How did the use frontier land change after the land lotteries?

1 answer:

6 0

The Land Lotteries were a nineteenth century system of land redistribution, present mainly in Georgia. Under this system, certain citizens could win lots of land formerly occupied by Creek and Cherokee Indians. The lottery was used by the State of Georgia between 1805 and 1833.

The frontier land acquired through the lotteries was originally used for tobacco cultivation, but with the introduction of cotton and the cotton gin, agriculture shifted to large-scale cotton production. This change called for more slaves. Therefore, the land lottery not only increased the landholdings of common people, but also gave them a chance to become slaveowners.

Isolationism was stronger after the depression

Explanation:

After WWI, USA became more active economically and military in aid for Europe's countries in post-war recovery. This meant that many European countries depended on US loans to recover. After the crash in 1929, USA became more conscious about their own economy and stopped participating in European conflicts. This encouraged countries such as Germany or Japan to take action in order to expand territory, which gave place to the raise of fascism in these countries (Japan's INnvasion of China in 1937 and Germany's annexation of Czechoslovakia in 1938, for example)
