Trivia about American economics and politics in the 19th century.
In the 19th century, California ranked less than the top 10 in the U. S. Economic and population rankings. During this period, the Great Lakes region in the eastern United States, Ohio, Illinois, New York, and Pennsylvania were the core and essence of the United States. These states could be said to be must-win areas for American politicians and political parties at that time. In the 19th century, the main industrial types in the United States were the second industrial revolution, such as textile industry, steel and oil industry, shipping industry, railway industry, and mining industry. The status of the western United States at this time was very low. First, it was underdeveloped. After all, the United States only began to expand to the west in the mid-to-late 19th century. At this time, technological progress overwhelmed the Indians and began to massacre them. At this time, the western United States was the richest in history. The four people are basically the four giants of the California railroad. The most famous of them is Leland Stanford, the founder of Stanford University. He is also the capitalist who is now said on the Internet to use Chinese bones to build the railway. But he is only one of them. There are a total of four people who did this. He is only one of them. Their main achievement was to build the Central Pacific Railway that connected the east and west. This railway connected the east and west at that time. The American Railways can be said to be the most profitable railway, because at that time the railways received subsidies from local state governments and the US central government. Not only is the railway construction tax-free, but the surrounding hundreds of acres of land also belong to the railway company, plus the freight is guaranteed to be profitable. The protagonist's growth space in the west is not as good as that in the east. Mainly in terms of politics and economy at this time, the west is at a disadvantage in terms of votes and population, and even industry is at a disadvantage. The west does not have the most important coal and iron ore concentration areas in the second industrial revolution, and the resources in the west are relatively scattered. The main steel and coal in the United States are concentrated in the Great Lakes region, such as cities such as Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Cleveland. If the West wants to become a capitalist, it is very difficult for capital giants to establish consortiums during this period. It is best to develop toward the East. The East has the advantages of the East, and the West has the advantages of the West. The advantage of the east is that the raw materials of the second industrial revolution are concentrated, and the population and capital have greatly increased. The disadvantage is that there are old family forces, such as the local wealthy families of the founding fathers of the United States. Historically, American capitalists such as Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie basically killed local wealthy families whose interests conflicted with their own in the competition. It would be very difficult for the protagonists to make a fortune in the west, mainly because of industrial problems. The protagonist of the 19th and even 20th centuries was Europe. Therefore, it was the golden city period in the eastern part of New York in the United States, while the western part was relatively poor. A lot. At that time, the main way to make money in the west was to sell raw materials, silver, gold, and oil to the capitalists in the east. There were no Western oil tycoons in history. The main reason was the transportation problems in the United States at that time. At that time, you could not beat others in the railway transportation price war. The second reason was. Oil was a novel industry at the time and there were not many competitors. This was why Rockefeller was able to succeed. Otherwise, he might not have succeeded. U. S. Oil was mainly concentrated in four states: California, Texas, Alaska, and Louisiana. Medium and large oil fields are concentrated in these four states, but in fact, the oil fields in the United States at that time were basically in the central and eastern regions. The reason for the amount of oil used was pitiful compared to now. The small and medium-sized oil fields in the eastern and central parts were enough. Before the opening of the Panama Canal, it was very inconvenient to travel to the western and eastern parts of the United States. Transportation costs were very high and rail transportation was not cheap. Shipping is also quite far, and the time the protagonist travels through is too awkward. The God of Cooking is too low. In the 19th century, ethnic racial discrimination was divided into hierarchies, even among white people. The highest levels were British and French. The protagonist's surname is Dupont, so he should be a white French man. In the 19th century, hairpins could not be diverse, but could only monopolize an important industry. For example, after the Rockefeller monopoly, Vanderbilt controlled more than 40% of the railroads in the United States. It was taboo to enter different industries during this period, unless you were a banker. The protagonist travels back in time for more than a year, and the American Civil War is about to begin. The protagonist can take the opportunity to stock up on food, or stock up on cotton in Europe. The cotton supply of the southern United States, which supplied at least half of the world at that time, disappeared with such a large gap. The protagonist who cannot make up for it in a short time can hoard it in Europe and take the opportunity to sell it to British or French textile capitalists to make a fortune. Or in the history of firefighting, Rockefeller's first pot of gold was earned by hoarding grain as a deserter during the Civil War. Personally, I recommend that the main character's sweat should be mainly railway oil. As for ore, it is difficult to say that there are no concentrated iron ore and coal mines in the West. There are no large-scale coal mines and iron ore concentration centers in California, so it is difficult for the steel industry to develop. The West was initially dominated by oil. The protagonist first had to go through a series of competitions to become the largest capitalist in California, and then began to propose to Lincoln's Republican Party to build the historical Central Pacific Railway. This railway can be said to be a sure profit. Generally speaking, I took a rough look at the author's historical information but couldn't find it. It is recommended that it be better to take a look. During this period, the Boston Consortium could even rank among the top three consortiums in the United States. The main reason was that other consortiums had not yet been formed or even established. Historically, 60 to 70 percent of American talent was formed after the Civil War.
I write here and there and have no idea what I am writing.
For the first book, try to write 500,000 words. The next book will be easier to write.
I thought I was reading a synopsis of the plot. There was no foreshadowing or description. I just pushed the plot along the way.
Some questions about this book
The first is the problem of Andrew Carnegie. Andrew Carnegie only resigned from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company from 1860 to 1870 to start his own business. Before that, he could only be said to be a middle-level executive of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and Andrew Carnegie did not have a son. When he died, he only had one daughter, and that daughter may not even be 10 years old. This was the main reason why he was willing to sell the steel company to Morgan in history. Women in that era did not have the right to inherit property, at least according to the law at that time. Moreover, in the episode where it was very difficult to rob someone by force, I was probably worried that my daughter would die because of the huge wealth he left behind after his death. 2The second one is why the protagonist in California suddenly ran to California. What does the protagonist think? If it is DuPont. The protagonist's background is not low. Even a branch of the Dupont family should have a wealth of several thousand dollars at least. The Dupont family came to the United States after the French Revolution and had certain contacts with American political parties. It was he who persuaded Napoleon to sell France's North American colonies to the United States. The protagonist's home base should be the Midwestern part of the United States, such as Kansas. Don't think that the western part of the United States does not have cliques. In fact, ethnic cliques are also practiced in the west. For example, the Irish and Italians, secondly, the positioning of California itself was not good, and it was difficult to hairpin in the 19th and early 20th centuries. First, the gold competition had entered its final stage in 1860, and secondly, there were no large-scale iron ore and coal gathering areas in the mineral west, and there was no transportation, so it simply could not compete with the eastern United States. It can be said that the evolution of the United States in the 19th and early 20th centuries has been all about the thirteen states of North America and the Great Lakes region. As for the establishment time of the Western United States, it was the end of the 19th century or even the beginning of the 20th century. The population can be imagined, and using California as a base camp is not a particularly good thing. The old earthquake in California. It can be said to be the state with the most frequent earthquakes in the United States, especially the California earthquake that shocked the entire United States in the early 20th century. 3. Does the protagonist have no family or relatives of his own? If the protagonist is from the Dupont family, he can go to the east to gather his family. At this time, the second industrial revolution has not yet begun. You can get the first pot of gold during the Civil War and enter the steel industry or oil industry. If you enter the steel industry. It was to use the latest steel production technology and study chemistry, because at that time the entire steel industry did not recognize chemistry and believed that it had nothing to do with chemistry. It was possible to obtain the best quality iron ore in the United States in advance in Minnesota. Rockefeller used this iron ore to dominate Carnegie. With the advantages of cost, coal mines and iron ore, the protagonist could at least become a steel giant, and then began to contact members of the DuPont family through his own blood relationship to come and serve. These family members may not necessarily have the strongest abilities, but they must have a central relationship with the protagonist. The DuPont family did not change it until after World War II. 4. No matter how well the protagonist develops in the west, what's the use? It's too late for development now and not enough to get started. Funds, the protagonist's mining in the west are of no use. At that time, the ore was not valuable at all. Britain and France both had their own colonies. The industrial output at that time did not require so many mines at all. In addition, American coal and iron ore were concentrated in the Great Lakes and their quality and transportation were very convenient. Such minerals in the west were not very competitive. Secondly, oil transportation was a problem. Oil transportation from east to west in the United States was not smooth until the opening of the Panama Canal. At most, it could monopolize the western market, but the western market was simply incomparable to that of the eastern United States. At that time, 60 to 70% of the national power of the United States was supported by the eastern industrial states, both in terms of population and economy.
The protagonist traveled through time and became a white man? Or were you originally white before time travel?
In the desert of law, if you want to achieve great things, you need organization, goals, and methods. To make the book beautiful, you need some interesting details and ups and downs.
