This video is created for the Humanities (HSS 205) Class "Technology & American Society" at Northeastern Technical College. In Part 7: "Regionalism and Westward Migration The Midwest," instructor J. Michael Jeffries describes the impact of Regionalism and Westward Migration on the American landscape of the Midwest. As more peoples immigrated to the United States the line of expansion progressed farther west. Settlers carried with them the regional ideas and expanded on them to adapt to the damp and cold climate of the Midwest. The Midwest developed to use mechanized farming equipment conducive to large scale agriculture, particularly grains, and had little to no use for slave labor. For further reference please see Frederick Jackson Turners "The Frontier in American History" (1893).
