white males
This was an effort espoused by "Jacksonian democracy" (in reference to Andrew Jackson). The stated intent was to allow common Americans to have more influence in the political processes.
The expanding of the democratic franchise aimed at getting rid of property requirements for voting. That benefit thus went to white males. It didn't do anything for blacks under slavery, of course, and and wasn't at all concerned about giving voting rights to women.
The creation of technology such as saddles, stirrups, and even caravans were integral in the growth of the Silk Road because it allowed more people to travel them.
These two regions were singled out because many Americans held the perception that individuals from southern and eastern Europe could not be assimilated properly into the culture of the United States. Their languages, customs, and religions were thought to be too different from those of preceding generations of immigrants for full scale integration into American culture. The fear was that these newer immigrants would always be "hyphenates,” or citizens who would call themselves, or be called by others, by such hyphenated names as "Polish-Americans,” "Greek-Americans,” and "Italian-Americans.”
Beyond the fear of being swamped by unassimilable immigrants from eastern and southern Europe was the fear that these immigrants’ increasing numbers would depress wages for American workers. In addition, some people feared the potential of the rising political power of the new class of immigrants.
