History

The Virginian settlers wanted to live by themselves, so they formed their own Government and framed laws and that was the reason why House of Burgesses was created in Jamestown by the Virginia local company.

It resembled the parliament with six government officials who formed their legislature and the Governor who is the head of the council.  

The present day government is similar in functionality as per the House of Burgesses and that was the reason why Americans were able to govern themselves well after the pronouncement of Independence.

What was the primary way the farms in the south differed from those in the north ?
ehidna [41]

The primary way that farms in the south differed from those in the north is because the farms of the south raised cash crops using a plantation system.

Further Explanation:

In colonial America (1600-1775), slave labor was used throughout the 13 American colonies. In the North, slaves were used in industries such as shipbuilding. In the South, slaves were used for planting cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo.

Once America became independent and started developing its own rules, the views on slavery changed. After 1800, some states started to outlaw slavery while other states kept it. One of the biggest changes was that Southern states focused predominantly on growing one extremely important cash crop, cotton. America became the largest exporter of cotton in the world.

Despite the economic success, slavery brought with it many negative effects such as the mistreatment of African Americans, fights between abolitionists and pro slavery citizens, etc.

Ultimately, this institution would be one of the main factors in sparking the Civil War.
