AP US History: Important Dates

Meant for review of useful dates in United States history for the AP US History exam. This deck includes cards with the event or presidency on the front and the date and a short description on the back. Precise dates are generally not tested on the APUSH exam, so this is really meant more to give you the ability to contextualize dates with the events and presidencies surrounding them. I generally count an answer as correct if I can remember the approximate decade, rather than making myself memorize the exact starting and ending dates. Please let me know if there are errors in the deck or important events that I forgot to put in.
