What factors led to the development of plantation farming in the Southern Colonies? (e.g. Slavery, Location , (?)
Lorico [155]
The farming plantation in the southern colonies flourished due to its geography and its climate. The land in the southern colonies is considered to be of fertile soil. They also contain hilly coastal plains, rich forests, extensive rivers, and swampy areas which is good for producing crops. The climate is another factor; with its soft winters and humid summers, crops tend to grow right away. The tidewater near the coastal plains also brings in minerals which is good for the crops. The growing seasons in the southern colonies are also much longer compared to other places, so it becomes a place ideal for farming.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Patty may win based on the doctrine of promissory estoppel.

This happens when the person that was promised something and makes a decsion based on this promise that ends badly because the promise was not upheld. In this case, Patty quit her job because she thought her uncle was going to pay her $200 per month. Because her uncle only paid her one out of the six months, she is without $1000 that she was counting on to focus on her studies.
