The document provides information about life in the North and South before the Civil War. In the North, many Irish and German immigrants moved to cities for factory jobs after famines and wars in their home countries. Factories lacked safety regulations, so children and families often worked long hours. In the South, the economy depended on cotton plantations that utilized slavery. The invention of the cotton gin increased demand for slaves to pick cotton. Enslaved people endured harsh conditions and could be sold away from their families. Some risked escaping along the Underground Railroad, but the Fugitive Slave Act required their return if caught in free states.

Ch15sec2 notes
The Underground Railroad was a network that secretly helped slaves escape to freedom by guiding them along stations at safe houses and churches run by abolitionists. Harriet Tubman escaped slavery herself and then returned 19 times to lead over 300 slaves to freedom through the Underground Railroad. White northerners and southerners opposed abolishing slavery due to economic concerns - northerners relied on southern cotton and workers feared job competition from freed slaves, while southerners defended slavery as essential to their economy and way of life.
Medieval Europe Lesson 2 - Manorialism
Feudalism and the manor system developed in response to dangerous conditions in medieval Europe. Under the manor system, lords owned land and provided protection to serfs, who lived and worked on the lord's land. Serfs were required to give a portion of their produce to the lord and work the lord's fields before tending their own. They also needed the lord's permission to leave the manor. Lords spent their time providing security and justice, and many trained as professional warriors called knights. The manor system organized self-sufficient communities with obligations between lords and serfs.
Why War Haapens
The Gulf War of 1991 cost $40 billion to wage. However, the US and oil companies profited greatly from the war through increased oil prices. Higher oil prices generated an extra $60 billion in profits, with $30 billion going to oil companies and $30 billion to Arab governments. Most of the $30 billion in oil company profits went to American oil companies and the US government, totaling around $21 billion in profits for the US. Additionally, the $40 billion spent on the war went to the American war industry. So the US ended up profiting around $11 billion from increased oil prices and $49 billion from weapons sales, showing that the Gulf War was motivated by financial interests rather than humanitarian concerns.

Chapter 13 the south
The cotton industry grew dramatically in the Southern states after the American Revolution. Cotton had been grown for centuries but was unprofitable until Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1793, which quickly and efficiently removed cotton seeds. Demand for cotton increased from textile factories, and it soon became the primary cash crop in the South. The cotton boom led to the expansion of slavery as more hands were needed to pick the cotton. By 1860, the South was producing over 1 billion pounds of cotton annually, making the region a major global supplier and further entrenching the slave-based plantation economy.
US History - Slavery Essay
The document discusses slavery in the United States between 1800-1850. It notes that slavery was already present in the 1700s but increased dramatically in the late 18th century. The invention of the cotton gin in 1793 made cotton farming highly profitable and increased demand for slave labor. Over 1 million slaves were transported from older slave states to new states in the South to work on cotton plantations. This led to debates between abolitionists who opposed slavery and slave owners who argued slaves benefited from being cared for. The tensions ultimately led to the Civil War.
Week 2
Many European immigrants came to America in search of education and opportunity during this time period. One such immigrant, Samuel Slater, built the first cotton spinning mill powered by water in New England. This increased demand for raw cotton in the South. Plantation owners relied on slave labor to harvest and process cotton, as it was a labor intensive crop. Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin in 1793 revolutionized cotton production and further entrenched the slave system in the South to meet the growing demand for cotton from Northern textile mills. The cotton gin increased productivity and profits for plantation owners, fueling the expansion of slavery until it was abolished after the Civil War.
The south and the north
The document summarizes some key differences between the North and South that contributed to tensions between the two regions leading up to the Civil War. The North had a colder climate and rocky terrain unsuitable for large-scale agriculture, so it developed industries and manufacturing instead of plantations. The South had a warmer climate ideal for agriculture and grew cash crops like cotton and tobacco using slave labor. The economies of the two regions diverged, with the North favoring tariffs to protect industry while the South opposed tariffs and relied on exporting cash crops and importing goods. Disagreements over the issues of states' rights and the expansion of slavery led sectional tensions to increase.

It discusses how this led South Africa to transition from an agricultural to industrial economy. The mineral revolution drastically changed South African society and led to the loss of independence of African kingdoms. It also discusses how the demand for cheap labor on the mines led to the implementation of segregation policies and the compound system to control the African population. Land was also dispossessed from African communities to ensure a supply of cheap labor to the mines.

History of Slavery
Introduction
Slavery is the ownership of one human being by another and it has existed throughout history and thus it is by no chance people are found mistreating others. The issue of slavery began in the 1960 where Africans were being transported to North America as slaves. On arrival, they would then be forced to work on plantations or mines while there are those who were forced to be servants in homes. Additionally, most of the slaves could money which they used to buy their freedom, other could get married, while there are those who could testify in courts and as a result they would earn land illegally. In 1600, the African American also started becoming slaves in the American colonies and most of the laves were found in the south due to the fact that this is where land plantations of cotton were found as well as other crops that were grown here and needed people to take care of the land(Davis, 2016). However, the north did not need many slaves. This essay will examine the history of slaver, where it began and how the slaves were treated and finally when it came to an end.
In 1800, the plantation workers were referred to as the field hands since their duties including picking and planting cotton. This was among the most tiring and longest job because they picked cotton form morning to evening. Moreover, the slaves that worked in the homes of their master were called servants and their duties included cooking and doing laundry(Eltis, Engerman, Drescher, & Richardson, 2017). On the other hand, other slaves were trained to do different kinds of jobs and they were only trained as the white people did not want them to learn how to read and write because they thought that when the black learned, they would be encouraged to run away.
Additionally, there were the slaves’ masters who supervised the slaves and the works that they used to do. Some of the masters were very kind and they could even reward the slaves for the good job by giving them money and gifts while other masters were very cruel since they could punish the slaves and treat them very poorly(Gaffield, 2016). To add to that note, the slaves who worked in the mines and in the cotton plantations were treated very poorly as they were most of the time punished. However, the servantsin the homes were treated as one of the members of the family that they were serving. Some of the slaves could sometimes be lucky due to the fact that they could be freed upon the death of their master who could leave behind a will that led to the freedom of the slaves. Once they were free, the slaves created their own common language as well as music and their religion assisted them to get through the rough times and most of the religion that was used by the slaves was the African and the Christian beliefs. The African continued worshipping as they did while they were in their homes.

Colonial economy
The document discusses economic life and trade in the early colonial regions of North America. It begins by asking students to imagine living in a different environment and describes how climate, natural resources, and jobs would vary by region. Students are then split into expert groups to examine pictures from one colonial region and analyze how people interacted with their environment and economy. The document concludes by providing an assessment where students create a poster or brochure about their assigned region, describing life and trade, with the goal of exceeding standards by including an example of interdependence between regional economies.
Slavery
The document provides information about slavery in the United States prior to the Civil War, including how Africans were brought to America through the slave trade, the conditions slaves faced, and efforts to resist slavery such as through the Underground Railroad which secretly transported escaped slaves to freedom. Obstacles an escaped slave may face in attempting to flee include recapture due to laws supporting slavery, separation from family and friends, lack of provisions or shelter, and risks of traveling at night such as exposure to weather or wild animals.
Causes of the Civil War: Slavery
The document provides information about slavery in the United States prior to the Civil War, including how Africans were brought to America through the Middle Passage, the conditions slaves faced, and resistance efforts such as the Underground Railroad which helped slaves escape to freedom. Key events that further divided the country over the issue of slavery are examined, such as the Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 which increased tensions between abolitionists and slaveholders. Methods slaves used to communicate and assist each other in escaping via the Underground Railroad are described, despite facing severe punishments if caught.
Answer d222
Slavery was abolished in 1833 for both humanitarian and economic reasons. White middle class campaigners like Granville Sharp and William Wilberforce argued that slavery violated Christian teachings and was cruel. They collected petitions signed by over a million people calling for abolition. Working class citizens also campaigned against slavery and signed petitions. Meanwhile, slaves rebelled and demanded freedom, with rebellions in places like Haiti leading to the end of slavery there. Plantation owners also faced economic problems as sugar from other countries became cheaper to produce than sugar from slave plantations in the West Indies. Together, these humanitarian, economic and slave resistance factors led Parliament to abolish the slave trade in 1807 and finally end slavery in 1833

Key events that further divided the country over the issue of slavery are examined, such as the Missouri Compromise of 1820 and the passage of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 which increased tensions between abolitionists and slaveholders. Methods slaves used to communicate and assist each other in escaping via the Underground Railroad are described, despite facing severe punishments if caught.
Answer d222
Slavery was abolished in 1833 for both humanitarian and economic reasons. White middle class campaigners like Granville Sharp and William Wilberforce argued that slavery violated Christian teachings and was cruel. They collected petitions signed by over a million people calling for abolition. Working class citizens also campaigned against slavery and signed petitions. Meanwhile, slaves rebelled and demanded freedom, with rebellions in places like Haiti leading to the end of slavery there. Plantation owners also faced economic problems as sugar from other countries became cheaper to produce than sugar from slave plantations in the West Indies. Together, these humanitarian, economic and slave resistance factors led Parliament to abolish the slave trade in 1807 and finally end slavery in 1833
8 - antebellum america
The document provides an overview of the economic, social, and political differences between the antebellum North and South. The North's economy was based on manufacturing and industry while the South relied on slave labor to grow cash crops like cotton. These diverging economic systems led to conflicts over the expansion of slavery and states' rights, ultimately resulting in the American Civil War.
The early american economy
The document discusses several key inventions and economic developments in the United States including the national market, cotton gin, steel plow, mechanical reaper, telegraph, and rise of cotton and slavery in the South. The national market boosted the economy by exporting goods abroad. The cotton gin automated and increased cotton production, fueling the demand for slavery. The steel plow and mechanical reaper increased agricultural productivity. The telegraph allowed rapid communication. Cotton became the dominant crop and economic driver of the South, further entrenching the institution of slavery. Nativism emerged as Americans resented immigrants taking jobs.

There are three classmates responses to the question below. You are to respond to their post in 125 words each. I also posted my response so that you can get n idea of my writing style
Using your book, films, and Internet resources can you describe the different types of duties and roles that enslaved people endured in America? How did the slave impact the economics of the South? How did the slave have apart in the nation's financial success?
My response to the question, so that you can have an idea of my writing style- In point of fact, it is of paramount importance to make note of the reality that slavery was most often hard work, which was as a matter of fact sustained by the use of excessive force in addition to the menace of humiliation on top of separation from not only the family but also from the community the particular slaves hailed from. In actual point of fact, the providers of the slave labour came to be generally referred to as “factories in the filed (Govan, 2010).” To add to the point, slaves were most of the times than not made use of as “clogs in machines.” Furthermore, they provide manual work in the sugar plantations usually subsisting in the West Indies as well as in the state of Carolina. Furthermore, slaves were essential in the provision of home services as well as in the carrying of luggage, as situation that differed from one state to the other.
To begin with, it is significant to make note of the actuality that, the profitability of slavery in America is a question that is enduring. Normally, economists aver that slavery in the Americas especially yield great economic profitability since the slaves provided business services devoid of pay and thus reducing the cost of production greatly. Furthermore, a glut of authors and researchers in the subject assert that, dint of the reality that workers were treated well especially in the South Americas, they tended to provide a lucrative enterprise especially for the owners of plantations. In reality, this is due to the fact that, as a consequence of proper treatment, the slaves tended to be rather productive and thus resulting in great economic success in the South Americas.
What is more a proper construction of the writing on slavery tends to divulge that slavery was “generally a highly profitable investment which yielded rates of return that compared favorably with the most outstanding investment opportunities in manufacturing (Anderson & Callman, 2012).” As result of the great productivity in the South dint of free slave labour, the products were exported in large numbers to other nations of the world, and hence earning the respective exporting nations revenue which tended to contribute to the financial success of the nations.

The north and south
- 1. The North and South By: Dallas Hull, Brianna Winton, and Dakota Hull
- 2. The North and its People. In the north the people moved to the cities to work in factories because of jobs since all there was in the south was cotton fields and slavery. After the potato famine in Ireland most of the Irish moves to the cities by steam boat . Some Germans also move to the north because they wanted to get away from the war In the north you would see factories, trains, and steam boats Once many moved to the north the buildings became tall and they grew in size as well, and so did the cities. Since the was and over population and no sewage well they dumped there waste right out of the homes onto the street. Also in the factories since there was no laws stating that it was illegal In that time children could work in the factories Back then the was no law about the safety of others in these factories either. And so back then since the cities were getter larger so did the increase of money which meant your whole family had to work just to get by on the bills.
- 3. Northern jobs Working in the city was hard since many moved north because of all sorts of reasons . Plus since there was no laws and safety rules in factories it was okay for your whole family to work in mills and textile factories. Today you see that there are rules and safety laws. We all know that in the north slavery was not an issue but if you were caught helping an escaped slave you were put in jail
- 4. The South and its People In the south many of the people were farmers. There main interest in the South was cotton, because the country demanded more cotton to make more clothes and it was easier to farm in the south. This made a perfect opportunity for farmers. But when the demand for more cotton grew so did the expectation for the farmers. When the farmers got overload they fell behind. And started to use slaves to do the work for them.
- 5. History in the South During the era of slavery, cotton was the major cash crop. When Eli Whitney was asked to revolutionize cotton production he invented the cotton gin in 1793. The cotton gin was a machine that removed the seeds from the cotton making it easier for workers to clean. With this a worker could make 50 times more than what he or she would have made in a day. This changed the way that farmers looked at slaves and also added to the demand for more slaves in the south.
- 6. Slavery in the South Enslaved African Americans endured brutal conditions , hardship, and misery. They earned little to no money at all, but worked hard at what they do. With little hope of freedom they continued to work hard in hopes of not being separated from there families and sold as a piece of property as some plantation owners took them as. In the south there were few brave people to try to escape these plantations would led to conflict and this made the plantation owners mad.
- 7. Escaping Slaves Escaping slaves was an issue considering the fact that these slaves were worth as much as a car nowadays. So when they started to get mad and want there slaves back. There were codes to help the escaping slaves know which houses were safe for them to rest and keep on heading north. The local police usually caught on soon enough so they kept changing them so that they didn’t risk getting caught. When people got into free states they weren’t completely free. To be free and independent they had to go all the way to Canada for the government had established the Fugitive Slave Act. Which meant that if Northerners caught the runaway slaves they would be sent back to there owners and be forced to turn traitor exposing all that had helped them and the secret codes used in the Underground Railroad.
