History

The Crusaders, who tried to free the Holy Land of Muslims, had been to Asia and experienced exotic delights. They picked up goods almost unknown in Europe that they now craved. Marco Polo added to the motive because when he came back from his twenty year break in China, he brought back tales of mysterious treasures of the East. As request for the materials increased, they became more costly because of Muslim traders. Europe then desired a quicker and less expensive route to Asian goods, so they became certain to send their explorers to the West instead which is how Columbus ended up in the Bahamas.

Explain some of the factors caused people to move west.Explain some of the factors caused people to move west.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

People began moving west because of the ease of land acquisition and the railroads that attract companies to that region.

Explanation:

In the midst of the war, the representatives of the North, led by then-President Abraham Lincoln, fostered the so-called "March to the West", which was largely responsible for the migration of people to the West. The "March to the West" was a way of moving the population to regions of the country not yet occupied and, under the small property model, dismantling the "large property" project, promoted by the South.

The Westward March became an intense phenomenon between the 1860s and 1890s. The facilitation of property acquisition in the West, provided by the Land Law, or Homestead Act, 1862, contributed to this intensity of people seeking adventure of a new life in untapped lands.

The fact is that the "far west" became closer to US citizens in the second half of the nineteenth century. Westward migration also populated people's minds. The bloody wars with the Indians that occupied some of the regions, as well as the universe that revolved around the railway line, where the stagecoaches were and where the trains passed, produced the figures of the cowboys, the sheriff, the bandits and kidnappers, the brothels and many others. Not to mention the desert landscapes, typical of the American West.
