The colonists went to Virginia during the 1600's because they wanted to explore gold in the area. Unfortunately, no gold was found in Virginia. However, they found that the tobacco crop would be a profitable industry. Tobacco plantations require manual labor and this is maintained by Virginia's labor force, which are mainly composed by slaves and servants.

What was the main benefit of the interchangeable parts created by Eli Whitney
faltersainse [42]

After the independence of the United States, there was a great demand for muskets in the nation, and independence made it possible to produce manufactured goods. Eli Whitney found sponsors to support the concept of interchangeable production parts in the manufacture of muskets. However, their sponsors became very impatient when, after a considerable time had passed and they had spent a lot of money, they learned that they were still making tools to make parts. In the long run, however, their efforts managed to produce interchangeable and economic parts in large quantities. The concept of producing a set of dies to make a million parts, which is already accepted today, was not well understood at that time.

Whitney's invention of the cotton gin typifies many extremely important mechanical advances of the time, but there is little doubt that his concept of creating tools to produce interchangeable parts was the greatest innovation of that period.

Whitney's concepts were later exploited by Henry Ford and others in the industry.

Explain why officers were allowed to have small farms. (In Fort Union)
hichkok12 [17]

The officers may have been allowed so as to make the fort a better settlement and let them live there longer.

Explanation:

Fort Union had always been fairly busy and it required a lot of food supplies due to the amount of the refugees coming in at all times.

This could help the pockets of the officers who could just now have farms there and use their own produce to turn them profits and have readily available sources of food for the migrants landing there.

This allowed them to have a rather stable stay at their post as they would in this time.
