How did the conquest of new lands most directly contribute to economic growth?

History
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The conquest of new lands directly contributed to the economic growth of nations since through territorial expansion new territories were acquired that included within themselves enormous amounts of natural resources.

Thus, for example, the territorial expansion of Spain during the conquest of America allowed the Spanish Empire access to precious metals and different grains that contributed to the economic development of the nation and the well-being of its citizens.

Another example is that of the United States, which after the annexation of California was able to exploit the enormous gold reserves that were in the territory of the State.

OleMash [197]
In the early 1800s, only men have the right to vote (universal men suffrage). However, voting rights changed in Europe during the revolts of the mid 1800s wherein the new constitution describes and allows all men the right to vote. Also, voting rights were extended through Great Britain and France — opening opportunities for unemployed French workers.

As a result of the “Corrupt Bargain” of 1824, Andrew Jackson
Dominik [7]

As a result of the "Corrupt Bargain" of 1824, Andrew Jackson resigned from the Senate.  He founded a new political party, the Jacksonian Democrats.  Beginning already in 1825, he ran a very aggressive campaign for the presidency in 1828 and won that election.

Further explanation:

In the presidential election of 1824, Andrew Jackson won the most popular votes (43%) and won the most electoral votes also.  But since no one had attained a majority of electoral votes, the decision was given to the US House of Representatives, which named John Quincy Adams as president.  Jackson accused Adams and Speaker of the House Henry Clay of what he called "a corrupt bargain."

Jackson resigned from the Senate in October, 1825.  He was nominated by the Tennessee legislature as a candidate for the presidency.  He rallied supporters around him in a new party that became known as the Democratic Party.  Jackson won the election for President in 1928.  It was a nasty, dirty campaign, with heavy personal attacks about the candidates being tossed around by both sides.  The mudslinging campaign for the presidency in 1828 set a precedent for the sort of negative politics we've been seeing ever since.
