Heating clay and sand at high tempatures

What’s the question

The challenge that Raleigh faced after becoming the state capital at the turn of the 19th century was that it struggled to support the needs of a rapidly growing population.

Explanation:

After having two distinct predecessor capitals, Raleigh was chosen to be the new state capital by the state legislature in 1788. The official establishment of Raleigh as the capital of the state was done in the year 1792.At the time of its establishment as the state capital, the city hosted negligible amenities that need to be existent in order to serve a huge population, given the fact that it would be a densely populated city within a few years because it had now been chosen as the new capital of the state.Hence, the city initially struggled to support the needs of the population that was growing at a great pace.
