Answer:
The history of the holiday dates back to the pagan beliefs of the Celts; however, Western Christians on this day established a large and joyful holiday - “All Saints Day.” This choice, of course, was not accidental. It is associated with the name of the first Irish Christian who was not afraid to speak out against the forces of darkness in those days when, according to the beliefs of his people, evil received particular power. This man was St. Patrick.
Halloween mythology is rooted in Celtic paganism. In their calendar, on this day, theer is the festival Samhain. Julius Caesar, waging wars in Gaul, commenting on some Celtic religious ideas, noted that on Samhain day, a door between worlds opened and the gods freely entered the space of human life. The road was open both ways. However, after preaching of St. Patrick, in about half a century, Ireland, from a country where wild sacrifice reigned, turned into an “island of scientists and saints." People ceased to be afraid of “intruders” from the other world. Celtic society was pleased to be free from the dubious “cultural heritage” of paganism, which required murder and terrifying. Namely on this day Celtic Christians in the 8th century began to celebrate the memory of all saints.

Answer:
D
Explanation:
A: Not the answer. The population was still rural, especially in the southern states.
B: Only 1/2 the country was industrialized by the time the civil war began. The South had not really developed her cities. It was one of her problems during the civil war. Not B.
C: Jackson is best known for his dealing with the Native Americans and the Frontier.
D: It has to be this answer. Of course before the civil war the North was well developed and had large cities. After the civil war (which is what I'm thinking of) into the 1880s to the beginning of the 1900s was when the rails were built and great fortunes in Industry were made. I'd pick D but only if it was the time I'm describing.
No other answer is completely correct. D.
