The correct answers are A) new states were added to the union, C) population grew in the territories, and d) the cattle-ranching industry grew.

<em>According to the passage, the effects of the Homestead Act were: new states were added to the union, population grew in the territories, and the cattle-ranching industry grew. </em>

The passage clearly states that The Homestead Act of 1862 drew homesteaders and cattle ranchers proved that farmers could be successful in the Northern Great Plains, that transportation became easier since 1871 due to the railroad tracks, and that North and South Dakota applied for statehood.

The Homestead Act of May 20, 1862, allowed people and former slaves to settle in the Western part of the United States. They could claim up to 160 acres of federal land. The Act granted public land to small farmers.

What was a result of the roman army building roads and bridges in places where they were fighting
wariber [46]

The Romans would develop road systems as they went along with their expansion. Every time they'd conquest new territory, they'd make sure to keep the new colonies controlled by facilitating access to them through the construction of new roads. In addition, the development of these routes was crucial to containing attacks and ensuring a successful defense of the Empire, as the armies would move move faster and arrive quickly to the territories in conflict.

This strategic emphasis in roads and bridges was vital to the success of their army. The routes were built specifically with speed of movement in mind, designing them mostly in straight lines for efficiency.


Hope this helps!
