Answer:

The Klondike Gold Rush, Dawes Act, and Homestead Act were contributing factors to the <u><em>westward expansion.</em></u>

Explanation:

Supported by Manifest Destiny, the westward expansion was not only an occupation of the land but a gradual process. Each part of this process had the contribution of the Klondike Gold Rush, the Dawes Act, and the Homestead Act.

Now let's see why and how:

  • Klondike Gold Rush: beyond the fact to find gold in the North, the Klondike Gold Rush contribute to massive migration and the settlement in parts of Canada. Around 30,000 of the 100,000 or so prospectors that set out for the Klondike actually made it there.
  • Dawes Act: despite it's not an expansion movement, the Dawes Act break up the Native American tribes and to see them as individuals. However, this act opened space to the settlement of non-natives.
  • Homestead Act: this act officialized the westward expansion. The act, which took effect January 1, 1863, granted 160 acres (65 hectares) of unappropriated public lands to anyone who paid a small filing fee and agreed to work on the land and improve it, including by building a residence, over a five-year period.

What has been the most significant effect of artistic development in new mexico since world war II? Give two reasons to justify
babymother [125]

Answer:

History: The Great Depression and World War II. One of the hardest hit segments of the New Mexico economy during the depression was farming. In 1931, the state’s most important crops were worth only about half of their 1929 value. Dry farmers were especially devastated as they suffered from both continually high operating costs and a prolonged drought that dried up portions of New Mexico so badly that they became part of the Dust Bowl. From Oklahoma to eastern New Mexico, winds picked up the dry topsoil, forming great clouds of dust so thick that it filled the air. On May 28, 1937, one dust cloud, or “black roller,” measuring fifteen hundred feet high and a mile across, descended upon the farming and ranching community of Clayton, New Mexico. The dust blew for hours and was so thick that electric lights could not be seen across the street. Everywhere they hit, the dust storms killed livestock and destroyed crops. In the Estancia Valley entire crops of pinto beans were killed, and that once productive area was transformed into what author John L. Sinclair has called “the valley of broken hearts.”

In all parts of New Mexico, farmland dropped in value until it bottomed out at an average of $4.95 an acre, the lowest value per acre of land in the United States. Many New Mexico farmers had few or no crops to sell and eventually, they were forced to sell their land contributing in the process to the overall decline in farmland values.The depression also hurt New Mexico’s cattle ranchers, for they suffered from both drought and a shrinking marketplace. As grasslands dried up, they raised fewer cattle; and as the demand for beef declined, so did the value of the cattle on New Mexico’s rangelands. Like the farmers, many ranchers fell behind in their taxes and were forced to sell their land, which was bought by large ranchers.Agriculture’s ailing economic condition had a particularly harsh effect on New Mexico, for the state was still primarily rural during the 1930’s, with most of its people employed in raising crops and livestock. Yet farmers and ranchers were not the only ones to appear on the list of those devastated by depressed economic conditions. Indeed, high on the list were the miners, who watched their industry continue the downward slide that had begun in the 1920’s.
