In the south, slaves were used mainly for farming. The southern colonies' staple crop was rice. The middle colonies' staple crop was tobacco.
Slaves weren't needed. The reasons slaves were used in the south they had large plantations that needed people to work, plant, pick cotton, and do other things. The economy between the south and the north was totally different.
There were not enough people to work on the plantations in the Americas.
There were a lot more slaves in the South because Northerners were trying to get rid of slavery. It's where the slaves ran away to be free. In the South, 1/3 of the population were slaves. That's one of the main reasons they lost the Civil War, the blacks (as slaves) weren't allowed to bare arms. (: (I just learned this at school) lol
- South wanted the right to make their own decisions - North thought slavery was inhumane - South needed slaves for farming Was I any help? :)

It was manly the south that had slaves.

the north was opposed to slavery whereas slaves were very important for agricultural reasons in the south where huge plantations were popular. also, Abraham Lincoln freed them in the North.
slaves were used to complete the jobs of the white man. Slaves were used to cook, clean, pick cotton, grow crops, plant, sometimes used to entertain. Some female slaves were to take care of the white man's children or pets. etc
no they werent because the north and a south had a gentlemans agreement that if the south used their slaves the fight would be unfair and the south would win

You didn't have to pay slaves, so the cost of labor was lower.
