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."

Why was sudan under british rule
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

Similar to the Egyptians, the British sought to gain control over the Sudan to establish both a settler and plantation based colony that would allow for them to gain more accessibility to the Nile, its trade routes, and the trading markets. This access to the Nile and its trade markets allowed for the British to gain significant amounts of profit from the sale and trading of British manufactured goods including textiles, alcohol, and guns along with establishing new trading relationships with the growing cities. Along with this, the British heavily desired to gain access to the existent natural resources in Sudan with specific interest in the cotton supply
