Unit 4: Indiana Grows

Indiana's constitution did not allow slavery, but many Hoosiers wanted to end slavery in all states. Some people risked their lives to free enslaved people on the Underground Railroad. People in the South believed a state could make their own laws about any issue that was not covered in the U.S. Constitution, including slavery. Divisions between the North and the South led to the Civil War.

The South's greatest strength was its skilled soldiers. The North's strengths were its large population, its many factories, and its railroads which moved supplies and troops. Almost 200,000 Hoosiers fought in the Civil War including future President Benjamin Harrison. Indiana's Iron Brigade and the Fighting 28th Regiment made history on the battlefield.

During Reconstruction many African Americans became sharecroppers or moved to northern cities to work in factories. New technology during this time improved life for some. Railroads helped boost our state's economy creating thousands of manufacturing jobs. However, many people were forced to work long hours in unsafe conditions. The creation of labor unions helped to improve the working conditions in factories.
