How did the practice of using enslaved workers support the southern economy?

History

leonid [27]3 years ago

Slaves did most of the laboring work in the South. They took care of the crops, cotton at the most, as it was the largest crop supply in the South. The breeding and trading of slaves also ensured that there would be enough workers to go around. White Southern slave owners usually had large plots of land, which they needed plenty of workers to help harvest, plant, and more. Slaves also worked inside the house, as maids or servants or butlers. I believe there were also a few who were taught to drive horse-drawn carriages and coaches, so that they may drive their owners around. Slaves were what gave the Southern community their money, food, and were the base-makers of clothing.

How is Japan treated differently than Africa during Imperialism?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Read the following

Explanation:

So Japan had a period of moderniziation (The Meiji Restoration Period) where they developed rapidly and managed to get a military and navy similar to the major powers. However, they weren't seen as equals to the Europeans. Now they weren't colonized because, they did isolate themselves but when they were forced out of isolation, they knew they had to modernize or they'll become like the Qing Dynasty (modern day china) and have imperial powers take advantage of them and there lands. So unlike Africa, Japan actually had a realistic chance of defending themselves from invaders, something that would make invading Japan costly. Not only that, but after 1900 it would be almost impossible to treat the Japanese like they did to Africa, as they rapidly grew a European like military and navy. Also, they were one of the 11 nations that sent troops to Peking in the boxer rebellion, which kind of showed how the Japanese weren't equal to the Qing Dynasty, at least in terms of military and navy as they were shown to be much stronger. Finally in 1904, the Russo-Japanese war begun, and while Russia had the largest army in the world at that time (in terms of troop count) the Japanese managed to invade Manchuria which was partially owned by the Russians at that time. Also, they destroyed the Russian naval fleet, ending the chance of Russia ever being able to invade Japan again (at least until WW2). So after the Russo-Japanese war, Japan was considered a great power, and most likely the next asian hegemony, which they were for a time in WW2.
