Alexxx [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Atlanta is a city that came into being because of the railways.

Explanation:

In 1837, the Western and Atlantic Railroad chose a spot close to the Chattahoochee River in Northern Georgia and decided it would be the end of a railway line to be built from Chattanooga, Tennessee. The town that evolved around this end of the line point was first called Terminus. The town's name was changed to Atlanta in 1845 and two other railway lines were established. This connected Atlanta to a diverse range of different areas of the country. This led to steady growth levels in the city as people tied to the railways and merchants and other businesses came to settle in the city.

Why was slavery generally supported by southerners? 
rewona [7]

Answer: Slavery was an important part of their economy

Explanation:

Southern America at the time relied heavily on plantation farming to produce many goods that they exported to the rest of the world and also the North. Crops such as cotton and indigo were in high demand.

Farming these crops was gruesome work and required hard labor. This is why the South used enslaved people. They also wanted to keep labor costs at a minimum and enslaved people were not paid so slavery kept costs down. It was simply too important to their economy.
