United States in the Years 1860-1870

The United States was confused between 1860 and 1870 between 1860 and 1870, but historically it was one of the most exciting eras of American history. In 1861 there were still 15 slave nations, 7 nations decided to open slavery by Dread Scott and there were only 8 free nations in the north (Ferre Atlas). This is an era of American economic growth and change. For example, in 1867, the United States purchased Alaska from Russia and spent only $ 7,200,000 (museum).

In the early 1860s, Europe and America pursued quite different trade policies. The 1960s is an era in which protectionism expands in the United States, the stage of free trade in Europe continued from 1860 to 1892. In 1875, the average tariff rate on imported goods in the United States reached 12%, from 40% to 50%, compared with 9% of the free trade period on continental Europe. Between 1850 and 1870, per capita GNP grew at a rate of 1.8%, 2.1% per annum between 1870 and 1890, and 2% between 1890 and 1910. The period of time during which the European countries followed the free trade policy (1870 - 1890)

Between 1820 and 1860, the American visual map changed due to unprecedented urbanization and rapid territory expansion. These changes pushed together for the Second Industrial Revolution, which peaked between 1870 and 1914. After consolidation of Texas (1845), British retreat from Oregon, and Guadalupe - Hidalgo treaty (1848), Mexico yielded Mexico southwest. In the United States, the expansion of the territory doubled the freedom of views of predators, European immigrants, industrial capitalists, and American indigenous people against the future of the American empire.
