The KoL was an organization founded by Uriah Stephens in 1869. It accepted skilled and unskilled workers, women, and people of any race, unlike many other labor unions. They fought for eight-hour workdays and equal pay for women.

The AFL was a labor union that only allowed skilled workers to enter, so no women or people of other races. It was founded by Samuel Gompers in 1881, and it focused on getting better working conditions for the working class. They used collective bargaining to gain higher wages and shorter workdays.

Why did settlers decide to establish Olympia where they did? They thought the land was good for farming. They could trade with A
satela [25.4K]

The Lushootseed people lived for milenia, where Olympia was then located. This because of how good this area was for fishing.

When the new-comers arrived, the great fishing was also one of the atractives they saw in this area. Another thing that attracted them was the possiblity to eventually use the Tumwater Falls as a source of energy (water-power)

But the main reason why this area was chosen was the great location it had, north to important trade routes. It allowed for great water access movility on a regional level all across Puget Sound and beyond. It is important to mention the importance water transportation had in those times since it was easier.

<em>"They found water access to Puget Sound"</em><em>  </em>This is the corect answer

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A destroy Europe is the answer

Explanation:

The Great Compromise solved issues between states with small populations and states with large populations.

The Great Compromise was developed at the Constitutional Convention and helped in creating the modern day structure of Congress. In this deal, both states with small populations and large populations got something they wanted. For example, the Senate would be composed of 2 Senators from each state, regardless of their states population. This helped to ensure that smaller states had a voice in the creation of federal laws.

On the other hand, the House of Representatives would have the number of representatives based on a states population. The greater the population, the more representatives. This made larger states happy, as they felt this accurately represented the power they should have in Congress.
