Conflicts over slavery significantly influenced North Carolina and the broader United States in the years leading up to the Civil War by intensifying regional divisions. In North Carolina, the economy relied heavily on agriculture, particularly tobacco and cotton, which fueled the demand for enslaved labor, leading to a complex relationship with abolitionist movements.

So, instead of taking in 11 million illegal immegrants like we do they used slavery to fuel there cotton buissness. By:Genious
