The Declaration of Independence1.) The members of the Continental Congress voted to declare independence. They set up a five-man committee to draft a formal declaration. The Declaration of Independence was approved on July 4, 1776. It was signed on August 2 by 55 representatives, including North Carolina’s Joseph Hewes, William Hooper, and John Penn. 2.) Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence to explain why the colonies decided to separate from Britain and what rights the newly independent states now held. 3.) The declaration also listed the many wrongs that colonists suffered under King George III. 4.) Although the Declaration of Independence said that free and independent states had been created, Britain would not give up the colonies easily. Colonists would have tofight more battles to win their freedom.
Mecklenburg Resolves1.) They met to discuss the situation and adopted the Mecklenburg Resolves on May 20, 1775.2.) The resolves stated that British laws were no longer in effect. Colonists in North Carolina’s Mecklenburg County were concerned when they heard about the Lexington and Concord battles and Parliament’s declaration that the colonies were in rebellion.3.) To solve this crisis, the resolves provided for the creation of an independent local government to manage Mecklenburg County. 4.) The Mecklenburg Resolves which temporarily severed ties between Mecklenburg County and Britain, were drawn up more than a year before the Declaration of Independence was approved.

One difference is that. The Mecklenburg Resolves demand independence for themselves, while the Declaration of Independence demands independence for all of the thirteen colonies, now the independent United States of America. Another is that the Mecklenburg Resolves wrote it themselves, yet the Declaration of Independence was written by, yes, one person, but everyone made it up, and <span>signed it.</span>

While much of the South was dominated by plantation farming, which required slave labor, what area of the South did small, less
Rudiy27

Answer: Mountainous Areas

Explanation:

The wealthiest planters, such as the Virginia elite with plantations near the James River, owned more land and slaves than other farmers in the Upper South.

But the Mountainous areas of the South differed significantly from the rest of the South in more than just

its variable terrain of extensive plateaus, long valleys, and rugged, worn mountains.

Slaves performed diverse tasks -- a

pattern ostensibly not unique. In most of the American South, slaves were found to have different vocations. But in the Mountain South, because of the relatively high proportion of small plantations--another distinctive characteristic -- each individual slave often did far

Small plantations-- characterized by Dunaway as small slaveholding farms. Because the region contained a much greater proportion of small plantations than the remainder of the South.

Also the proportion of slaves allocated to nonagricultural labor, such as mining and tourism; despite being only about 15 percent of the adult population, black workers made up 30 percent or more of the nonagricultural workforce in many areas of the Mountain South. In all types of labor, slaves typically worked in the task system as

opposed to the gang system. These are overwhelming evidence both for the distinctiveness and

for the connectedness of the Mountain South relative to the whole of the American South.
