<span>I would say that the changes occurred between 1800 and 1860 in plantation crops and slavery systems were because of  the Industrial Revolution.After the southern states which needed the slaves the most were free to decide about the fate of the horrible slave trade. </span>At this point in time, the cotton production was very low and there were around 700,000 slaves in the whole country. So there could have been a chance that the trade could have died out. But then textiles and several machines like the cotton gin which helped grow even more cotton and crops and the southern economy boomed. The cotton quantities increased and by 1840, the South was producing and exporting over 2/3 of the world’s cotton, giving the region power. And naturally with the bigger plantations, they needed more slaves and  White planters started looking for new slaves in the upper South states, and between 1800 and 1860, the domestic slave trade was so popular that there became a craze called "Negro Mania" (which is really racist). Now this is a horrible chapter in America's history but <span>it was crucial for the southern economy, and it was an important resource to raise money, straightening the economy of the South.</span>

Evaluate the extent to which the emergence of regional identities shaped the political development of the United States from 180
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

After independence, distinct regional identities began to develop in the United States between the north and south of the country.

In the north, a liberal and open society began to develop, with an economy based on manufacturing and industrial production, and where religious concepts, although present, did not greatly determine the daily life of the inhabitants. In this region, wealth is mediated not so much by land extensions, but by the possession of goods or even the ownership of means of production.

In the south, on the other hand, society took a much more conservative, religious, and above all racist course. In it, the white man had an absolute superiority of rights over the blacks. Furthermore, there was a rural society, where the main production was agricultural and livestock in nature, and where wealth was mediated by the extensions of land that each landowner owned.

These social differences soon became political, with the Republican Party representing the north and the Democrats representing the south; and it was these differences that led to the conflict that led to the Civil War.
