Hudson Mcdonald · Answer 2

A. There is as available land.

Explanation:

After the Civil War came to Reconstruction, this made able the completion of the railroads that led to the West.

This opened vast areas to people to settle and develop. There was available land which caught the attention of African American settlers, White settlers, and others.

The Homestead Act passed in 1862 that allowed people to settle on empty land on the West without paying it. The government was interested in populating the West so the place could develop.
