How might geography have shaped the location of major metropolitan areas in the United States?

History
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
8 0

The geography played a crucial role in the establishing of the major cities of the United States. Most of the major cities are located along the coastline or very close to it. The reason for this is that they had access to the sea so they were able to trade overseas, exploit the sea, and have economic development. The climate was also much better along the coastline so naturally the people wanted to live there. Also, multiple major cities have been located along major water bodies, such as large, navigable rivers, or large lakes. The reason for this was that the water bodies were providing freshwater, irrigation water, lot of resources, and made it easy for traveling and transportation. The major mountains, the interior of the country, and the deserts mostly lack large metropolitan areas, with the main reasons being that there is not enough water, they didn't had god connectivity in the past, and the climate conditions are not very pleasant.

Which midwestern city experienced a major fire during the late 1800s
goblinko [34]

Chicago is a midwestern city that experienced a major fire during the late 1800s.

The Great Chicago Fire was a blaze that raged in Chicago, Illinois, in the United States, between October 8 and 10, 1871. Over 17,000 buildings and about 3.3 square miles of the city were destroyed by the fire, which also left over 300 people dead and more than 100,000 people homeless.

For many years, a goat that was once ejected from Wrigley Field was to blame for the Cubs' inability to go to the World Series. And for well over a century, the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 was started by a cow owned by Mrs. O'Leary.

The fire raged into the following day before ultimately being brought under control on October 10, when rain provided firefighting efforts a much-needed assist. An estimated 300 persons perished in the Great Chicago Fire, along with 100,000 more.
