When the Soviet Union launched Sputnik on October 4, 1957, it set off the space race with the United States.

katovenus [111]

From colonial times into the early 20th century a majority of americans lived in the countryside and worked on farms. A dramatic expansion in farming took place from 1860 yo 1910.

This means that the <em>cities at the end of the 19th century</em> were large because of the rural life. Although the eastern image of farm life on the prairies emphasizes the isolation of the lonely farmer and farm life, in reality rural folk created a rich social life for themselves.
