Northern colonies began to outlaw slavery for a few reasons, including moral objections to the institution of slavery, economic shifts towards industrialization that diminished the reliance on slave labor, and the growing abolitionist movement that gained momentum in the North. Additionally, some northern states found that the practice of slavery was not as profitable or sustainable in their region compared to the southern states due to differences in agriculture and climate.

In contrast, slavery in the northern colonies was less widespread and primarily focused on domestic service or skilled labor, as the northern economy was more diverse and not as reliant on slave labor for agricultural production. Additionally, attitudes towards slavery in the northern colonies were generally more mixed compared to the southern colonies where it was widely accepted and supported.
