Once Minnesota became a state in 1858, it was quickly settled by German, English, and Scandinavian immigrants. The fur and lumber trades, which had predominately run Northern territory economics, were replaced by iron mining in the north, wheat milling in central Minnesota, and farming in the south. With the rise of wheat milling came the Twin Cities, Minneapolis and St. Paul, positioned between the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers.

The Great Migration and/in the Congregation The Great Migration was the migration occurred within the United States between 1910 and 1970 which saw the displacement of about seven million African Americans from the southern states to those in the North, Midwest and West. The reasons that led thousands of African Americans to leave the southern states and move to the northern industrial cities were both economic and social, related to racism, job opportunities in the industrial cities and the search of better lives, the attempts to escape racism and the Jim Crow Laws that took them away the right to vote. As every social phenomena, the Great Migration had both positive and negative effects; in my opinion the Great Migration can be considered a negative development in the short and medium term, but, if we analyze the benefits brought to the African-American communities in the long term, their fight for integration has shaped the history of the United States in its progress to democracy and civil rights.
