Transcript

00:00

Thank you We sneak in And his george shmoop du

00:05

jour Brought to you by the pork and beans war

00:08

You try spending that much time in a sealed can

00:10

with someone without getting a little peeved I check out

00:14

the excerpt right here Texas is now ours All right

00:17

And then you know where the written convention on dandelions

00:19

and a ram of union republican future in her star

00:22

and stripes of barlow A baronet annexation All right here's

00:26

our question the development described in the excerpt has the

00:29

most in common with which of the following and hear

00:32

your potential answers are really primitive Blame revolution here All

00:38

right Well the excerpt describes america gobbling up a big

00:41

chunk of new land almost as voraciously is Texans gobble

00:44

up barbecue So which of these choices is most similar

00:48

to that The land gobbling not barbecue b is talking

00:53

about the aru stock war a tiff the us had

00:56

with the brits about the border between maine and the

01:00

british colony of new brunswick We can give this option

01:03

that boot unlike the annexation of texas the resolution of

01:07

this issue didn't result in america gaining any huge chunks

01:10

Of new land and weird fact this dispute is also

01:14

sometimes called the pork and beans war Why Well because

01:18

conflict was sparked by dueling lumber companies and lumberjacks apparently

01:22

ate a lot of pork and beans What way told

01:25

you it'd be a weird fact All right well choice

01:27

dee is also about a conflict with britain but this

01:29

one won't just isn't true The oregon territory wasn't lost

01:34

to the english It was jointly occupied by the two

01:36

nations until the treaty of eighteen eighteen divided up and

01:40

even if he had happened it would be wrong because

01:42

we're looking for another massive land grab by america not

01:45

a loss that means they can't be right either Relinquishing

01:50

land means losing it not gaining it just like relinquishing

01:54

the last piece of bbq means losing it but you

01:57

do gain a sense of extreme sorrow because well who

01:59

won it's a relinquished barbecue anyway One part of the

02:04

us giving land to another part of the u s

02:06

doesn't have much to do with all of the us

02:08

gaining new land texas surrender to their claim to the

02:11

new mexico territory was an attempt tow intentions over slavery

02:15

In the compromise of eighteen fifty just like our surrender

02:18

of the barbecue was an attempt to end tensions around

02:20

the family dinner table And we're still regretting it So

02:24

option c finally gets it right In many ways the

02:26

louisiana purchase was the beginning of america gobbling up a

02:29

cz many new territories across the continent as possible It

02:33

was the french appetizer in the multiple course meal of

02:35

land acquisition followed of course by papaya and tacos which

02:39

we bet they didn't surrender To make family dinner time

02:42

Less stressful You take our barbecue very seriously around these 00:02:45.345 --> [endTime] parts Hello
