North Social Criterion 1: Explain the working life in the North. The working life in the North was not what you would expect. The children worked at ages of 10 and older unless they were in school. They worked long and hard hours and didn’t get a lot of money. It was very hard to make living with what they had to do and how much they were paid. Political Criterion 2: What facts can you gather about the workers strikes in the North? Workers on strike refused to work until the employers met their demands. Most of their earlier strikes weren’t successful. Courts and police usually supported companies, not striking union workers. You ask why because they worked long and hard hours and got little pay. This caused a economic decline in the work businesses that the politicians had to clean up. Economic Criterion 3: What effect did technology have on the economy? Technology was a big hit back then; it caused us to see how it felt to be on the luckier side. We had more jobs available and the old way of living was rapidly changing because of the new industry in the north. But with new technology, there is always a disadvantage. In this case it was having the Northern states centered on one industry. This normally causes a rapid decline in the economy based on how many jobs are open and how many families need to be fed. When we don’t have multiple industries we lose jobs and money there aren’t any jobs available and we fail as a United Country in the north. South Social Criterion 1: What can portray about southern life and social classes. I can understand that it was probably very hard down there. I can also see why they used the slaves to do their work but that doesn’t necessarily mean I agree with it. They didn’t have what we have here they were less fortunate in every way. A good connection for this would us and parts of Africa. Political Criterion 2: What can you infer about the Nat Turner Rebellion? Nat turner believed that god told him he was supposed to end slavery. He met up with other slaves with a total around sixty and they started a rebellion. Nat turner led his men and killed sixty white men. He was finally captured after being able to escape several times. He accepted his death but hoped he would inspire other slaves. Economic Criterion 3: How did the invention of the Cotton Jin effect the South? It made picking cotton a lot easier. It made less work for the slaves. It created many cotton mills and opened lots of new jobs too.
