I'm taking a stab at it and say the last one. sorry if I'm wrong! XD
After the Civil War (1861-1865), the land was divided into small parcels and started to be rented or sharecropped. At that time slavery was condemned, so former slaves became those sharecroppers who rented the land of plantations in order to stand for a living by producing and sharing the crops. The owners or the new sharecropped demolished slaves’ old housing and built new ones near the main house. Besides, owners had to start paying taxes in cash which produced an impoverishment of plantations.
It was the First Continental Congress that wrote a petition to king George declaring parliament couldn't pass laws on the colonists without representation by colonists
