i kno the other guy answered, but here's some things on him! hope this helped you! :)

Explanation:

Stephen Arnold Douglas (April 23, 1813 – June 3, 1861) was an American politician and lawyer from Illinois.

He was one of two Democratic Party nominees for president in the 1860 presidential election, which was won by Republican Abraham Lincoln.

Douglas had previously defeated Lincoln in the 1858 United States Senate election in Illinois, known for the Lincoln–Douglas debates.

During the 1850s, Douglas was one of the foremost advocates of popular sovereignty, which held that each territory should be allowed to determine whether to permit slavery within its borders.

Douglas was nicknamed the "Little Giant" because he was short in physical stature but a forceful and dominant figure in politics. "

How did the conquest of new lands most directly contribute to economic growth?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The conquest of new lands directly contributed to the economic growth of nations since through territorial expansion new territories were acquired that included within themselves enormous amounts of natural resources.

Thus, for example, the territorial expansion of Spain during the conquest of America allowed the Spanish Empire access to precious metals and different grains that contributed to the economic development of the nation and the well-being of its citizens.

Another example is that of the United States, which after the annexation of California was able to exploit the enormous gold reserves that were in the territory of the State.
