Which state became the first to grant women full voting rights in 1890

What made people from eastern cities want to move west after the US Civil War
Definition1/19

Most westward expansion increased right after the civil war due to the mining industry in the west. The civil war caused economic problems. People were looking to start over and "get rich quick". Many people desired to own their own land. Thus the Homestead Act was created.

The building of the transcontinental railroad created more jobs and led to more land being sold and purchased.

The demands for beef in the west and the cattle drives led to ranching and farming.

Term1/19
What sort of people took advantage of the Homestead Act
Definition1/19

Everyone from adventuresome people , to entrepeneurs , scammers , and the desperate. Everyone saw the opportunity differently, but it was an important part of expansion Westward in the US, and it worked well . If not, we'd all still be living in Kansa City, so personally, I am very grateful to those hardy pioneer men and women who eventually made it possible for us to expand to West Coast. Those that lingered in the Plains states are still very important to our food supply to this day . I salute each and every one of them.

White Americans, freed slaves, and immigrants.
