Why is there no railroad mileage in the Pacific region in 1850? Few people lived in the Pacific region in the 1850s. The United States did not own any territory along the Pacific in the 1850s. This region had few resources, so there was no incentive to build a railroad.

There was no railroad mileage in the pacific region in 1850 because of the lack of people, they could not get their supplies to the location. Thus, option 'A' is the correct option.

Railroad building in the United States greatly surged starting in the early 1870s. Approximately 45,000 miles of track had been built before 1871. A further 170,000 miles were added to the expanding railroad network of the country between 1871 and 1900. The construction of the transcontinental railways is responsible for a large portion of the expansion. The Pacific Railway Act, approved by Congress in 1862, gave the go-ahead for the building of a transcontinental railroad.

On May 10, 1869, the first railroad of this type was finished. Four more transcontinental railroads connected the Pacific Coast and the eastern states by 1900. Smaller railroads had to buy the land from private landowners, some of whom objected to the railroads and refused to grant rights of way, in order to build their tracks there.

Read the passage below and answer the question.
"If a man gives his wife a field, garden, and house with a deed – and if then after the death of her husband the sons make no claim – then the mother may bequeath all her assets to the one of her sons whom she prefers, and leave nothing to his brothers.
If this woman does not wish to remain in her husband's house, then he shall compensate her for the dowry that she brought with her from her father's house, and she may go. A man may take a wife, but she bears him no children, and he intends to take another wife. If he takes this second wife, and brings her into the house, the second wife shall not be equal to his first wife."
