Answer:

It ended the labor shortage, as war veterans went to work on the railroad.

Explanation:

The Civil War caused an enormous labor shortage because when it started men that used to work, began to enlist. A report from the Secretary of War in 1862 said that there were 718,512 volunteers in the Union Army. This caused labor shortage, because men that could be working, were fighting.

When the War was over, despite the casualties, men were able to go back to work and projects were developed such as the railroad construction.

How did the concept of mercantilism influence the spread of new foods, plants, and animals around the world
Butoxors [25]

Mercantilism, the country needs a favorable balance of trade so it exports more than it imports goods. The mother country would import manufactured goods to the colony exporting raw materials in exchange. For example the Columbian exchange exported new foods and crops from the Americas such as maize, tobacco, sugar, cotton and potatoes. Horses were brought from Europe and introduced to the Native American people. For example: the Lakota mostly hunted buffalo and this practice was improved with the introduction of horses.

If you could change one part of the story "Guinto sa Makiling", what would it be and why? What
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

I would make sure that Sanang didn't need to disappear from the real world to live with her great love. Although this adds romance and intensity to the story, I find it a little sad to have to leave the family, in the name of love, since there must also be love in the family.

Instead, I would allow Doro's aunt to visit both worlds and her family would go with her to this other universe.

Explanation:

"Guinto sa Makiling" is a Filipino novel that tells the story of Sanang who has to go through extremely difficult challenges to prove her love for her boyfriend Edong, so that both can live together in Shangri-la, united by the love that surrounds them .

Although little known, the novel is one of the most important works of the Philippines, portraying cultural and religious traits with great mastery.
