1 answer:

3 0

Proponents of the New South envisioned a post-Reconstruction southern economy modeled on the North’s embrace of the Industrial Revolution.

Henry W. Grady, a newspaper editor in Atlanta, Georgia, coined the phrase the "New South” in 1874. He urged the South to abandon its longstanding agrarian economy for a modern economy grounded in factories, mines, and mills.

Although textile mills and tobacco factories emerged in the South during this time, the plans for a New South largely failed. By 1900, per-capita income in the South was forty percent less than the national average, and rural poverty persisted across much of the South well into the twentieth century.

What aspects of the Jewish faith might have contributed to the dissatisfaction of many Jewish people living under Roman rule?

vodomira [7]

There are several factors of the Jewish faith that left many of them dissatisfied with their Roman Rulers.

For example, Sabbath, a day break on Saturday is observed by pious Jews. On this day, they do not work or earn a living. However, Roman work week would have made it impossible for Jews to observe the Sabbath.

The Romans had also destroyed the Temple of Solomon, which was the most important place of worship for Jews.
