The Virginian settlement almost failed due to a combination of harsh conditions, conflicts with Indigenous peoples, and a lack of adequate food supplies and labor. The initial reliance on indentured servants proved insufficient to meet labor demands, prompting planters to adapt by increasingly turning to enslaved African labor. This shift allowed for the establishment of a race-based labor system, as enslaved individuals were considered property, providing a more stable and controllable workforce for the expanding tobacco economy. Over time, this system became deeply entrenched in the Southern economy and society.
