The answer is: Utah

The first Americans to settle permanently in the Utah region were the Mormons. Mormons are members of a religious group called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This Church had been instituted in 1830, near Fayette, New York, by Joseph Smith. After his murder in 1844, Brigham Young became the leader of most Mormons. Because of the great religious persecution they suffered, Mormons began to move from one region to another seeking freedom and religious tolerance, passing through Ohio, Illinois and Missouri. However, wherever they went there was religious persecution. In 1846, Young decided to make an expedition to the North-West North American, and to look for an isolated and little or not inhabited region, where the group could enjoy religious tolerance. In 1847, Young and his expedition arrived at the Great Salt Lake, where they settled. A year later, in 1848, by the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, the United States annexed Utah, after its victory over Mexico during the US intervention in Mexico.

Young quickly planned communities for all his followers. The news of the success of the settlement in the region caused thousands of people -mainly Mormons- to settle in the region of the Great Salt Lake and its estuaries, especially north of the current state, where many settled in valleys and began to irrigate these valleys , promoting the practice of agriculture.

What were the effects of the berlin airlift
ladessa [460]

Answer:

After 15 months and more than 250,000 flights, the Berlin Airlift officially comes to an end. The airlift was one of the greatest logistical feats in modern history and was one of the crucial events of the early Cold War.In June 1948, the Soviet Union suddenly blocked all ground traffic into West Berlin, which was located entirely within the Russian zone of occupation in Germany. It was an obvious effort to force the United States, Great Britain, and France (the other occupying powers in Germany) to accept Soviet demands concerning the postwar fate of Germany. As a result of the Soviet blockade, the people of West Berlin were left without food, clothing, or medical supplies. Some U.S. officials pushed for an aggressive response to the Soviet provocation, but cooler heads prevailed and a plan for an airlift of supplies to West Berlin was developed. It was a daunting task: supplying the daily wants and needs of so many civilians would require tons of food and other goods each and every day. On June 26, 1948, the Berlin Airlift began with U.S. pilots and planes carrying the lion’s share of the burden. During the next 15 months, 277,264 aircraft landed in West Berlin bringing over 2 million tons of supplies. On September 30, 1949, the last plane–an American C-54–landed in Berlin and unloaded over two tons of coal. Even though the Soviet blockade officially ended in May 1949, it took several more months for the West Berlin economy to recover and the necessary stockpiles of food, medicine, and fuel to be replenished.
