    The document outlines 3 themes of early US presidential administrations: 1) They established a strong federal government through actions like assuming state debts and creating a navy. 2) They provided for peaceful transitions of power with term limits and resolving disputed elections. 3) They repelled a foreign invasion by winning the War of 1812. It also discusses how the US expanded westward through means like the Louisiana Purchase, annexing Texas, and manifest destiny. Finally, it outlines the Underground Railroad which helped slaves escape to freedom led by conductors like Harriet Tubman and Levi Coffin despite risks of being caught under the Fugitive Slave Law.
