Southern farms in the 1800s were predominantly characterized by large plantations that relied heavily on slave labor for agricultural production. Crops such as cotton, tobacco, and rice were the mainstay, contributing significantly to the economy of the region. The social structure was hierarchical, with wealthy plantation owners at the top and enslaved people at the bottom, creating a deeply entrenched system of inequality. Life on these farms was grueling for enslaved individuals, marked by long hours of labor and harsh living conditions.
