<p>i said chicago because weren't they building one up to Illinois...or was that just some random thing I thought I heard</p>

<p>and yeah lewis and clark was helping set up for future expansion, because it gave us claims to the Oregon territory later on</p>

<p>lol i just randomly guessed on that and said illinois</p>

<p>so MtL07...what do you think you got?</p>

<p>I'm hoping for something around 750, I know I got 3-4 wrong so far</p>

<p>Chicago was the site of the world's first skyscraper, and today is the architectural, financial, and cultural capital of the Midwest and transportation center of the country, with more rail lines and interstates radiating from the city than any other city in the country....The city was the logical transportation link between eastern and western United States, using the Great Lakes and the river systems, and (after 1850) the railroads. The opening of the Illinois and Michigan Canal in 1848 allowed shipping from the Great Lakes through Chicago to the Mississippi River. The first rail line to Chicago, the Galena & Chicago Union Railroad, was completed the same year. These projects foreshadowed Chicago's eventual development into the transportation hub of the United States.</p>

<p>also from wikipedia....who knows</p>

<p>Yea but I think it was asking about which one grew specifically b/c of the railroad, and Pitt was nothing before the railroad, and Chicago had the Canal beforehand so it was already fairly large, I dono</p>

<p>Yes Baby. Go Chicago!!!</p>

The policy that didnt show inc power in govt was treaty making, since that already existed before, and how wouldnt a draft inc the power in federal govt

[/quote]

I also chose this answer based on the reasoning that the power to declare war and make treaties alreay resided in the government. A shift to the executive branch doesn't increase the power that was already in the government to start with.</p>

<p>What was the pennsylvania one ?</p>

<p>factions undermining religious something or other</p>

<p>Factions undermined religion or something</p>
