Do you know what diplomatic development is?

anonymous · Answer

If author William Earl Weeks is to be believed, the frontier's effect on America's diplomatic activities was far from positive.

I think she means in general, not from a certain perspective ^

Farming on the Great Plains depended on a series of technological innovations. Lacking much rainfall, farmers had to drill wells several hundred feet into the ground to tap into underground aquifers. Windmill-powered pumps were necessary to bring the water to the surface and irrigate fields. Steel tipped plows were necessary to cut through the plains' grasses dense roots. To make up for a scarcity of farm labor, farmers relied heavily on mechanical threshing machinery.
