C) The invention of the printing press and improvements in literacy

Explanation:

ohannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 1430s. Until that moment, all the literary and printing were made manually. The spread of reading and knowledge across Europe turns into something speed and practical. When it comes to Protestant Reformation, the printing press became a useful tool to disseminate the new values, but especially to offer a considerable number of people, an easy reading content. Another important point about these new values was the need to offer the Bible in the common language. Since the rise of Christianity in the third century, the Bible and the cult celebrations were made in Latin, turning the understanding and the access very hard to a common population. From that moment, all the material would be printed to be easily understandable.

on this day in 1913, henry ford installs the first moving assembly line for the mass production of an entire automobile. his innovation reduced the time it took to build a car from more than 12 hours to two hours and 30 minutes.

here are some major conflicts i found. maybe pick one and do more research on it. (cause i ain't writing 6 paragraphs)

in 1877, the nez perce war took place.

1881 - president james garfield was assassinated.

1882 - the chinese exclusion act was passed.

1883 - a decision in the civil rights cases legalized racial segregation in the united states.

1887 - the dawes act was passed.

1893 - the panic of 1893 took place. (what a creative name)

and there are probably other topics you can find if you just search up "united states timeline," or "conflicts in the 19th century for america."

then once you find a topic you like find out how it affected the people of america and what not. (sorry if this feels a bit short changed, history was and never will be one of my strong topics)
