1. The Transcontinental Railroad System provided jobs across the nation. The invention of the steam engine caused transportation to improve. As a result, businesses made profit, and transporting products were easier and faster.

2. John McAdams was a Scottish engineer who modernized the way we built roads. He is important to transportation because of the changes he made to roads. He changed the roads by making sure the roadbeds were raised to make sure there was adequate drainage. The roadbeds were then laid with broken stones in symmetrical patterns, and covered with small stones to make a hard surface. McAdam discovered that the best stone or gravel for road surfacing had to be broken or crushed, and then graded to a constant size of chippings. This revolutionized roads, and helped a lot in regards to transportation, making it easier and faster.

3. The Erie Canal was a canal located in New York City and was completed in 1825. We benefited from railroads and canals while shipping goods because it made shipping cheaper and faster. Before railroads and canals took in place, shipping took longer because they had to deliver them, most likely on horses, and it often made the goods damaged.

All of the aforementioned were designed to help the Allied powers during World War II. Even though the US wanted to stay "neutral" when World War II broke out, they did want to benefit by maintaining economic relationships with these countries.

The Lend-Lease Act is a perfect example. This allowed the US government to lend weapons and other materials to nations like France, Great Britain, and China during World War II. If the goods weapons/materials were destroyed, it was on the country using them to replace it.

The Cash and Carry policy was another example of the US government helping the Allied powers. This policy stated that countries may buy materials from the US, as long as they pay in cash and provide transportation for the materials at their own risk.

Both of these show that even though the US was not technically in the war yet, they heavily favored the Allied powers.
