The US helped European countries to recover from the war with the <u>Marshall Plan</u>

The Marshall Plan is part of the Cold War mentality. It was the United States' main plan for the reconstruction of the Allied countries of Europe in the years following World War II.

The Marshall Plan was a response to the Warsaw Pact.

Answer:
Method for the enslaved people to escape captivity.
Explanation:
The Underground Railroad's name is a tad misleading. It's actually the name for the process of enslaved people to escape from the plantations and their masters. "Passengers" refers to the slaves, and "conductors" are people who help lead them and direct them to the north to where they could achieve freedom. The biggest challenge was to not get caught. A lot of "conductors" were Quakers who would hide escapee slaves (or "passengers") in their homes. These people, despite being white, faced harsh punishments if caught, such as getting their homes taken away, persecuted from society, killed, and so on. The most famous "conductor" is Harriet Tubman (a black woman whom freedom was given but she chose to face dangers to free others), dubbed the "Female Moses". She freed 300 enslaved people and never once lost a "passenger".
All in all, the Underground Railroad is referring to the process of enslaved people running away, following certain paths to reach freedom using the aid of good Samaritans/conductors to guide them.
Um it totally revolutionized it. Before the railroads, farmers could only produce what they needed and enough to sell to the *nearby* people. With railroads, transportation was super duper cheap and maximum fast.
