Answer:

A.) Was far linger than any other canal in the United States at that time is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Eerie canal was important transportation routes in the early united states and played an important role in the westward expansion and Industrial revolution. The original canal was 363 miles long and connected Albany, New York  with Buffalo, New York. It was later expanded  and became 525 km long. It construction began in July, 1817 and was completed in eight years. The Canal was important because it provided cheap transportation of people and goods between East Coast and Midwest and shortened the travel time for the people moving to the west. It transformed New York into a commerce hub and also allowed the raw materials to be shifted from the centre of the country to the factories located in Northeast and the manufactured goods back to the Midwest. <em>Eerie canal was longest man made waterway in USA.</em>

How did Henry Clay propose to admit California to the Union without upsetting the balance between slave states and free states
Hitman42 [59]
On January 29, 1850, the 70-year-old Clay presented a compromise. For eight months members of Congress, led by Clay, Daniel Webster, Senator from Massachusetts, and John C. Calhoun, senator from South Carolina, debated the compromise. With the help of Stephen Douglas, a young Democrat from Illinois, a series of bills that would make up the compromise were ushered through Congress.

<span>According to the compromise, Texas would relinquish the land in dispute but, in compensation, be given 10 million dollars -- money it would use to pay off its debt to Mexico. Also, the territories of New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona, and Utah would be organized without mention of slavery. (The decision would be made by the territories' inhabitants later, when they applied for statehood.) Regarding Washington, the slave trade would be abolished in the District of Columbia, although slavery would still be permitted. Finally, California would be admitted as a free state. To pacify slave-state politicians, who would have objected to the imbalance created by adding another free state, the Fugitive Slave Act was passed.</span>
