Explanation:
<span>Planter families were quickly decimated during the Civil War. Union blockades prevented southern plantations from exporting cotton, tobacco, indigo and other major crop they grew.

At the end of the war, the southern gentry/aristocracy that planter families made up was gone.</span>
