Question

How did congressional republicans encourage westward expansion in the late nineteenth century?

Answer 1

Answer:

Subsidizing businesses that helped settlers

Explanation:

During the Westward expansion, settlers from the East began to move towards the West. Pioneers usually migrated with families and settled along the rivers to promote trade. Majority of the people who moved were the white settlers, seeking a place to start a new life. In the late 19th century, the government approved funds to small businesses and introduced railroad companies with extending telegraph wires across the country to help the settlers.
