Well an obvious answer would be slavery, depending on how late you're talking. After slavery ended, the country began what is known as the "industrial revolution". The north had already begun industrializing for a while, but in the 1870's and beyond, things ramped up quite a bit. Factories for clothes, shoes, farming equipment, packaged foods, and etc. became more popular. You also had coal mines, railroads, and steel mills. This showed the country was moving in the direction of mass production, and moving away from agricultural ways of living. This also meant child labor, which led to many child labor laws in the later years. This also meant many moved out of farming communities, and into larger, noisy, and crowded cities. Many immigrated to the US to take advantage of that, which led to some tension between communities.

Hope that helps!

Why might members of one political campaign want to spy or steal information from another campaign?
rodikova [14]
So they can foresee something they might say or do and prepare to counteract a statement they might make or do something they planned to do first. A good (and funny) example is in an episode of Parks & Recreation where Leslie Knope announces that she's going to put a wheelchair ramp by every set of stairs in Pawnee but then the other political party campaign announces that they're going to put wheelchair elevators next to every set of stairs in the town.
