During the period before the Civil War, South Carolina was not only the wealthiest state but also the one that was alienated from the rest. On July 6th,  1774, at a general meeting, members of the South Carolina's society decided to create "The committee of 99", that  was formed by 5 delegates and who main task was to take control of the government of the colony.

The committee of 99 was created as a response of the colonists against the lack of representation that the colony had in America. They wanted to formally declare the shift that the colonists were making from the British Government and to start  governing themselves.
