History
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: An extended siege.

Explanation:

General Ulysses S. Grant had first tried to take Vicksburg in 1862 but failed and had to try again because Vicksburg was a very important town that sat on the Mississippi river and would give the Union control of the river if it fell.

After Grant defeated General John C. Pemberton close to Vicksburg, Pemberton retreated to Vicksburg where he was trapped by Grant who fended off attacks to liberate the city and constantly bombarded it from Union positions.

Ordering his soldiers to build 15 miles of trenches around Vicksburg, Grant was able to starve the city for 47 days such that Pemberton was forced to surrender to the Union.

How did industrialization change life in the United States?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

One of the major changes was the construction of the transcontinental railroad that finished in 1869.  Railroads created an increased demand in manufacturing since the businesses could now produce and sell in larger amounts.

While major business were moving forward economically, farmers were experiencing negative changes in their lifestyles. Even though the farmers were still putting in the same amount of work, the prices of their crops were decreasing.

Industrialization also had a major impact on the lives of women and children. Women were subjected to work the same amount of hours as men, however they got paid half of the men wages.

And the last major group of people that suffered from industrialization were the Native Americans. As the railroad use became more common, many people moved westward and destroyed the Native American homes.
