Although the dakota territory was organized in 1861, the population was quite small, and the majority of the population were ind
igenous people. the homestead act of 1862 drew homesteaders, and soon large cattle ranches were proving to americans that farmers could be successful in the northern great plains. transportation became easier between 1871 and 1889, when more than two thousand lines of railroad track were laid across the state. the effect on the population was dramatic. in 1860 the white population of north dakota was 2,576. by 1889, that number had jumped to 191,000. both north dakota and south dakota were able to apply for statehood. according to the passage, which factors contributed to north dakota and south dakota becoming states? choose three answers. the establishment of a major shipping port that improved the local economy the construction of large factories that attracted settlers looking for work the migration of many indigenous people from neighboring states the success of large cattle ranches the expansion of railroad lines the passing of the homestead act
North and South Dakota were granted statehood due of:
huge cattle ranches' success
the extension of railroad tracks
adoption of the Homestead Act
The white population of North and South Dakota increased beginning in the late 1800s because:
The Homestead Act allowed many people to claim land in Dakota from the federal government, which drew people in.
An increase in the number of railroad tracks in the territory meant that people could easily get to the state.
People who claimed land and went into cattle ranching reported good profits, which drew even more people to the Dakotas.
Finally, North and South Dakota were able to seek for statehood as their white population grew as a result of the Homestead Act, additional railroad links, and cattle farming success.
The major way in which border areas of the west were affected by the mixture of people is that a plethora of immigrants from all over the world wanted to expand to the west in order to settle--meaning that people from all backgrounds often fought over land and job opportunities.
