Which statement best describes one result of population growth in Texas during early statehood?

meriva

The correct answer is D) "Population in rural areas grew faster than urban areas".

After the <em>Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo</em>, where Mexico ultimately gave the US control of Texas in exchange for an economic compensation, the border between both countries was established at the Rio Grande.

This finally paved the way for immigrants to come to Texas and settle in the lands where cotton production was possible, resulting in a rapid growth of rural populations.

How was life the same for African-Americans in the Reconstructed South after the war?

Over [174]

The condition of the African-Americans in the Reconstructed South after the war remained almost the same as before. Superficially it might look that their conditions improved, but “Black Codes” were made to keep dominating the Afro-Americans. Under this code taxes were levied on the free Blacks that tried to join any other profession except agriculture. This law also restricted their opportunities of renting lands or possessing guns. This was another kind of slavery that the African-Americans had to go through during this phase.
