I'm pretty sure this is wrong but my best guess would be John smith. You know, that guy from Pocahontas.
<em>They helped farmers transport their goods to wider markets.</em>
Explanation:
Railroads helped farmers in the late 1800s by using them to transport their goods to wider markets.
During this time, it was still very rural, particularly in the South. While the North was beginning to become industrialized, the South was still bare and rural, except for farms. Towns and homes were spread out to make room for farms, so if goods needed to be delivered, it took a while. Railroads greatly helped farmers by not only covering these distances quickly but by taking the goods even farther and taking them to wider markets.
On the contrary, railroads would also charge small farms higher shipping rates. This meant that in order to ship the goods, the farmers would have to pay a lot. They hated this, many thought it was wrong and even exploitative.
It was caused by the sharp rise in the price of opium was seized upon by some of the Cohong trading houses and smugglers.
Answer:
The question does not provide the excerpt but I an safely answer the question.
Memory of the Tiananmen Square in China is largely suppressed. Very few records of the events exist today, and all of them only present the official government version of the events.
Most people born after 1989 do not even know about the Tiananmen square events, and if they do, it's likely that they knowledge is poor.
It is forbidden to discuss anything related to the Tiananmen square in public and in social media, doing so can get people jailed.
