Hello there!

Railroads played a HUGE role in the acceleration of industrialization. It played a huge role because railroads gave a <u>huge demand in things like steel, iron, coal, and etc</u>. Since it made a high demand in these items, people started to make businesses that sell these items. It made the industry grow because it was a <u>source of transportation</u>, which helped products, workers, and other things get around the nation. People use to have trouble getting things around because there were a limited amount of transportation resources, so the railroads solved this problem. If it wasn't for railroads, people would have trouble getting around places or sending products to other places.

Railroads help create national markets by<u> making it easier and faster for companies to ship their products to other locations </u>around the nation. Because of the railroads, national markets started to expand around the nation because there was an easy transportation option to bring products to another place. As the railroads started to expand across the country, markets followed the railroads.

To bring this all to a conclusion, railroads played a huge role in the acceleration of industrialization by providing <u>TRANSPORTATION </u>for people and products.

stepan [7]
The correct answer is D. unfamiliar with the geography and terrain.

The Continental Army, lead by George Washington, squared off with the British army during the American Revolution. During this time, the colonists were extremely unorganized, had little supplies, and was staffed by thousands of volunteers.

However the Continental Army did have an advantage in knowing the geography/climate. Considering the volunteer soldiers for the Continental Army lived in the 13 colonies (where the fighting took place) the geography and terrain was very familiar to them.
