<p>The College Board will end up rescinding the MO Compromise question.</p>

<p>Why?</p>

<p>Well, it did delay the Civil War, per se, and it DID ban slavery above 36-30 UNTIL it was repealed later on.</p>

<p>ya, that is wrong...they had a big dispute over Tory's (loyalists) for several years</p>

<p>if the Missouri only worked for some time, i dont see why they could take both as correct answers, i think it was worded to say that the compromise completely got rid of slavery north of the line...which is wrong</p>

<p>And for the railroad/city one, it WAS Pittsburgh.</p>

<p>From Wiki:</p>

<p>"Pittsburgh was also a major hub of early railroad activity."</p>

<p>And it's just common sense because of the coal and steel.</p>

<p>I'm still going with Chicago. Was the Q time period specific?</p>

<p>the railroad question was Chicago, i agree.</p>

<p>I disagree with some of the questions on the list, anybody have any particular ones to bring up...and is that chat still going</p>

<p>Railroads put Chicago on the map. Not Pittsburgh.</p>

<p>im pretty sure it was Chicago too.</p>

<p>Georgia was used as a Buffer State against Spanish Florida</p>

<p>wat ones? kjklh</p>

<p>Wrong.</p>

<p>The canal system led to the growth of Chicago.</p>

<p>Pittsburgh, which is landlocked, is railroads.</p>

<p>Chicago was nothing before railroads, as they opened up the west...there werent many canals out that far, and Chicago wasnt much at that time. Pittsburgh was initially big on rivers, not railroads</p>

<p>Have you ever been to Pittsburgh, i can assure you it's not landlocked</p>

<p>"Thus began the next step in what would become massive early growth. Many factors contributed to that growth but early on the most important aspects could be attributed to Chicago's geographic proximity in an expanding nation. The city was the logical transportation link between eastern and western United States, using the Great Lakes and the river systems..."</p>

<p>these are the questions that should be eliminated lol</p>

<p>I disagee with the pacific indians one; it was hunting and fishing. I know I got the French colonies, indentured servants, and WWI wrong though.</p>

<p>I hated the Canadian colonies, indentured servants, and western NY expansion questions. I think I put lack of colonists, can't marry, and French + Indians, respectively.</p>

<p>EDIT: I also put hunting + fishing.</p>

<p>yes, i agree, hunting and fishing</p>

<p>Julina: I put the same, i think.</p>

<p>I just researched an Indian tribe called the Clatstop (sp?) on wiki and it said they hunted, gathered berries, and caught salmon...</p>

<p>Forgot to add...they lived in Oregon...aka the Pacific Northwest....</p>

<p>Whew, what a relief. I think we went over the bulk of the Qs on this test. The ones that we left out were prolly the easiest ones.</p>

<p>I still thinks its Pittsburgh and Chicago.</p>

<p>They needed railroads to ship steel and coal.</p>
