What were the sectional differences between the north and south?

History
1 answer:
NISA [10]3 years ago
7 0
So far i know 1. Industry: The northern states had industrialized, creating factories, and had a tremendous shipping and fishing industry, and thus did not have a need to keep slaves. Mind you, there WERE slaves in the North, but not nearly as many as in the South. The South, on the other hand, relied on plantation crops such as cotton and tobacco, and thus needed large numbers of slaves to farm the land. Without this virtually free labor, they would not have earned the profits they did on these crops. <span>
2. The North, while it had slaves, did not rely on them because they had industrialized, with far fewer farms. The South, with massive plantations and farms all over the place, had a labor problem, and continued to rely on slaves until the end of the Civil War. 

Those are probably the the two biggest ones (slaves and industry). </span>

Why did the office of Vice President become more important, with more responsibilities, as the twentieth century progressed?
slava [35]
As the scope of responsibilities of the President of the United States increased during the 20th century, the Vice-President came to be relied upon to handle greater responsibilities also.

A 21st century Vice-President, Joe Biden, said it well:  “The way the world has changed, the breadth and the scope of the responsibility an American president has virtually requires a vice president to handle serious assignments, just because the president’s plate is so very full."  Biden was quoted in the book, The American Vice Presidency: From Irrelevance to Power, published by Smithsonian Books in 2014.  

Another point might be made about 20th century Vice-Presidents -- especially in the latter half of the century.  A number of Vice-Presidents became President because of things that happened to the President.  .  President Franklin Roosevelt died while in office, and  was succeeded by his Vice-President, Harry Truman (in 1945).  Vice-President Lyndon Johnson became President when John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963.  Gerald Ford rose from Vice-President to President when Richard Nixon resigned to avoid impeachment. 

In the current situation of American politics, with partisan politics strongly dividing Congress, Vice-President Mike Pence has functioned a number of times as the tie-breaking vote in the Senate on important matters -- another way the Vice-Presidency has taken on greater responsibility lately.
