Prohibition would have failed regardless of the atmosphere, because people like to drink alcohol. The permisive attitude of the times (mild compared to today) meant there was little social stigma attached to those who ignored prohibition.

The <em>Union</em> was confirmed by the most industrialized states in the country. This meant that the production of weapons and tools related to war logistics was controlled by them. Besides having more weapons and supplies, the <em>Union</em> also had more soldiers, as the population was considerably bigger in the north.

Railroads are a sign of development. In terms of war, they helped mobilize troops and resources along the country with relative ease in comparison to their <em>Confederate</em> counterparts. This represented a great advantage for the <em>Union</em>.

Besides having the previously mentioned advantages. The <em>Union</em> also had the naval power on their side and executed the blockade in an attempt to cut the resources from The <em>Confederacy</em>.

dezoksy [38]

The correct answer is expanded into southern India to control trade routes

Explanation: Chandragupta had a true empire that stretched from the Indus to the Ganges, dominated the delta of these two rivers, and was supported by a mighty army. The administrative organization seems to have been well undertaken, overseen by imperial inspectors, and facilitated by the good state of the roads which the sovereign had taken great care of. It was no longer a question for Seleucus to despise the alliance of such a powerful monarch: he left his territories beyond the Indus and bestowed on her the hand of a Greek princess. From that moment on, India entered the orbit of the great empires of time; its capital, situated in Pataliputra or Magadha, was for many decades the center of a Greek embassy which Ambassador Magastenio illustrated, and whose information is precious, though secondhand.
