What was the effect of Eli Whitneys invention of the cotton gin?
When Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin, it made it possible to grow short staple cotton throughout the southern part of the United States. Cotton replaced linen as the material to wear in the summer. Since cotton required a long growing season, it became a major crop for the South. Since it was labor intensive, slaves were the preferred source of labor. Since it required so much water, the South was one of the few places on earth where it could be grown in commercial quantities. As a result, slave owners considered slaves necessary. Thus, it maintained the institution of slavery. (It would be around 1900 before a commercially successful cotton picking machine would be created.)
