You should look up Progressivism. Progressivists dealt with a lot of reforms in the early 1900s.
Alternatively, try looking up “US health bills since 1900.” If you need a starting point, look up the Pure Food and Drug Act/Meat Inspection Act (both in 1906) and Upton Sinclair’s “The Jungle,” which had a particularly large impact on meat inspection.

Explanation:
Greece is a mountainous country located in southeastern Europe, on the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula and the surrounding Mediterranean islands. There are about 2,000 islands in Greece.
Greece is a mountainous country, with about 80% of its area composed by mountains of different altitudes. In the center of the peninsula, the Pindus mountains extend from north-west to south-east, and rise to 2637 meters high. The highest mountain of Greece is Mount Olympus, 2919 meters high.
These geographical characteristics contributed to the isolationism of the different Greek city-states, which were unable to establish a political continuity that would unify them into one nation.
As more people arrived to America, the need for westward expansion was inevitable. As land-hungry settlers began moving westward, the faced challenge on Native American tribes along the way. Since Indian tribes living there appeared to be the main obstacle to westward expansion, white settlers petitioned the federal government to remove them. Although Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe argued that the Indian tribes in the Southeast should exchange their land for lands west of the Mississippi River, they did not take steps to make this happen. Indeed, the first major transfer of land occurred only as the result of war.
Jackson’s government succeeded. By the end of his presidency, he had signed into law almost seventy removal treaties, the result of which was to move nearly 50,000 eastern Indians to Indian Territory.
Theodore Roosevelt often said that one of his greatest accomplishments as President was preserving and creating the national park system, since this saved a great amount of land from potential private takeover.
