Answer: 4- large-scale economic growth that resulted in the rise of big business

Explanation:

The Transcontinental Railroad allowed for goods to be transported across great distances and to previously inaccessible areas thereby increasing trade and contributing to economic growth. It led to the rise of the great and powerful Railroad companies.

The Bessemer process made it much more easier to produce steel and as a result led to the rise of the first business to be worth over a billion dollars in the US, the mighty US Steel. The increased volume of steel production aided economic growth as steel was a very sought after commodity.

Describe the treaty of Versailles using at least 5 sentence
MrMuchimi

The treaty of Versailles was a bad idea. It benefited countries like Britain, France and America as they where the top powers to come out of the war. It blamed all of the damages caused to their countries squarely on the Germans simply because Germany was the best target. The German where forced to surrender all their foreign lands. They where forbidden from entering the Rhineland. They where forbidden from uniting with Austria. They where forced to pay reparations to the winning side after the war, leaving the German people and the Wiemar republic in poverty! If it wasn't for all these terms suppressing Germany, Hitler would never pushed the boundaries of the treaty, the Nazi's where unlikely to ever rise to such power as they where elected as a last hope when Germany lost faith in democracy and therefore Britain would not have had to declare war on Germany for taking over Poland and Slovakia, entering the Rhine and uniting with Austria. It is often said that WW1 was just a build up to world war two, as if it wasn't for the treaty of versailles none of this was ever going to or even had a possibility f happening.

Explain the political rise of Abraham Lincoln
Inessa [10]
Lincoln's political rise is one of the most interesting stories in American history.  When Lincoln first entered into politics at the age of 23, he was seen as being ill-prepared to hold office and, moreover, lacking in charm in education.  <span> Over time, his intelligence, good humor, and ability to connect with votes lead him to gain greater political clout.  Before 1856, Lincoln's political offices consisted mostly of service in the Illinois General Assembly and one term in Congress. In 1856 he joined the new Republican Party.  Two years after that he ran for the U.S. Senate, making a name for himself in debates. By 1860 he became the first Republican candidate to win a presidential election.</span>
