The Jungle exposed the terrible situations of the meatpacking industry, brought it to the limelight what was really happening when the government didn't step into businesses. It shadowed a hard working immigrant family and the struggles they faced when coming to America. One of the biggest things it brought to light was the terrible situations seen at a meat packing facility. It also brought up numerous other issues, such as the circumstances employees had to work in, prostitution, and immigration. Although this was a fictional story it was based in reality for a working family. It became widely widespread and people called for change. Sinclair wrote it in hopes that more people would become social democrats. He said 'I aimed at the public's heart and by accident, I hit it in the stomach'. He may not have had as big of an impression as he had expected, but he did get the American people up in arms that Congress passed a bill within weeks to try and talk some of the issues that people saw in The Jungle. This is one of many things that Progressives sought to achieve.

answer: secession

secession, as it applies to the outbreak of the american civil war, comprises the series of events that began on december 20, 1860, and extended through june 8 of the next year when eleven states in the lower and upper south severed their ties with the union. the first seven seceding states of the lower south set up a provisional government at montgomery, alabama. after hostilities began at fort sumter in charleston harbor on april 12, 1861, the border states of virginia, arkansas, tennessee, and north carolina joined the new government, which then moved its capital to richmond, virginia. the union was thus divided approximately on geographic lines. twenty-one northern and border states retained the style and title of the united states, while the eleven slave states adopted the nomenclature of the confederate states of america.
