The Homestead Act of 1862 encouraged pioneers to move to the prairie to develop new farms. Some of the land was difficult to far

m because the region was dry and the soil was too hard for wooden plows. Also, wind and snow made the winters harsh. However, settlers turned the region into productive farmland through perseverance and the use of devices like the steel plow and the windmill, which was used to pump water up from deep underground. As railroads expanded, farmers could more easily transport large amounts of grain and other crops to national and international markets.

Answer:

Western region

Explanation:

The paragraph describes above the development of the WESTERN region in the United States.

The Homestead Act of 1862 was issued by Abraham Lincoln's administration during the American civil war. It encourages the westward expansion in which willing individuals were granted 160 acres of free land each to farm and build a dwelling abode.

The early years of settlement in the western region of the United States were characterized by a lot of difficulties ranging from agricultural problems to climatic issues. However, the condition improved as the railroad expanded to the region.

Which accomplishment of thomas jefferson is shown on the map as unorganized territory
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

<h2>The Louisiana Purchase</h2>

<em>[You didn't show the map, but that's the probable answer.]</em>

Explanation:

President Thomas Jefferson commissioned James Monroe and Robert Livingston to negotiate a deal with France to acquire New Orleans or all or part of Florida. When they went to France to negotiate, Monroe and Livingston found that Napoleon was ready to sell a much wider range of territory to the United States, to finance his European wars.  Napoleon was asking $22 million for the whole territory that became the Louisiana Purchase.  The US team negotiated the price down to $15 million.  

Then there was a constitutional crisis back home:  Did the President have the authority under the constitution to make such a major addition to the nation's territory and spend the nation's funds to do so?   Jefferson himself initially thought a constitutional amendment might be necessary to authorize such a large action. Ultimately, Jefferson simply sought approval of the purchase from Congress.  He used this analogy to describe what his administration was doing on behalf of the country:  "“It is the case of a guardian, investing the money of his ward in purchasing an important adjacent territory; and saying to him when of age, I did this for your good."

What is babylonian society structured around?
pshichka [43]
King => Nobles => Free citizens => Soldiers/Civil Service => Slaves.

Three main social classes included the awilu (free persons), the wardu (slaves), and the mushkenu (free persons of low estate).

As a punishment, free persons could be forced into slavery. Parents of children could also be sold into slavery.

Babylonians based the structure of their society around their own religious beliefs and how they will prosper. They were ruthless people who conquered many nations through force. Some accounts even state that the Babylonians would kill entire civilizations, even if the civilization had surrendered without any sort of resistance.
