A. Eli Whitney--III. led to an increased demand for labor on cotton plantations.
B. James Watt--I. reduced the amount of coal needed to pump water out of mines.
C. Jethro Tull--II. reduced the number of workers needed to plant crops.

Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin. This machine could quickly pull seeds out of the cotton plant making the processing time for cotton quicker and then cheaper. This increased the demand for cotton and then planters wanted more labor to pick more cotton.

James Watt invented the steam engine which would allow for transportation and engine creation. Engines were used to move machines and creating pumping action in the case of mines.

Jethro Tull invented the seed drill. This agricultural invention allowed farmers to quickly create holes for seed and made planting quicker. Since it became quicker and easier to plant, less workers were needed to plant a field.

Which was one of the causes that led to the Great Sioux War in 1876?

Semmy [17]

The correct answer is D. Gold was discovered in the Black Hills of South Dakota. The federal government forgot the Treaty of Laramie of 1868, and on December 3, 1875, ordered the Sioux to evacuate the territory and decreed a peremptory period (January 31, 1876), after which those who refused to return to the reserves would be considered "hostile" with all the consequences that this term implied. The federal government decided to organize a military expedition to expel the now "hostiles" from the territory that had formally been recognized only eight years ago. In February 1876, preparations began. A long and extensive campaign was foreseen, given the difficulties of the climate and the immensity of the territory that had to be covered. In a first expedition, the general George Crook left the first of March of 1876 towards the valleys of the Yellowstone and the Powder River, with the specific mission to destroy the village of the chief Sioux Caballo Loco, after the Sioux Tribe declared war on the intruders and on the United States, as a consequence of the permanent invasions of the sacred territory of the Black Hills because of the discovery of the existence of gold in 1871.
