Answer:
d. Slavery's opponents could build no persuasive argument against it.
Explanation:
The region of Southampton county, Virginia witnessed a slave rebellion in August 1831 which is known as Nat Turner's rebellion, after the name of slave Nat Turner who led it. Slaves killed 65 people and the aftermath was a brutal suppression of rebellion after a few days. State legislature came up with new laws to curb the civil rights of slaves and the dominant position was ensured to their masters to exert greater control on them.
The main way in which the <span>coastline of the Confederacy offered the south an advantage during the civil war was that it allowed to a great deal of trade to be done through a variety of ports--keeping the South relatively well-stocked with produce and other goods. </span>
I'm pretty sure the answer is D! :)
