Answer 1

The correct answer is: The creation of farmers groups to resist corporate control of agricultural markets.The excerpt describes the rapid industrialization and expansion of the railroad network in the Dakota Territory during the late 19th century. This led to the growth of towns and cities, the development of industries, and the transformation of the natural landscape into a productive agricultural region.The long-term result of these developments was the emergence of farmers' groups and movements that sought to resist the increasing control of agricultural markets by large corporations and railroad companies. These groups, such as the Farmers' Alliance and the Populist Party, advocated for policies like the regulation of railroads, the establishment of a more flexible monetary system, and the protection of small farmers from the dominance of big business.The other options, such as the growth of political tensions between the United States and Mexico, a conflict with Great Britain over the northern border of the United States, and a large-scale African American migration to the region, are not directly related to the developments described in the excerpt.
