For rulers like Justinian of Rome or Chinese Emperors for the Great Wall of China, when they taxed the people, they often focused on the lower class, like slaves, and in Imperial China, they had samurais to collect taxes or shared-crops for their services and not doing so was punishable (punishment varies based on time period). Also they paid their taxes for the good of their country so they could thrive with military and have a flourishing society. If you like my answer please give it a Brainiest medal.

List three effects that cotton gin had on the south's economy?
katrin [286]

Answer:While it was true that the cotton gin reduced the labor of removing seeds, it did not reduce the need for slaves to grow and pick the cotton. In fact, the opposite occurred. Cotton growing became so profitable for the planters that it greatly increased their demand for both land and slave labor.
