Interactions with the natural environment led to the cultivation of multiple cash crops, therefore shaping the institution of slavery, and values favoring economic benefits first in the southern colonies, and then the southern states of the North American Continent.
The Early Colonies
In the Chesapeake Bay region of Virginia, warm weather and plentiful rainfall prompted the cultivation of America's first cash crops: tobacco, and rice.
Virginia, as King Charles I put it, was "founded upon smoke."
Pine trees were in high demand for naval purposes.

These indentured servants occupied a "middle rank between slaves and free men."
