The History of the United States II: 1865 to the Present course covers material that is usually taught in the second semester of what is often a two-semester course in United States history.

Following the Civil War, the United States experienced tremendous growth as more states joined the union. Rapid rise in industrialization and materials output soon exceeded that of all other world nations. The U.S. rise to world power status occurred during the decades that followed the 1890s.

US History II
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by the Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” (the Declaration of Independence, 1776) . . . With these words, the Continental Congress set in motion what has become the great American democratic experiment . . . the structured, purposeful establishment of a new nation. 200 years of exploration by many countries and British colonization has been followed by over 240 years of nationhood.
