Factor Explanation
Original Migration
Mormonism began in the eastern US, but believers migrated west to Utah, an area outside the authority of those who persecuted them.
Subsequent Migration
Mormon families grew and migrated throughout the region to farm new areas that could be cultivated in the intermountain West.
Lack of in-migration
During the 1880s – 1920 great wave of European immigration, no new immigrants with different religions came in to this region because of lack of urbanization.
Physical environment
Arid, rigorous climate with lack of water.
B. For ONE of these religious groups, first identify and then explain TWO factors that have influenced the distribution shown on the map.
Part B = 4 points2 factor points, and 2 explanation points
Factor Explanation
Original migration from northern and western Europe
1- German and Scandinavians migrated from Europe in large numbers, bringing with them their religion – Lutheranism.2 – Railroad companies and state governments recruited these groups to farm. Chain migration occurred as relatives continued to arrive.
Lack of later in-migrations of other religions
1 – Later groups from Europe (Jewish, Catholic, Orthodox) did not come, as the region lacked the pull of cities.2 – Upper Midwest did not attract rural to urban migration from the South during the 20th century because of the smaller number of cities.
B. For ONE of these religious groups, first identify and then explain TWO factors that have influenced the distribution shown on the map.
Part B = 4 points2 factor points, and 2 explanation points
Factor Explanation
Indigenous religion with origins in small towns and rural areas of the southeastern US.
1- Baptist religion matured as indigenous religion in the rural South. Based on Calvinism brought from Europe. No requirement for formally credentialed clergy.2 – Baptists appealed to African-Americans excluded from the main line Protestant denomination in the South.3 – Baptists included other groups that created locally specific church communities.
Lack of in-migration
Other groups of European immigrants with different religions were not attracted to this predominantly agricultural region.
• Map does not show small areas where other religions dominate.• Map does not show areas where density of adherents is really high.
Map gives greater importance to small populations.• Map makes much diversity and variation in religions.• Not able to view sub-county variation.• Map overgeneralizes.
