The Railroads

Railroads completely transformed the United States socially, politically, and economically during the Gilded Age. Literally the engine of the new industrialized economy, they facilitated the speedy transportation of raw materials and finished goods from coast to coast. In addition to raw materials, these “iron horses” carried people west to settle the heartland and the frontier. As the railroads grew in power, they exerted increasing influence on local and state governments, eventually prompting Congress and reform-minded presidents to pass laws to regulate the new industry.

Los Incas, la civilización e imperio más importante de América del Sur cuando llegaron los españoles a América, era una sociedad
GrogVix [38]

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no se anexan opciones o incisos para contestar la pregunta es la siguiente.

La respuesta correcta es "falso."

Es falso que los Incas, la civilización e imperio más importante de América del Sur cuando llegaron los españoles a América, era una sociedad altamente democratizada e, incluso, elegían mediante sufragio o votación universal al emperador o Zapa Inca.

Todo lo contrario, los Incas eran un Imperio, no una democracia ni nada que le le pereciera.

El Zapa Inca era dueño y amo absoluto del territorio Inca en los Andes de la región del Perú.. La creencia de los pobladores Incas es que este Zapa Inca era descendiente de Manco Cápac, fundador del imperio Inca con sede en Cuzco.
