 Compelling Questions

After reviewing the information in the module, return to these essential questions:

  1. Did governments (USA and NC) work for the people or do we work for the governments?

  2. What contributed to the rise and development of democracy in our state in the 19th century?

  3. Is it accurate to refer to North Carolina as the Rip Van Winkle State during this period?
