Answer:

Because the place served as a zero milepost of a railroad connecting Midwest to East coast.

Explanation:

Back in the year 1837, when the state of Georgia has agreed to establish a railroad connecting the Midwest with the East Coast, it was believed that there is a need for establishing the endpoint often referred to as "Terminus".

To do this, a large stone was sunk in the present-day Atlanta in Georgia serving as the end of the railroad line.

Hence, Atlanta has a connection to the meaning end of the line "Because the place served as a zero milepost of a railroad connecting Midwest to East coast."

2) Did economic development and westward expansion affect all parts of the nation the same?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

No, the different geographical and cultural backgrounds of the U.S combined with westward expansion had a unique effect across its territories.

Explanation:

The issue of slavery became deep when the new territory brought in the landscape. The established states were increasingly broken apart as the nation gradually expanded. The economic and social differences became more prominent and both North and South latched to their practices and traditions. The late 1800s witnessed the growth of American urban society through immigration and expansion of the territory. As the requirements of factory employees became more significant, the disparity in demands between rural and urban populations of America heavily influenced the national landscape.
