The federal government supported the interests of big businesses over the interests of labor unions.

Unions became popular during the Gilded Age in the US during an industrial boom. The government supported the owners of business during this period and practiced free market capitalism.

During the Gilded Age, the government took a policy of free-market or laissez-faire capitalism. This means the government did not interfere or create regulation of the economic system. They tended to support the practices of corporations because they were wealthy and had power. Unions demanded higher wages, government regulation, and better working conditions. All of these demands went against the thinking of the time and would have cost the government money and the favor of the powerful in the country.

The __ spread troughout southern Africa below the equator during the classical era. A. Assyrian Empire
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

B. Bantu Peoples

Explanation:

During the classical era, the Bantu peoples started to migrate from their homeland in the eastern part of Western Africa. The growing population needed more resources, and the Bantu tribes started to move towards areas that provided more resources, both for them and for raising cattle. Since on the north it was the Sahel and Sahara, the Bantu peoples moved south, below the equator. This part of Africa was largely dominated by savanna, which had an abundance of animals for hunting, as well as vast grasslands for the cattle to graze. Little by little, the Bantu peoples were taking over more and more territory, becoming gradually the largest ethnic group in Africa, and managing to reach the southernmost and easternmost coastlines of the continent.
