Explanation:

During the 1800s a series of groups known as Farmer’s Alliances surfaced around the US, especially around the Midwest and Southern States. The main reason for the formation of these Alliances was that farmers were discontent because of the falling prices of crops and poor marketing and credit facilities. They began to compete in elections and were successful in regional victories but they never reached the national scale.
