Answer: B. More food was grown to feed world populations.
Explanation:
The new imperialism represents the period from the end of the 19th century to the 20th century. European countries primarily "turn" to mass colonization of the African and Asian continents. It is a period of more intensive industrial development. As new economic opportunities open up, new markets are formed, the number of people involved in new imperialist currents increases. Therefore, it was necessary to produce a larger amount of food to meet all the market needs. Advances in science and technology have also led to an increase in population, so food demand has become higher.
Answer:
Landowners grew more than cotton
<u>Thoughts I have as a free man:</u>
Years of oppression are over and finally I am a free man. For the first time in all these years in this country I feel optimistic about my future. I was forcibly taken away from my homeland at a very young age and brought to this country.
I have worked day and night on the fields of this country. Never was my work regarded or never was I treated with respect. Now I believe I will be treated with respect like every other American.
Now this is my home too. I believe I too am part of this land, the land where I have toiled for years. Now that slavery is abolished and we are granted citizenship I know that I as well as my future generations can live on this land as free people with dignity.
