Answer: The government gave them to railroad companies for development.

Explanation:

The United States government used part of the public domain land to aid and support the construction of railroads.

Private banks were hesitant to grant money to railroad companies because they would probably take lots of time to pay it off. That´s why Congress granted land to the railroad companies. Four out of the five transcontinental railroads were created with aid from the federal government. This contributed to a faster settlement of the West.

<h3>Who are mauriyan rulers?</h3>

Chandragupta Maurya founded the Maurya Empire, also known as the Mauryan Empire, in 322 BCE, and it lasted until 185 BCE in a loosely organized state. It was a geographically vast ancient Indian Iron Age literal power in South Asia with its center in Magadha.

The Indo-Gangetic Plain was forced under the control of the Maurya Empire, whose megacity capital was Pataliputra ( ultramodern Patna).

The loyalty of the military leaders in charge of the fortified metropolises that dot the conglomerate's territory outside of this Homeric nucleus determined its geographic reach.

Following the submission of a portion of India by Alexander the Great, the Mauryan Empire was founded in 321 BCE.

Three important emperors served as the strong leaders are Chandragupta Maurya (321–298 BCE), Bindusara (298–272 BCE), and Ashoka (272- 232 BCE).
