How did the fight for land and resources unfold in the american west? what was the role of the railroads and how did they affect western settlement?

It made the west part of the united states

Explanation:

Independence movements separating states from mexico eventually led to the US taking over.

The Homestead Act of 1862 promised free land to citizens or prospective citizens. Hundreds of thousands moved west in hopes of striking gold, and to exploit natural resources and labor. Cattle ranchers followed railroads to establish grazing kingdoms. Agriculture became a big business because of the railroads. Agricultural land became commercialized. Western governors were corrupt or turned a blind eye to corruption which allowed mine owners, big ranchers, and lumber companies to take advantage of risky opportunities in the West. They allowed goods produced in the west, especially agricultural products like wheat, to be shipped to eastern markets, while also allowing eastern settlers to quickly move into unsettled lands in the west. As such, more settlers out west farming more land and sending farm products eastward caused more people to move west and more development of land out west. Additionally, western railroads allowed other natural resources to be mined in the West and shipped back to the factories in the east, including lead from the Colorado mines and silver from mines from Nevada. Products were transported across the continent in a shorter time frame.

Explanation:

especially research the treaty of greenville and the treaty of colerain in washington's administration.   also research at least one significant treaty from the administrations of adams, jefferson, and madison. tell the outcome of each treaty and how it did or did not in the further development of the west.

treaty of greenville (1814) the treaty of greenville (1814) was called a treaty of peace and friendship between the united states of america and the tribes of native americans called the wyandots, delawares, shawanoese, senacas and miamies.

the treaty of colerain was signed at st. marys, georgia in camden county, georgia, by benjamin hawkins, george clymer, and andrew pickens for the united states and representatives of the creek nation, for whom indian trader langley bryant served as an interpreter, on june 29, 1796, proclaimed on march 18, 1797, and codified as 7 stat. 56. colerain was a small community and the site of a u.s. indian factory founded by james seagrove.  

this treaty affirmed the binding of the treaty of new york (1790). the treaties of hopewell and the treaty of holston (1791) established boundary lines between the choctaws, chickasaws, cherokee, and the u.s. the treaty of colerain bound the creek nation to acknowledge the boundaries established in those treaties.  

it also established the boundary line between the creek nation and the united states. at the time of this treaty, the boundaries between spanish florida and the u.s. had not yet been established. this treaty formally allowed the creek chiefs to acknowledge the negotiation for delineating the georgia-florida boundary with spain.  

the treaty contained a provision that the president of the u.s. may establish a trading or military outpost.  

the united states demanded that the creeks give up their american prisoners and also return all "citizens, white inhabitants, negroes and property" taken by the creeks.  

the treaty describes when it would take effect. after the treaty had been signed but not yet promulgated, the u.s. senate requested modification of two articles of the treaty. the first modification stipulated that the military or trading posts would be under the control of the united states. the second modification stipulated that if the u.s. no longer required the use of those posts, the locations would revert to the creek people.  

frederick william of brandenburg-prussia trained his son, frederick, to be a hardy soldier. but frederick disliked rifle shooting and horseback riding. unlike his father, he was interested in french literature. he enjoyed poetry and music and, like some others of the enlightenment, he scoffed at religion. his father thought him soft, frivolous and unmindful of his duties. and when frederick refused to put his signature on a right to succession, for a few moments his father strangled him.
