Answer:

The Second Industrial Revolution affected each region differently

Explanation:

  • North: The industry grew which made this region the leading industrial region of the US. This also created a good environment for the formation of labor unions and the first strikes for better wages. The industrial prosperity made many immigrants settle there to work in industries. At last, the industries also pushed the creation of railroads.
  • South: The Southern States remained mostly agricultural, but the growth of the industries in the Northern States pushed the demand for more cotton, which also helped the growth of the Southern plantations and as a consequence the expansion of slavery. But also many African Americans began to scape to the Northern States to work and become free, but during the Civil War, most of the railroads were destroyed and had to be reconstructed.
  • West: The West was a new region and during this period there was a struggle if this new territory should allow slavery or not. Despite that, the region had a huge space for development which made possible for immigration especially Chinese immigrants went there and worked mostly in the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad.
  • Midwest: In the Midwest there was a different social settlement, there was a development of labor unions but most of them were created by farmers that were active in politics and aimed to make social reforms, this region also had a great number of immigrants to work in low wages work. But with the growth of the industry in the North and the growth of the cotton plantations in the South, the Midwest became a major hub for shipping and transportation of goods which also helped the cities to grow and develop.
