indicate the correct answer to each of the questions (from 26 to 30).
Alexander Hamilton was born on January 11, 1755 or 1757 in the West Indies. Due to his
mother’s lack of marital status, Hamilton was not seen as a legitimate child and was thus denied access to
church schools. When his mother died he was adopted by a merchant in Nevis, where he worked as a
clerk. During his time in Nevis, Hamilton continued to write; one of his essays impressed the community
leaders so much that they worked together and collected funds to send Hamilton to the colonies.
Hamilton served in the revolutionary war, during which time he worked his way through battles
and earned himself a place aiding General Washington. After the war, Hamilton was elected into the
Congress of the Confederation. He was dissatisfied with the decentralized government that was set up
and the inability to raise money from the states to pay the soldiers.
Hamilton was involved in the Constitution Convention but did not fully agree with the document;
despite his disagreements, he promoted the document because he believed it was a vast improvement
over the Articles of Confederation. He pushed the ratification of the Constitution, teaming up with John
Jay and James Madison to write the Federalist papers, which were often cited when pushing for the
Constitution’s ratification.
Alexander Hamilton was appointed as the country’s first Secretary of The Treasury on September
11, 1789. During his time as Secretary of the Treasury Hamilton helped write economic policies, develop
the funding of state debts, establish the national bank, create a national currency, a system of tariffs, and a
peaceful trade relationship with Britain. After his time in politics finished, Alexander Hamilton went back
to New York to practice law. He died in a duel with Aaron Burr in Weehawken, New Jersey on July 12,
1804.
