How did the cotton boom affect the economy and society of the South?
Late in the 18th century, slavery and cotton began to fade as an important economic factor for the south and the US as a whole. Cotton production was too labor intensive. This changed with Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin. This invention allowed for the manual seed plucking from the cotton plants to become "mechanized". More cotton could be produced over the same amount of land. European textile mills and New England mills also clamored for the crop. Cotton became a money making farm crop and enhanced the US's entire economy in the antebellum days. Demand remained high and the southern plantations expanded to meet that demand.

How might the banning of slavery have affected the souths economy?
It forced the cotton plantation owners (the South's biggest industry and export) to pay their (from now on) employees and allow them to leave if they wanted to. The South's economy was however most affected by the Civil War that had completely stopped the South's cotton export. At the end of the war the Southern States found that India and Egypt had in the meantime largely taken over the cotton market. The banning of slavery and the resulting rising of the cost of labor thus mainly added to the many economic problems the South faced as a result of the Civil War.
