3 0

Home stead act had both negative and positive impacts in the economic and population growth.

Explanation

The government offered free lands to many american households that they were happy that they became the owner of the lands. There were many negative and positive impacts. Positive impacts were that people started to use the land for agricultural purposes. It paved way for them to learn new techniques in the field of growing crops and new resources such as gold, silver , coal and oils were found which created mining employment. industrialization arose and the invention of railroads enabled the rise of towns and cities. economy slowly developed.

Negative impacts were manifest destiny allowed people to move to unknown and far off lands. some lands which were given as grants from the government were not fertile and the geographic climate was too dry which was not feasible for growing crops. The climate was so  harsh that many died. Many had to abandon their lands and came to the same place in the east.

Answer:  Choice C.

They worried that Lincoln would try to end slavery in the United States.

==========================================================

Explanation:

The issue of slavery was debated and fought over for many years before the election of 1860. It was only until Lincoln became president that sparked the southern states to secede, which led to the Civil War. Proof of this is found in the many Declaration of Secession documents produced by each state that left the union. This is basically a document explaining why they left the United States to form the Confederate States of America (CSA) aka the Confederacy.

In modern times, some people mistakenly claim that the Civil War wasn't over slavery but rather states' rights. This is simply false. The documents I mentioned prove that slavery was the core issue. More proof is the various states having issues with the fugitive slave act, in that the northern states didn't really adhere to the law to the level of the southern states' liking. I guess you could argue that states' rights were involved, but specifically the south fought to have the right to own slaves. In short, it's all about getting the correct context. Expanding that context, simply look at the decades preceding the war and notice all of the tension involving whether a new state was a free state vs a slave state.
