So I have my major test coming up to pass my grade for the Exam on US HISTORY 2017 STAAR. I would want to bring back some old memories of History since most of you on this website have been done with school, or is either already in Uni. Anyways, mind asking me some questions, or giving me specific Key Words to answer them here? I just want to get some few notes going down see if I got this. I read AP US History notes front to back multiple times even though I'm not AP, hopefully it can help out. Let the questions spill out or keywords!
People don't realize, you know, the Civil War, if you think about it, why?

The question had no answer, as it was made by Trump, but here's a real question: Why did the U.S. enter WWII? What was the name of the submarine that was sunk in WWI? What was the name of the secret telegram sent out by Germany that was prevented from getting to Mexico? How many atomic bombs were dropped on Japan? What was the Civil War fought over? Who won the War of 1812? Who died first: JFK or MLK? What famous attack on the U.S. caused the country to launch the USA Patriot Act? What happened to Japanese-Americans during WWII? Who found America (two answers...think earlier than 1492, but later than Native Americans)? Who is the Americas named after? How many terms did FDR serve as president? What president is the teddy bear named after? What president served the shortest term? How many presidents have been removed from office? What was the period of decades after the Civil War, where the south was being rebuilt, and blacks faced new Jim Crow laws, called? Who is the senator that accused many citizens of being communists or spies? What was this method of accusation later called? Where did the witch trials happen? What were the three ships Columbus sailed? Name at least three Native American tribes. Who did we buy Alaska from? Who gave us Louisiana? What was the colony of Georgia formed for (two answers)? Who gave us the Statue of Liberty?
