery important to the South?
Cheap free labor was the only way of producing cotton - and lots of it. Following the invention of the cotton gin, cotton become "king" in the South, comprising a majority of its exports. Without slavery, cotton could not be harvested, and the large plantation holders would surely be in ruins. Though the owners of huge plantations did not amass to a majority in the South, they were the political leaders and drove the economy. For the economic and political success of both the South and the plantation owners, the institution of slavery had to continue.
