I got three for ya
--
1.) The gold rush caused California's population to increase dramatically;
2.) it brought people from many different backgrounds to California; it made California more democratic because people were more equal in mining communities;
3.) it caused Native Americans and Californios to lose their land
<em>that states failed to provide equal education opportunities</em>
slavery was an important factor in the south because in the south it mainly crops and not Industrialized , so all the harvesting and planting was labor Intensive with slaves the southerns wouldnt have to do it plus there were not that many willing to tend the crops which make the slaves the mostly the way of making money on plantions.
