Scripting Terminal.app

Can anyone give me a quick example of scripting the terminal to open a new window exactly as I would do by pressing cmd-n ?

In general, is there any way of relating Applescript with keystrokes that users normally perform with specific applications? Ultimately, I'd like to create a script that asks the for an application, then create the default window for the application. Generally the shortcut should be cmd-n (excluding the Finder which seems to always have a logic of its own :)), so I thought I'd start off with sending an application the shortcut. I'm thinking maybe this is a bad approach, but I'm still curious on implementing a shortcut emulation in Applescript.
