The first reason the Trans-Continental Railroad was important was because goods could now reach California from the Eastern part of our country. It also helped to open up unoccupied regions of our country that nobody was settled in. It was also a lot safer and faster to travel for people across country then by wagon train. The building of the railroad also gave the economy a boost in our country because people had to build theses railroads so people were now working.

Why was it difficult for American forces to defend themselves against Japanese fire
Ivanshal [37]
I don't know what you're referring to, and don't think it was much different than defending against a number of well-armed, trained, and disciplined troops. If anything, the German Army in WWII was a really tough bunch. 

<span>Two things may show some differences, however, at least in the war in the Pacific. Japanese were far more willing to fight to the last man, rather than surrender, whereas most German units would stick the white flag up when it was clear that they had lost the engagement, and had no retreat. In "island hopping", the US also took on extremely fortified Japanese positions that were not destroyed with even massive bombing and naval fire</span>
