Q

How did John Jay and Thomas Pinckney shape American foreign policy?

A

Both of them negotiated treaties with foreign countries. In Jay’s treaty with Britain, the British had to give up their forts on American soil.

Q

How did industrialization affect the ways in which people lived and worked in the U.S?

A

It changed the dynamic of the way the people lived and relied on products and income. Machines increased the pace of work and divided labor into many small tasks done by separate workers. This process reduced the amount of skill and training required for individual jobs. Factory owners benefited because untrained workers were more numerous and less costly to employ. In some trades, owners achieved those benefits without adopting new machines.
