According to the myth<em> "Bida, the Black Snake"</em> the reason for the declinening of the trade of gold in Ghana was:  

3. The death of Bida.  

Bida, the black snake, and the kingdom of Ghana had an agreement. In return of prosperity and wealth Bida demanded every year the sacrifice of a virgin.  

One year, the virgin elected to be sacrificed was Siya Yatabar, the most beautiful and pure virgin of the kingdom. But Siya was engaged to Maadi. Her lover promesed to save her and kill the snake, despite her oposition. When the moment of the sacrifice came, Maadi fulfilled his promese and killed Bida, who before dieing cursed the nation with no rain and no gold for seven bad years, seven bad months and seven bad days.  

This myth explains the drought and the declination of gold minning that took place and was in part the reason for the decay of the Ghana empire.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

<em>Slavery was so profitable, it sprouted more millionaires per capita in the Mississippi River valley than anywhere in the nation. With cash crops of tobacco, cotton and sugar cane, America's southern states became the economic engine of the burgeoning nation. Their fuel of choice? Human slavery. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865. As an economic system, slavery was largely replaced by sharecropping and convict leasing.</em>

<em>Slavery had been practiced in British America from early colonial days, and was legal in all thirteen colonies at the time those colonies formed the United States. Under the law, an enslaved person was treated as property and could be bought, sold, or given away. Slavery lasted in about half of U.S. states until 1865.The first 19 or so Africans to reach the British colonies arrived in Point Comfort, Virginia, near Jamestown, in 1619, brought by British privateers who had seized them from a captured Portuguese slave ship. Slaves were usually baptized in Africa before embarking.</em>

Just one month after writing this letter, Lincoln issued his preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which announced that at the beginning of 1863, he would use his war powers to free all slaves in states still in rebellion as they came under Union control.
