One historical event in the period 1787 to 1803 that would be used to support Ellis's interpretation is the United States President Thomas Jefferson's historical interpretation about the approval of the Louisiana Purchase.
For historian Joseph J. Ellis, the issue was the way President Thomas Jefferson proceeded to buy the Louisiana territory to the French, knowing that he could have been going beyond his powers as the head of the executive branch. The question for historian Ellis is not that his decision over the territory was right, but the way he implemented that decision that challenged his powers as President. Thomas Jefferson had big hopes that the next step for the American government was in the conquest of the western part of the United States.

One of the very first was more of
a short scene than a film. It was called L’Arrivée d’un
train en gare de La Ciotat ( Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat). The 50- second-
long silent black and white was filmed in 1896 by Auguste and Louis Lumiere.
There is an urban legend that tells of how the film caused a stampede when the audience
thought the train would drive right into them. But the truth was just the
audience and the journalists were just impressed and amazed. They were
pleasantly surprised and was very excited for more film.
The Council of Trent which took place between 1545 and 1563 sought to settle certain doctrinal questions of the Catholic Church as well as to reign in certain practices that had been perceived as corrupt or wrong for the church. Ultimately the council was in response to the growth of protestantism and the Council of Trent denounced the growth of Protestantism as heresy and against the true teachings of the Catholic Church. There were also far reaching decrees that were passed in the areas of discipline and in the morals of the church to control the actions of its leaders and members.
