The homestead act changed life in America by giving people the chance to get free shelter and farmland. The act was if you farmed there for five years the area would be yours. Unfortunately, only 15% of the homesteads actually worked and the news thad to find another place to I've or try again.

Transcontinental: Something that goes across continents
Homesteads:A piece governed by the homestead act.
Exodusters: These used to be slaves but faced discrimination in the East so they went to the Great Plains to take advantage of the homestead act and since they were former slaves they knew a lot about farming.
Drought: This happens when there is a lack of water and rain and it gets really dry
Homestead Act: The homestead act was an act that said if you got some land in the Great Plains and worked on it and built a house on it for 5 years you could own the land. You could also buy the land straight away.
Sodbusters: These busted sod to make good soil to plant crops. They also used sod to build houses. A problem was that bugs lived in the house's walls because the house was made out of sod. Sometimes bugs accidently buried through the wall and fell on to the floor.
Cattle Trail:There were tons of cattle in Texas. Meanwhile in the great plains many people decided not to farm crops because the soil was bad. They looked for other ways and decided to cattle farm. They brought cattle from Texas using cattle trails. The cattle traveled from barn to barn. Sometimes during the night they escaped. Cowboys took care of them as they traveled. If they were startled they might stampede. Being a cow boy was very dangerous. This created the urbanization of the great plains. Many big cities were built from cattle trails.
Barbed Wire: Before people had no Idea who's land was who's. Wooden fences could not be made because of the lack of trees. This was because the soil was bad and there were frequent droughts and tornadoes. Only grass could grow here. That's why they are called plains. There was lots of metal though. When the barbed wire was invented fences made out of this wire were very cheap. Also anyone trying to climb over these would be injured.

Transcontinental- Across the country Homestead- buy land to farm on for five years and then keep the land.
Exoduster- Former slaves who went to the west to farm
Drought- A long period of time with little water, or rain
Homestead act- This is a act when a bunch of people can come here and farm on it and thenn claim it
sod busters- people who break through dirt to find sod
cattle trails- This is trails that cattle make

Workers in America had very dangerous jobs. Boys would lose fingers or limbs in conveyor belts or other dangerous machinery. Match girls could lose teeth from the chemical they would dip the matches into. Breaker boys could get lung cancer or the disease that turns your lungs black. Their fingers would get scratched and they could lose limbs in the conveyor belt.

# data[].attributes.body
The conveyor belt was both a helpful and harmful invention. First of all it helped mass produce products and made products super cheap. They also helped consumers get their goods without spending all their money. But there was a big downside. They needed workers to work the conveyor belts. This made millions of children work in factories when they should be learning stuff in school. Most kids did not even know what 3 x 3 is equal to. They only knew how to make goods to make money so they did not starve to death. Since conveyor belts were moving their limbs or other body parts could get stuck and pulled off. Even after this they still had to work until their job was done. Their job was 18 hours a day. They did not even get any shifts or even a lunch break.  Even after all of this hard, dangerous and long work the average pay check was 30 cents a week. This is why everybody in the family worked. Families stopped having children to save them from working like this. If they even a tiny bit wrong or slept late or even complained they would be fired. I mean seriously, freedom of speech is a thing. The bosses are all hypocrites.

The transcontinental railroad made it possible for large migrations to the west. In 1910 all of the biggest cities were in the east. But soon when the trans-continental railroad came into being suddenly all the biggest cities moved to the west. By 2010 only 3 bug cities were in the east.  Why did all these cities pop up at that time? Well the trans-continental railroad was already there, they just need something to push people there. There were lots of things pulling people there. The problem: It was just too hot. Soon air conditioning was invented. Suddenly people moved to the west at lightning speed using the trans-continental railway. If there was no trans-continental railway it would take a long time for them to them get there and many people would not have moved to their dream world.  The west gained 88 seats in the house of representatives in 1960. This changed the electoral votes in the presidential election. If the trans-continental railroad, gold in California, the homestead act and air conditioning combined weren't invented,  then Al Gore might of been elected president.

The homestead act was an act that said if you got some land in the Great Plains and worked on it and built a house on it for 5 years you could own the land.  You could also buy the land so you could own it right away. Most of the people who farmed the land were former slaves. The other people left because the soil was bad for growing plants and had very little nutrition. They could not farm plants and had to farm cows. This started the process of building cattle trails and urbanization in the great plains. Many big cities were built from cattle trails. This was negative to Native Americans and there were many wars and battles in this area. The Native Americans lost all of the wars and were forced to give up their land to the Americans and go live in reservations. These reservations were very different to where they normally live so they weren't adapted and died. This changed the face of America.
