Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
There were at least three economic factors that played a part in establishing African slavery in the United States: the need for a large number of laborers to work plantations, the tariff policy that increased the price of manufactured goods, and the agricultural nature of the South's economy. Plantations required a much larger number of workers than could be supplied locally, and slaves were imported to fulfill that need.
