Plantations significantly shaped life in the 13 colonies, particularly in the Southern regions, where they became the backbone of the economy. They relied heavily on enslaved labor to cultivate cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo, leading to a hierarchical social structure that privileged wealthy plantation owners. This system also fostered a culture of racial inequality and oppression, as the reliance on enslaved Africans entrenched systemic racism. Additionally, the wealth generated by plantations influenced trade and economic relationships both locally and with Europe, shaping the colonies' development.
