Mainly for cotton farming from the help of the cotton gin.
few or no enslaved people at all
Yes. That was what the war was about. Preceding the war, southerners had slaves and the northerners didn't think it was right. Therefore, the Civil War happened. Hope this helped! Mckennaj
Southern.
Southerners viewed slaves as property. The southerners defended this by saying that the Bible allowed for them to have slaves.
Most southerners wealth was tied around slavery. Down in the south they made money from the slaves farming and selling thier slaves.
They remained near the farms where they had been slaves
well, assuming "did" means to bread, slaves during the civil war had to get permission by their masters and have a child. Most likely the child would therefore belong to the master.
C.They put it back into their plantations and bought slaves.
Most southerners weren't for the war, they just wanted freedom from the North and the ability to own slaves. Less than 5% of the people in the South owned even a single slave. The South was agricultural and exports of agricultural products were taxed. The North was industrialized and the import of finished products was taxed. Before the Civil War 85% of the national budget was collected in the southern states.
there are many different answers to this question. most would argue that it is the problem with slavery at the time. true southerners would say it had more to do with rights of independent states. most southerners were so poor they could not afford slaves. after a while, states started seceding from the union, and opened fire on fort sumter, thus starting the civil war
Most southerners lived on plantations during the 1800's. As a result the South during the 1800's had a primarily agricultural based economy.
