Nat Turner's revolt in 1831 instilled deep fear among white southerners, leading to increased paranoia about slave uprisings. In response, many states tightened slave codes, further restricting the rights and movements of enslaved people. The revolt also intensified the pro-slavery stance among whites, as they sought to justify and strengthen the institution of slavery as a means of maintaining control and order. Overall, it heightened sectional tensions and contributed to the growing divide between the North and South.
