U.S History post-1877<\/p>\n
In 1877, congress resolved to end reconstruction and military support for the remaining Republican governments in the past government institutions. Congress decided to eliminate former slaves in the republic, depriving them of their rights and privileges. The ex-slaves were forced to live in preexisting conditions ranging from low-paying wage labor, especially domestic servants. However, the immigrants still found their entry to the United States for economic opportunity.<\/p>\n
Immigrants sought job hunting, and their native employers took advantage of the situation. Immigrants got peanuts in terms of their pay which was less than the rest of the workforce, and men got a larger share than women. The immigrants also experienced social tension, stereotyping, and discrimination. Immigrants also experienced physical and verbal abuse because of their indifferent nature (Mareis, 2015). However, the immigrants helped transform the American society and culture, and this, contrary to the treatment they received, demonstrated that diversity and unity are sources of strength.<\/p>\n
Expansion of agricultural lands led to unforeseen changes. The increase in immigrants led to an increase in farmers, which led to an increase in productivity. The country produced more than it could consume and exported the surplus to other countries (Mering, 1968). American agricultural productivity allowed America to remain a force to reckon with in the agricultural sector, becoming the world’s largest industrial producer.<\/p>\n
Civil war seemed to grace the world of small-scale farmers and business starters the values of less paid services, reduced teamwork, and liberty. Americans’ previous efforts to make their country standout made some of them believe that it paid off eventually in the industrial sector (Purmont et al., 1973). Other Americans, however, portrayed the prevailing economy as the ancient one, with faith that individuals would make the economy successful by working hard and making their ventures successful.<\/p>\n
American political system retreated to antimonopoly where farmers, small business people, and workers other corporations did not concur with the unanimously made agreement. They complained about the increase in the number of large organizations, which were synonymous with monopoly. Later, the antimonopolist system proved successful, with large factions created within both the Democratic and Republican Parties with other reforms. The majority of the measures established focused on merging or splitting the large existence of large organizations but enforced regulations to restrain them (Fredenburgh, 1949).<\/p>\n
The unprecedented wave of European migration provided the labor sector, a base necessary to increase industries and agriculture and caution the fast-growing Unites States populace. By the end of the 19 century, the states had experienced immense growth in industrialization, technology, and infrastructure.<\/p>\n
