Answer 1

Answer: charter

Answer 2

Answer: Erie Canal

Answer 3

Answer: Farming in the East became more scientific and commercial. Eastern capital, settlers, and transportation projects opened up the frontier of the Old Northwest, creating an economic as well as cultural link. Farming in the Northwest switched from corn and hog production for southern markets to wheat production for eastern markets.

Answer 4

Answer: Although opposed to slavery, many northerners did not welcome competition by free blacks for jobs and housing. Nowhere did free blacks enjoy equal political and civil rights or economic and educational opportunities. Those states with greater black populations generally imposed greater restrictions. The fastest-growing western states were committed to white supremacy and black exclusion.

Answer 5

Answer: The riots stemmed from the frustration of lower-class whites, many of them Irish immigrants, at competition for jobs from free blacks and the squalid conditions of their neighborhoods. The police force was unable to control the rowdiness. Increased city attention to living conditions, education, and police protection might be considered as preventive actions.

Answer 6

Answer: Industrialization changed the family economy and led to the notion that the sexes occupied separate spheres. The proper place for the woman was perceived as the home, where she would serve as the moral and cultural guardian for the family in her roles as wife and mother. This seemingly restrictive view of women later helped prompt women to take on roles in voluntary associations to reshape and reform the broader society.
