The Homestead Act primarily opened land to farming in **The West**. Enacted in 1862, the Act provided 160 acres of public land to settlers for a small fee, provided they improved the land by building a dwelling and cultivating crops. This initiative was aimed at encouraging westward expansion and settlement of the western territories of the United States.
