Slavery continued in the South after the American Revolution due to economic dependence on plantation agriculture, particularly in the production of cash crops like cotton and tobacco, which required a large labor force. The social and political structures in the South also reinforced the institution of slavery, as many white Southerners viewed it as essential to their way of life and economic prosperity. Additionally, the lack of industrialization in the South compared to the North meant that slavery remained entrenched as a labor system. Efforts to abolish slavery were met with resistance, as many Southerners feared economic and social upheaval.
