The correct answer is A.

<em>The Northern Securities Company</em> was formed in the year 1901 in the state of New Jersey. It was the merging of holdings of the following railroad companies: Northern Pacific Railway, Great Northern Railway, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad.

<em>This merger created a monopoly that monopolized the railway traffic between Chicago and the Northwest.</em>

President Roosevelt, fearing restraint of trade and competition, sued the company in 1902 under the Sherman Antitrust Act ( this acts regulated the competition among enterprises).

The government won the case and the company was dissolved. The three railroad companies started to operate individually again.

How did world war 1 contribute to isolationist feeling the 1920s an the 1930s
nlexa [21]
When we won world war 1 it gave a huge boost in American pride but indeed America still wanted to focus on itself. Most Americans felt that Europe could rebuild itself (which was horribly wrong and set things up for the rise of Hitler and the start of world war 2.). The American people also felt that Americans should not have to fight and die in foreign wars and that since they were across the Atlantic they didn't need to worry about their affairs.

Why would oases be important to people traveling along trade routes?
svet-max [94.6K]
Merchants and traders who travel along these routes must stop at oases to replenish food and water supplies and this means that whoever controls an oasis also controls the trade along the route—making oases desirable to political, economic, and military leaders.
