Answer:

Reasons for Moving West

There was a vast amount of land that could be obtained cheaply

Great reports were continually sent back East about how fruitful and wonderful the West is, sparking a lot of interest.

The constraints of European civilization had a lot of people stuck in factory and other low-paid jobs. For the working class it was almost impossible to work themselves up in life, something that was very doable in the New World.

Mining opportunities, silver, and the gold rush was a big draw for many

The expanding railroad provided easier access to supplies, making life in the West easier.

Certain wheat strains were discovered and was capable of adapting to the climate of the plains

Being a “cowboy” and working on farms with cattle was romanticized

The lure of adventure

The correct answer is agreed to surrender immediately to Allied forces

Between July 17 and August 2, 1945, in Potsdam, a German city next to Berlin, the last of the meetings between the Allied Countries took place, with the presence of Joseph Stalin, Soviet leader; the President of the United States, Harry S. Truman; and Winston Churchill, replaced in recent days by Clement Attlee, his successor as British Prime Minister.

Called “The Big Three”, Stalin, Truman and Churchill had as their objective to decide, in those days in the Castle of Cecilia of, what would be done in Germany and in the territories occupied by the Nazis, thus establishing new frontiers in Europe, as well as the influence of the winning powers on the continent. If the fight against fascism and Nazism had united the Allies, the end of the war brought a new scenario in which interests were not only different, but antagonistic. The beginning of the polarization between Soviet Union, communist, and United States, capitalist, was being drawn.
