Cotton was crucial for both the North and South during the 19th century. For the South, it was the backbone of the economy, driving wealth and agricultural production, particularly through slave labor on plantations. The North, while not a primary cotton producer, relied on cotton for its textile mills, which fueled industrial growth and provided jobs.
