Respuesta :

Thanks to the transcontinental railway speeding up white settlement in the west, c. ten territories became states between 1864 and 1896.

The transcontinental railway allowed for white populations in the west to increase because it made travel so much more cheaper, faster and more convenient.

This allowed territories to have enough white people to apply for statehood such as:

  • The Dakotas
  • Colorado
  • Idaho
  • Wyoming

There were 6 other states as well which is why we can conclude that the transcontinental railway allowed for the creation of these states.
