Answer:

A. It encouraged expansion by granting low-cost land to settlers

Explanation:

The Homestead Act of 1862 was an act that took effect on January 1863 which granted 160 acres of public land to anyone that paid a small fee and agreed to work on the land and improve it on 5 years.

This Act helped the westward expansion because many people moved west and were able to buy land for cheap prices and build a home and live from the land.

Why was Louis XIV being weak the greatest impact on the French Revolution
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

While Louis XVI wanted to be a good king and help his subjects, he faced enormous debt and rising resentment towards a despotic monarchy. His failure to successfully address serious fiscal problems would dog him for most of his reign. The last Factor that influenced the French Revolution was that Louis XVI was a weak leader and he allowed matters to drift. Louis took control of the emergency when he saw himself with no money at all, and his solution was to impose taxes on the nobility, which made the nobility revolt.
