History
1 answer:
larisa [96]2 years ago

The best answer is D.

On the eve of the civil war, the population of the United states was approximately 32 million people ( both black and white), of which 20 million lived in the North. Nearly one million Americans worked in industry and manufacturing rather than agriculture so there was no shortage of people to work in factories.

Many thousands of people moved from rural areas to cities to find jobs. Recently arrived immigrants took jobs in factories just to get started in America. Men, women and children worked in factories often for long hours and very little pay. 

Also during the civil war, Northern cities and their industries remained untouched and so manufacture and production of goods went on as usual.

Recognize the practice of slavery and other forms of forced labor experienced
Nataliya [291]

The slavery has been a human practice for several millenniums, and it was practiced all over the world.

Explanation:

The slavery is something that the humans from all over the world were practicing unfortunately. This practice continued for millenniums, and it only stopped relatively recently. the period between the 13th and 17th century is a very important one when it comes to slavery, as it spread out much more and started to be practiced not just locally, but regionally and even between different continents.

East Africa and West Africa were using lot of slaves, and they were mostly enslaving people that were conquered and from weaker tribes on the outskirts.  They were forcing them to work in mining, or to lift and carry trade goods. Later, they started to sell slaves to the Europeans as they saw a great economic opportunity.

In Europe itself, the slavery was mostly found in the Balkan Peninsula, were the Ottomans were forcing the people to work for them, and took large percentage of their crops and money. The European nations that became imperial powers were buying slaves from Africa, and they moved them into the Americas, thus made it international slavery, establishing the Atlantic slave trade.

Southwest Asia in this period also had lot of slaves, most of which were people that didn't wanted to accept the Islam, so people of different religious backgrounds, of numerous ethnic and racial groups, that were caught, were enslaved and treated as animals.
