Answer:

B. the lack of new factory jobs in the North

Explanation:

After the Civil War, the country was still extraordinarily separated on the grounds that the South had been crushed physically and profoundly. Other than the annihilation of the land, homes, and urban communities, no Confederate officers were permitted entombment in Arlington Cemetery, and huge numbers of their bodies were lost to their families. Carpetbaggers, go getters from the north, and rapscallions cheated individuals out of their property, abused poor people, unskilled, and gullible previous slaves, giving them bogus guarantees and controlling them for their very own political purposes.  

It is just in the twentieth century that the South has again turned into an economic power. All things considered, numerous Southern states are among the most unfortunate states in the country. The President in charge of a larger number of passings of American officers than any president in U.S. history was executed before he could correct in any genuine manner other than liberation the damage done to America.

How did the black land impact ancient Egyptian civilizations
Andru [333]

Hope it hepls bro

The ancient Egyptians thought of Egypt as being divided into two types of land, the 'black land' and the 'red land'.
River NileThe 'black land' was the fertile land on the banks of the Nile. The ancient Egyptians used this land for growing their crops. This was the only land in ancient Egypt that could be farmed because a layer of rich, black silt was deposited there every year after the Nile flooded.


DesertThe 'red land' was the barren desert that protected Egypt on two sides. These deserts separated ancient Egypt from neighbouring countries and invading armies. They also provided the ancient Egyptians with a source for precious metals and semi-precious stones.
