<em>"Evangelical religion</em>" means that americans believe in the message of Gospel and that Jesus is the savior of humanity; "<em>dynamic democracy</em>" means that they trust in the delegation of vote to be represented in Congress o any other institution and that they believe in political parties as a means to select the best candidates to run an election.

This is not an accurate interpretation of U.S. History in these years because of the following reasons:

Between 1800 and 1820, religious conflicts took place between Catholics and Protestants and ended in violence towards the Irish Catholic immigrants. As regards foreign conflicts, USA fought against Great Britain in the War of 1812; it lasted until 1815.
