The cotton gin was invented in 1793 by Eli Whitney and it resulted in the explosion of slavery and more cotton production. Because it could remove seeds from the fibers the southern planters were able to grow more cotton and produce more bales. Slavery grew and slaves became more valuable as a result. By 1835 over a million bales of cotton was baled each year by the southern states and sent to England for the textile mills. At the start of the civil war the southern planters thought the English would come to their aid because they needed the cotton, but the English warehouses were full and they didn't need them.
