What happened to a lot of land that owners could not afford to keep after the civil war?

History
1 answer:
Paul [167]3 years ago

Answer:

Some, unable to pay their mortgages, lost their plantations when

the banks foreclosed. Some sold out to Northern carpetbaggers.

Those who were able to keep their land realized that they could not

sustain cotton production on an industrial scale without the slave

labor force, because they could not afford to pay living wages.

They developed a system called sharecropping by which the field hands would receive a portion of the crop in exchange for their

labor. The sharecroppers lived on the plantation in their own

shacks. In practice, the system was little better than slavery. the sharecropper had to pay their rent out of their share of the crop,

with very littl left over for anything beyond subsistence.

. Name three states where you think expensive, targeted campaigning occurs. Why did you pick these states"
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The three States are:

1. Michigan

2. Ohio

3. New Hampshire

Explanation:

These States often receive the most expensive and targeted campaigns during elections since they are considered as 'Swing States'

Unlike 'Safe States' which are generally inclined towards one party, Swing States have a history of changing sides and voting for someone new in every election.

One year they might support a democratic candidate, while in another, they might side with the Republicans. Since it is extremely difficult to predict what they will do, and their decision plays a huge role in who wins the election, they are called 'swing States' and receive a lot of attention.
