Why were farmers who moved to the city trapped there? They owed their landlords too much money to leave. They were promised more

pay at the factories and assumed more money would come in. The farmers sold all they had to make the move and could not afford to go back. There was a great deal of appeal in the city and farmers didn't want to give up.

Farmers who moved to the city thought they would have a better life there. Most of the time, they had very little land, not enough to guarantee their survival. Two or three bad harvests ruined them. They had to ask for money to the landlord in order to keep working, but if they didn't have enough to pay them when the harvest came they would have to leave the land to pay their debt. With no place left to go, they moved to the city lured by promises of a better life that turned out to be false.

What was the Enlightenment or Age of Reason and why is it so very important to the foundation of our United States government? I
FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason and science.

The British colonist Benjamin Franklin gained fame on both sides of the Atlantic as a printer, publisher, and scientist. He embodied Enlightenment ideals in the British Atlantic with his scientific experiments and philanthropic endeavors.

Enlightenment principles guided the founding of the colony of Georgia, but those principles failed to stand up to the realities of colonial life.

The Enlightenment

The Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual and cultural movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason over superstition and science over blind faith. Using the power of the press, Enlightenment thinkers like John Locke, Isaac Newton, and Voltaire questioned accepted knowledge and spread new ideas about openness, investigation, and religious tolerance throughout Europe and the Americas. Many consider the Enlightenment a major turning point in Western civilization, an age of light replacing an age of darkness.
