The big motivator was the California Gold Rush (1849). Before the railroad, there were three ways to get to the west coast: (1) cross country in a wagon train (there were several routes, including the Oregon Trail); (2) by sailing ship around Cape Horn; and (3) by ship to Panama, across the mountainous and disease-ridden isthmus, then up to California in another ship.

What is the name of the lava filled dimension you can travel to via a portal

NeX [460]

The Nether is the name of the lava-filled dimension you can travel to via a portal.

Explanation: The Nether is a liquid, like measurement, loaded with flame, magma, and hazardous crowds for a Mine craft game. To get to the Nether, the player must build an under entrance in the Over world (entries made at last don't actuate). To make the gateway, the player should initially construct a rectangular obsidian outline, extending in size from at least 4×5 to a limit of 23×23. When the casing is manufactured, it would then be able to be enacted by putting fire inside the casing, utilizing rock and steel, fire charge, allocators or any materials.
