How specific to interesting things happening when he was president does it need to be? Like, decisions he's made? Things that just happened in the US... world? Does it necessarily have to be associated with him (like not necessarily an result because of him, ex: A volcano erupted?)?

Brief summary of each year with main events.



http://vlib.iue.it/history/USA/ERAS/20TH/1900s.html

Gives a good outline of what happened each year (under Events of 190? from Wikipedia)

You can browse it and find some pretty interesting facts. I thought this tidbit was just great: "Speeding - The element that made motoring sport was its dangerous speeds. By 1906, 15 states had speed limits of 20 miles per hour. Whooo!"



Happy hunting! Let me know if you need something even more specific to Teddy Roosevelt.

I think I think I think...but I am not sure. I don't know my history very well



I don't know if it is any of those sites but the teddy bear started because of him.



He was hunting and he couldn't shot any bears so they tied one to a tree and brought him to shoot it but he wouldn't so some company made a bear and called it teddy(I think that was his nickname).



The story was somewhat like that. I don't remember it to well I am sure you could find the story in more detail else where.
