How did the cotton gin affect both small upcountry farmers and large lowcountry farmers?

History
1 answer:
drek231 [11]3 years ago
5 0

The correct answer is small upcountry farmers had little money to purchase slaves to operate the cotton gin, leaving the industry to low country farmers.

The cotton gin was an invention made by Eli Whitney in 1793. The cotton gin was a machine that easily removed seeds from cotton. Before this invention, cleaning cotton was a long and tedious process. With the new cotton gin, it drastically reduced the time and price of producing cotton. This resulted in many plantation owners and farmers in Southern states (specific the low country) switching to growing cotton as their main cash crop.

The divide between the Communist Soviet Union and Democratic western countries was called the "________" by British Prime Minist
gulaghasi [49]

The correct answer is C.

The Iron Curtain was the term used to refer to the border located in the middle of the European continent that divided Europe and the whole world into two areas, since the end of WWII in 1945 until the end of the Cold War in 1991.

The territories located on the east of the Iron Curtain were the Soviet Union and its satellite states, or states under its influence. On the other hand, the states located on the west side of the border were democratic and capitalist countries, the US and its allies, and also neutral countries.

This term became popular during the Cold War era because Winston Churchill used it during a speech to refer to the division of the world in two sides.
