Hello there! The cotton gin would be your answer :)

During the pre-civil war era, cotton was extremely hard for slaves to do by hand, and slowed down production of cotton. This machine, created by Eli Whitney and helped speed the process of collecting cotton which dramatically increased the profit of Southern plantations.

I hope this helped! If you have any more questions just comment or message me :) I can give a more in-depth lesson about the effects of the cotton gin if you'd wish. Good luck with school!

Here's a picture showing how the cotton gin works (found on slideshare.net)

mars1129 [50]

<em>Until the mid 15th century the engine of the renaissance was mostly confined to the Mediterranean. What little permeated into Northern Europe was mostly around the prosperous Hanse ports of Antwerp and Bruge. The Dutch painter Van Eyck is perhaps the most notable Northern figure of this earlier period.</em>
