User: what was the transportation revolution of the early 1800's?

Weegy: One of the most remarkable things about Americans, according to travelers from Europe in the first part of the 19th century, was how much they moved about. [ Not only did they routinely travel long distances to attend services in their churches and to shop in their markets, but they also changed residences almost as routinely. And not only did they invent new methods of transportation during the first half of the century, but they also made significant improvements in many of the old methods. Between 1800 and 1850 the physical territory of the United States had quadrupled in size; but measured in terms of travel time, the country had become much smaller.
