Explanation:
Here are a couple paragraphs to help you get started:
1. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, leaders of the U.S. and the Soviet Union engaged in a tense, 13-day political and military standoff in October 1962 over the installation of nuclear-armed Soviet missiles on Cuba, just 90 miles from U.S. shores. In a TV address on October 22, 1962, President John Kennedy (1917-63) informed Americans about the nearness of the rockets, disclosed his choice to order a maritime bar around Cuba and made it understood the U.S. was set up to utilize military power if important to eliminate this apparent risk to national security. Following this news, many people feared the world was on the brink of nuclear war. However, disaster was avoided when the U.S. agreed to Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev’s (1894-1971) offer to remove the Cuban missiles in exchange for the U.S. promising not to invade Cuba. Kennedy also secretly agreed to remove U.S. missiles from Turkey.
2. The Cuban Missile crisis comes to a close as Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev agrees to remove Russian missiles from Cuba in exchange for a promise from the United States to respect Cuba’s territorial sovereignty. This finished almost two weeks of nervousness and strains between the United States and the Soviet Union that verged on inciting an atomic clash. The outcomes of the emergency were numerous and changed. Relations among Cuba and the Soviet Union were by no means in a well established position for quite a while after Khrushchev's expulsion of the rockets, as Fidel Castro blamed the Russians for throwing in the towel from the Americans and abandoning the Cuban insurgency. European partners of the United States were likewise irritated, not due to the U.S. position during the emergency, but since the Kennedy organization kept them for all intents and purposes in obscurity about exchanges that may have prompted a nuclear war.
(personally I think Nikita Khrushchev should be the one to receive the peace prize but the choice is yours to make!)

Answer:
One helpful statistic we can use is the amount of enslaved people per county, in the year 1860, just a year before the American Civil War.
Explanation:
This statistic can be used as a proxy to determine the counties were cotton had the highest production, because cotton was a cash crop grown in large plantations that were worked by enslaved African Americans.
Several counties had 80% or more slaves as percentage of the total population, meaning that they were overwhelmingly black. The majority of these counties were located in the Mississippi Delta, in the state of the same name, in the Black Belt of Alabama and Georgia, and in southern South Carolina.
