The end of the Indian Wars in 1885 marked the end of threats to settlers in the West, sparking mass migration. The population of California rose by over 600,000 people between 1890 and 1900. Barbed wire was invented in 1874, fencing off the Great Plains and ending the era of cattle drives and cowboys. Railroads were built through the West in the late 1800s, connecting new territories and encouraging settlement through land grants from the government. The railroads reduced costs and increased access, further opening the West to migration.

The end of the Indian Wars in 1885 with Geronimo's surrender removed a major threat to settlers in the West. The invention of barbed wire in 1874 fenced off the Great Plains, ending the era of open cattle drives and hurting cowboys. The expansion of railroads through land grants and government subsidies between 1862-1869 opened up the western territories to increased migration and settlement by connecting the East to resources in the West like land, water, and timber.
Chapter 3, Section 1 Colonial England
The document discusses Britain's policies toward its American colonies in the 17th-18th centuries. It established strict trade regulations through Acts like the Navigation Acts to control colonial trade for economic and political gain. However, Britain faced difficulties enforcing these policies as the colonies grew. It began practicing "Salutary neglect", relaxing regulations to maintain colonial loyalty and trade. This inconsistency in policy could have consequences, as the colonies may one day forget their allegiance to Britain and seek independence.
mineral revolution south africa
The mineral revolution in South Africa began with the discovery of diamonds in 1867 and gold in 1886, sparking large-scale mining. This required vast amounts of migrant labor from African territories, attracted by wages needed to pay new taxes or buy goods. Mining spurred urbanization and the emergence of compounds to house workers. Agriculture also commercialized as farms replaced smallholders with wage labor. Infrastructure like railways expanded to transport goods. New laws and wars of conquest helped annex African lands for mining prospects and labor recruitment. The mineral revolution fundamentally reshaped South African demographics, politics, and economy.
Grade 8 mineral revolution
The document provides an overview of the mineral revolution in South Africa that began with the discovery of diamonds and gold in the late 19th century. It discusses how this led South Africa to transition from an agricultural to industrial economy. The mineral revolution drastically changed South African society and led to the loss of independence of African kingdoms. It also discusses how the demand for cheap labor on the mines led to the implementation of segregation policies and the compound system to control the African population. Land was also dispossessed from African communities to ensure a supply of cheap labor to the mines.

After the Civil War, Americans began settling in the West in large numbers, pursuing opportunities in mining, ranching, and farming. Life for these settlers and for the Native Americans who already lived there was often difficult. The railroads played a key role in enabling and hastening migration West by transporting both settlers and cattle. During this period of western expansion and settlement, many Native American tribes lost their traditional homelands and ways of life.
The Agricultural South Chapter 3, Section 2
The document provides context about life and society in the agricultural South from the 17th to 18th centuries. It describes the fertile soil and single cash crop economy based around tobacco and cotton plantations. It notes the rural nature of the South and importance of rivers for transportation. It discusses the roles of indentured servants and slavery in the Southern economy and society, and some ways slaves resisted and maintained aspects of their culture.

TREATY OF WAITANGI - LOSS OF WHENUA - MAORI LAND
The document discusses the loss of Maori land in New Zealand following the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840. It notes that in the years after the Treaty, there were numerous disputes over the sale of Maori land. It also discusses how Maori chiefs like Hone Heke and Te Rauparaha had clashes with Europeans over land loss. Finally, it mentions that by 1975, Maori tribal possession of land had declined drastically to only 3 million acres compared to the 66 million acres that were originally acknowledged as belonging to Maori iwi by the British crown in 1840.
American History Chapter 3, Section 2
Tobacco became the profitable cash crop that saved the Jamestown colony, but it was a labor-intensive crop to cultivate. Plantation owners in the South from 1690 to 1750 utilized indentured servants and enslaved Africans for labor, as indigenous natives had proved too difficult to enslave as they knew the land and could escape. Enslaved Africans were obtained through the triangular trade and endured the dreaded Middle Passage. Slaves resisted their owners through methods like faking illness, breaking tools, and working slowly, though rebellions like the Stono Rebellion in South Carolina led to crackdowns and punishment of slaves whether involved or not.

Gildas' text describes the Saxon conquest of Britain in the 6th century. The British king Vortigern invited the Saxons to Britain to help fight invaders from the north, but the Saxons instead decided to conquer Britain. They began attacking in 367 and gradually took control of southeastern Britain, including Essex, Kent and Sussex by 450. However, the Britons led by King Arthur achieved a major victory over the Saxons at Mount Badon between 490-503. Ultimately, the Saxons took power over most of Britain within 150 years, settling there and imposing their own lifestyle, according to the critical account of the British monk Gildas.
Unit 5.1 urbanisation
The document summarizes the process of urbanization in 19th century Britain. As the population rapidly grew in cities due to the Industrial Revolution, overcrowding and unsanitary conditions led to widespread disease outbreaks. Millions lived in cramped, dark back-to-back houses with no running water or sewers. Reformers like Edwin Chadwick brought attention to the public health crisis and its link to high death rates. Laws were passed to build modern sewage systems and improve living standards in cities. By the early 20th century, urbanization was complete and living conditions had significantly improved through these reforms.

Over the past 1000 years in India, there have been significant changes in technology, daily life, and rule of law. The middle of the 19th century saw British historians divide Indian history into Hindu, Muslim, and British periods. New technologies like firearms, the spinning wheel, and crops like coffee and tea were introduced. Daily life was impacted as rules and regulations evolved over time under successive ruling powers.
America colonies
By the early 1700s, piracy had become a liability for empires as pirates attacked merchant ships. Pirates operated under an egalitarian system and shared loot evenly. Between 1716 and 1726, around 500 pirates were executed, and by 1730 piracy was virtually extinct. In the 1700s, trade in the Atlantic colonies became more complex as prosperity shifted. Economic growth increased due to improved information flow and more complex trade patterns. However, poverty also grew in urban areas due to reduced employment in winter months. Revivals preached the threat of impending doom to shock listeners into realizing their sinful ways, but revivals declined after a minister committed suicide in 1735.

American colonies
The document summarizes political, social, and economic developments in the Chesapeake colonies of Virginia and Maryland during the 17th century. It discusses how the wealthy planter elite came to dominate local and colonial politics by curbing the power of distant authorities. It also describes the demand for labor to support the tobacco economy, the use of indentured servants to fill this demand, and efforts to extract as much work from them as possible. Finally, it outlines how economic hardship and oppressive colonial government led to Bacon's Rebellion in Virginia in 1676.

Connecticut
Hartford has been the capital of Connecticut since 1875. Some key facts about Connecticut include its state bird is the robin, state insect is the praying mantis, and nickname of "The Constitution State." Agriculture is a major industry in the state and the state motto is "He who transplanted still sustains."
Unit 5.4 political reform
The old British electoral system was unfair, with only 400,000 of a population of 16 million able to vote in 1832. Rotten boroughs allowed landowners to choose MPs despite few or no residents. The Great Reform Act of 1832 expanded suffrage to more wealthy men and abolished rotten boroughs. However, the Chartist movement demanded further reforms, including universal male suffrage. Full male suffrage was achieved in 1884, while women obtained suffrage in the early 20th century due to activists like Emmeline Pankhurst.
Unit 5.5 law and order
The document summarizes law and order in Britain during the Age of Reform. Crime increased as cities grew and unemployment rose, centered in slum areas called "rookeries". Night watchmen and parish constables policed rural areas. In 1829, Sir Robert Peel established the Metropolitan Police Force to police London's streets. Crime rates decreased with expanded police forces by 1900. Prison reform efforts, led by Elizabeth Fry, sought to improve conditions for female prisoners at Newgate prison through schooling, work programs, and inspections. "Jack the Ripper" murdered five prostitutes in London in 1888 but was never identified.
Virginia qu
The first English colony in North America was established in 1606 at Jamestown, Virginia by the London Company. The colony struggled with hardships like attacks from the native Algonquian people and famine during the harsh winters. John Smith provided strong leadership and helped the colony survive during this time. In 1619, the first African slaves arrived in Virginia to work on tobacco plantations, which became a major cash crop. The capital moved from Jamestown to Williamsburg in 1699 due to better defenses and sanitation. Virginia became a royal colony in 1624 and the 10th state to ratify the US Constitution.
Theme 4 assign 2
The English established colonies in Virginia in the early 1600s, including the settlement of Jamestown on the James River. Tobacco became a very profitable crop for the Virginia colony, thriving in the hot, humid conditions. However, tensions arose between colonists and Native Americans as the colonists expected the Natives to provide them with food. The Chesapeake colonies, including Virginia, relied heavily on indentured servants and slave labor to work the tobacco fields under harsh conditions for the profitable crop. As slavery became more economically viable, planters began replacing servants with slaves on their plantations.
Union in peril
The document discusses the growing differences between the Northern and Southern states leading up to the Civil War. The North had become more industrialized and urbanized, relying on manufacturing, industry, and immigration. In contrast, the Southern economy was based almost entirely on agriculture and slave labor, with most people living on farms or plantations. These economic and demographic differences created increasing tensions between free and slave states over issues like the Missouri Compromise and the expansion of slavery into new territories, putting the Union in peril.
Frontiers of Change, 1865 1898
The document discusses westward expansion in the United States following the Civil War. It describes how the 1862 Homestead Act encouraged settlement by offering citizens parcels of free or low-cost land. The transcontinental railroad network expanded rapidly in the late 1800s, opening up the West to greater development. Cattle ranching became a major industry, with longhorn cattle driven north on trails like the Chisholm Trail to railheads and markets. Conflict increased with Plains Indians as settlers and the army seized more land, culminating in the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890 that marked the end of the Plains Indian way of life.
Americans move west
As more settlers moved West, three key developments transformed the landscape:
1. A mining boom brought growth to western towns, though mining was dangerous work.
2. The cattle industry created a short-lived "Cattle Kingdom" on the Great Plains, driven by demand for beef, before competition and new technologies ended it.
3. The transcontinental railroad connected East and West, spurring further population growth and economic development in the West.
Settling the West
The document provides details about the settling of the American West in the late 19th century, including the gold rush in Nevada, cattle ranching and drives, farming on the Great Plains, and conflicts with Native Americans. It describes how the discovery of gold and silver in Nevada led to a boomtown of 30,000 people in Virginia City almost overnight in 1859. Cattle drives along trails like the Chisholm Trail brought over 1.5 million head of cattle from Texas to Kansas between 1867 and 1871. Farming on the Great Plains was challenging due to lack of water and trees and threats of fires and grasshoppers but new technologies like barbed wire and steam-powered farming equipment enabled settlement.

The culture of the Plains Indians declined as white settlers transformed the Great Plains, pushing the Indians off their lands. Meanwhile, farmers formed the Populist movement to address their economic concerns arising from the settlement of the West. As settlers moved west and claimed more land, conflicts increased between Native Americans and settlers who wanted to own the land.

Miners and ranchers helped build the American West in the late 19th century. Miners flocked west during the Gold Rush, founding boomtowns when gold and silver deposits were discovered. The Comstock Lode silver deposit in Nevada transformed San Francisco and sparked a rush of over 30,000 people to Virginia City. Ranchers drove cattle on long trails from Texas to markets in Kansas, establishing the iconic cowboy culture and cattle towns along trails like the Chisholm Trail. However, the open range era ended when barbed wire was invented, allowing farmers to fence off their land.
Ch.16 the west ap
After the Civil War, settlers migrated westward hastened by the expansion of railroads. This period saw the widespread loss of lands and traditional way of life for many Native American tribes as farmers, ranchers, and miners moved onto the Great Plains, depriving them of hunting grounds and food sources. Hispanics already living in the Southwest also lost control of lands as Anglo-Americans established new farming and ranching operations. The economy of the West transitioned from mining and cattle ranching to commercial farming. Railroads played a key role in transporting cattle and settlers despite the hardships of settling the region.
Settling The West Review Student
The document summarizes the settlement of the American West between 1865 and 1890. It describes how the frontier pushed westward due to the Homestead Act, transcontinental railroad, mining, cattle ranching, and farming. It also discusses the subduing of Native Americans through broken treaties and warfare, which resulted in their confinement to reservations by 1890. The closing of the frontier by 1890 marked the end of an era in American history.
Settling the west
After the Civil War, settlers migrated west seeking opportunities in mining, ranching, and farming. Railroads facilitated this westward expansion.

Settling the west
After the Civil War, settlers migrated west seeking opportunities in mining, ranching, and farming. They faced many hardships on the frontier. Railroads accelerated western expansion by transporting settlers and goods. As settlers increasingly encroached on their lands, many Native American tribes lost their homelands and traditional way of life, often through broken treaties and armed conflict such as the Wounded Knee Massacre.
Westward expansion
Westward expansion from 1865 to 1914 led to significant changes across the United States. The discovery of gold in California in 1849 sparked the Gold Rush, drawing thousands of prospectors West in search of wealth. This period also saw the expansion of the cattle industry, growth of the railroad system, and an influx of homesteaders and immigrants seeking land and opportunity. However, westward settlement increasingly came into conflict with Native American tribes, leading to broken treaties, warfare, and the eventual confinement of most tribes to reservations by the late 19th century.

Unit 5 Notes
The document summarizes key events and developments related to westward expansion, mining, farming, and industrialization in the late 19th century United States. The transcontinental railroad opened up the west for large-scale settlement and transformed the nation into a single market. New mining towns boomed but then went bust. Farming on the plains was difficult due to weather, debt, and low crop prices. The growth of the steel industry supported industrialization, while new inventions in electricity transformed manufacturing and daily life. Immigration and urbanization increased rapidly during this period of massive economic and demographic change.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

- 3. End Of Indian Wars (Cont.) • When considering migration within the Us, the end of the Indian Wars helped spark a mass migration to the West. • No longer was there a threat to the settler's well being. • With the American Dream persuading them, the citizens saw no drawbacks to going West. • The population of California rose from 864,700 in 1890 to 1,485,100 in 1900 • That;s a 620,400 person increase
- 4. Barbed Wire • Barbed wire invented 1874 by Joseph Glidden • Especially useful in great plains area because there were no trees • As result, Great Plains fenced off
- 5. Barbed Wire and Cowboys • Cattle Drivers were especially hurt by barbed Wire • Since there were now rows of fences with with barbed wire, cattle couldn't graze freely • Cattle Drives were no longer possible • The invention of barbed wire ultimately meant the end for the cowboy
- 6. Railroads • The building of the railroads is naturally connected with the settlement of the West • Three natural resources were needed to prosper in new territory: land, water, and timber. • The Homestead Act of 1862 gave settlers 160 acres of free land, under certain conditions that encouraged settlement.
- 7. Railroads • The Pacific Railway Act of 1862 set the wheels of railroad expansion moving. The Land Grant System gave millions of acres to railroad builders. • Railroads enhanced the value of the land enormously. • Sale of extra land by railroad companies raised capital to finance railroad building. • In 1869. The first Transcontinental line was completed at Promontory, Utah • Railroad construction led to further settlement of the West • the railroad moved foods fast; ; reduced the $ of wheat; increased
