    As U.S. citizens, individuals gain the power to influence national and local governance, taking part in shaping policies from education to national security while undertaking civic duties like paying taxes and jury service.

  • Lesson 6. Colonial Foundations and Indigenous Challenges

Post-war, the fledgling nation grappled with creating a republic, learning from the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation to craft a robust Constitution.
  • Lesson 7. An In-Depth Look at America's Geographical Regions
