Answer: The government gave land to the railroads to spur the development of a transcontinental railroad.

Explanation: To encourage the development of the railroad, the federal government passed the Pacific Railroad Act that granted land grants to railroads. The government gave public lands to railroad corporations in trade for building tracks in particular locations. Much of the growth can be associated with the building of the cross-country railroads. In 1862, Congress legislated the Pacific Railway Act, which approved the construction of a transcontinental railroad. The first such railroad was built on May 10, 1869.

Why was that a problem with Voltaire?
NeX [460]

Answer:

Why was what a problem with him???

Explanation:

Many of his most famous works were banned.

Since his writing denigrated everything from organized religion to the justice system, Voltaire ran up against frequent censorship from the French government. A good portion of his work was suppressed, and the authorities even ordered certain books to be burned by the state executioner. To combat the censors, Voltaire had much of his output printed abroad, and he published under a veil of assumed names and pseudonyms. His famous novella “Candide” was originally attributed to a “Dr. Ralph,” and he actively tried to distance himself from it for several years after both the government and the church condemned it. Despite his best attempts to remain anonymous, Voltaire lived in almost constant fear of arrest. He was forced to flee to the French countryside after his “Letters Concerning the English Nation” was released in 1734, and he went on to spend the majority of his later life in unofficial exile in Switzerland.
