Who was in South Carolina before the colonists?
Native Americans such as the Cherokee tribe in the northwestern mountains and the Cheraw and Catawba tribes closer to the coast.
Did South Carolina become a slave state?
No Slavery has not been abolished in South Carolina or the United States of America for that matter. The 13th Amendment is often misquoted or not quoted at all. The 13th Amendment allows for slavery and involuntary servitude as punishment for crime and immediately following its passage in 1865, laws like the Black Codes were passed and prisons started filling up with formerly enslaved Africans and they would be leased back out to plantations and other businesses under the Convict Leasing program. Today, just as was the case prior to the passage of the 13th Amendment, Wall Street is heavily invested in private prisons for profit and corporations like the Corrections Corporation of America have contracts with States to keep the prison above 90% full and the United States of America imprisons/enslaves more people than any country on earth including countries that the American people are told do not have freedom and liberty and are oppressed. Slavery was never abolished because if it were, there would be no slavery exception clause in the 13th Amendment or any of the State Constitutions. If anyone tells you it has, they are either ignorant of what the language of the 13th Amendment means or they are deliberately lying.

Why did South Carolina and the Deep South secede from the Union?
The "so-called" United States seemed to be getting extremely divided as the country grew more organized. The south had apparently had enough during the early 1860's decided to secede from the Union and be known as their own country, the Confederate States of America. Although the U.S. had separated from Great Britain as one, the country had experienced many hardships concerning Economics, Politics, and the oh-so sensitive issue of slavery, dividing it into two entities that would soon be at war.
