Answer 15

I am avalible for 10 more minutes.. I'm Erin.. Ok so why do you think that preserving the union and creating railroads is important?

Answer 16

because if we didn't have the union then the nation would fall apart and if we didn't have railroads to connect us then their would be no real nation and we'd proly all be like different types of "tribes" i guess instead of moving around and discovering different types of people like Native Mexicans Blacks and Whites and intermarrying and other stuff guess

Answer 18

Well, not really.. I would say that Railroads were important because back then it would take a very long time to travel,and many people died during long trips, and because of railroads.. we could extend civilization and towns and other things to places we never could before ( such as areas with not enough supplies.. we could now ship them supplies by train)
