Beschreibung:

Frederick Jackson Turner presented his "Frontier Thesis" at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893, positing that the continuous existence of the American frontier had shaped the nation's character, promoting individualism, democracy, and economic mobility. Turner argued that the closing of the frontier marked the end of a crucial era in American development, as the 1890 census declared that a coherent frontier line no longer existed, suggesting profound implications for the nation’s future growth and identity.
