One way southern and northern societies differed in the 1800s was their economic dependence on slavery. The southern economy was heavily reliant on slave labor for agriculture, while the northern economy was more industrialized and did not depend on slavery.
The southern states used unpaid labor, slavery, for their businesses. With no labor costs, they were able to make hefty profits.
Generally speaking, the slavery in the South and its agrarian economy led to its downfall. The North had good farmland and did not depend on slave labor.

Being a state that was basically run off agriculture and farming, the south were very dependant on its labour, for if there was no labour there would be no money and if there was no money there was no economy. Slavery played a massive role (well realistically the only role) in the southern economy.
