What are some good/interesting research paper topics that can be from 1492-1865.Any ideas would be very well appreciated.

Answer 1

Oh, my! What interests YOU?

Wars?
Battles?
People?
Government?
Explorations?
Slavery?
Literature?
Art?
Growth of the U.S.?
Religion?

Answer 2

Something that really stood out between those years. Probably Explorations or slavery

Answer 3

OK. You've now limited your topics. But they are very broad topics.

I suggest you read a lot about these two topics and decide on your own focus and what you want to learn about either explorations or slavery.

Answer 4

Can you lead me into a more specific topic that isn't to broad. When I'm writing do I just pick one of those years between that time frame. I need something that I'm going to be able to break into like sub categories so I can reach the page length that is required.

Answer 5

What exactly are your teacher's instructions about this research paper? What grade are you in?

Answer 6

There wasn't really no instructions. They just gave us a time era 1492-1865 use MLA, 5 refrences one must be primary it's my first year in college. Then we have to do an outline for it.

Answer 7

Ohh -- the outline is one page -- not the whole paper!

How about researching slave rebellions in the U.S.?

Answer 8

The outline is sepearate from the entire paper. We have to turn the outline in before the paper. I'm looking into that site that you gave me right now.
