Jobs and opportunities were in cities, in the mills and factories, which lead to once-farmers migrating to the cities to find work, and the shift from an agrarian to an industrial society. This tended to be a more South-to-North migration, as factories were located mostly in northern areas. The construction of the railroads, which began around 1830 and continued to expand, led to a much easier method of transportation than horse or foot; thus people were able to move much faster, which helped contribute to the rise in urban populations. As a response to the challenges of urban society, people began building "up" rather than "out", for homes, etc. due to the lack of space. Also, people began to have less children as they were not "needed", as they are within an agrarian society.

Why were women paid only about half as much as men for the same jobs in the early 1900’s
yanalaym [24]

Answer: In the early 20th century, most women in the United States did not work outside the home, and those who did were primarily young and unmarried. In that era, just 20 percent of all women were “gainful workers,” as the Census Bureau then categorized labor force participation outside the home, and only 5 percent of those married were categorized as such. Of course, these statistics somewhat understate the contributions of married women to the economy beyond housekeeping and child rearing, since women’s work in the home often included work in family businesses and the home production of goods, such as agricultural products, for sale. Also, the aggregate statistics obscure the differential experience of women by race. African American women were about twice as likely to participate in the labor force as were white women at the time, largely because they were more likely to remain in the labor force after marriage.

Was the American Civil War a just war?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

My short answer is no.

Explanation:

However, I believe this question is a little bias depending on who you ask. Theoretically, I believe that this event can also be classified as a revolution. I think this because the war was a defining point for the freedom of slaves in America. Let me know if you need more clarification.
