Answer:
<em>The </em><em><u>Mormons</u></em><em> faced persecution in New York and Illinois. They wanted to find a place where they would be free to practice their </em><em><u>religion.</u></em><em>
</em>
<em>Therefore, they started out on a westward journey and settled near the Great Salt Lake.</em>
There was a lot of religious persecution in the past and this played a major role in the establishment of the United States as we know it today. If Puritans had not been mistreated in England they might not have founded some colonies in the Americas.
Unfortunately this religious repression continued even in the United States and one such group that suffered were the Mormons. The movement started in the first half of the 19th century and after facing some persecution, they left New York and Illinois and went further westward where they could practice being Mormons in peace.
The draft was easily avoided by people by simply getting married or acting gay. Military IDs were also forged to get dodge the draft. If you attended a college or had a kid you wouldn’t be drafted as well
The Russian Empire failed to catch up with the Industrial Revolution and this was the main reason it failed in 1917.
The main cause why Russian Empire did not success at industrialization in the 1800s was the massive land the country was laying on. It was hard for a centralized government to invest in the rural areas, which usually were far away from the main cities: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Ekaterinburg, etc.
Another important aspect of their failure was that the high classes of the empire showed no interest in investing in industrialization. Starting with the Royal family, to aristocrats, the bourgeoisie and the landlords, there were all cut off from the every day life of a peasant/worker. Even there were exports towards European countries, the profits were usually back to the pockets of the wealthy and greedy.
The causes:
Feudal social structure
Csar's lack of interest in industrialization
The effects:
defeat in Crimean war (the Russian industry was not prepared to face the amount of weapons that were needed)
poor military and railroad system (no industry = no good weapons = bad military; no industry = no good metal & practice = no good railroad system)
