The European intellectual movement called the enlightenment.
Alright :) I'm glad you figured it out.
There are several reasons as to why the white American colonists created a slave labor system, some of which are:
- They created enormous plantations of cash crops. This meant that lot of labor was needed and the white colonists were not in high enough number, nor were they willing to engage in such a high intensity labor. The best solution for them were the slaves.
- Initially the white colonists planned on using the Native Americans as labor force. This didn't went as planned as the majority of the Native Americans died out because of diseases they brought from Europe, as well as conflicts and displacements.
- The slaves were relatively cheap and abundant, as well as easy to get. Once they were bought they were the cheapest and most efficient possible work force, as they were not paid, only provided with shelter and food, and the owners had total control over theme, thus often forcing them to work throughout all of the day.
Answer: kurgans (burial mounds) of the Eurasian steppes. The hypothesis suggests that the Indo-Europeans, a nomadic culture of the Pontic-Caspian steppe (now part of Eastern Ukraine and Southern Russia), expanded in several waves during the 3rd millennium BC.
Explanation:
The most widely accepted proposal about the location of the Proto-Indo-European homeland is the steppe hypothesis, which puts the archaic, early and late PIE homeland in the Pontic–Caspian steppe around 4000 BC. The leading competitor is the Anatolian hypothesis, which puts it in Anatolia around 8000 BC.
Answer:
African descent
Explanation:
European descent in the late 1600s believed the Africans as inferior based on their race and colour. Europe saw them as fit to do manual work for Europeans. African descent was physically different from Europeans. Africans had a strong body structure which allowed them to work in fields for long hours.
The beginning of the plantation in America changed the structure of the trade and expansion. The Sugar plantation changed colonial societies as the economy based on slaves came into existence. Slavery increased overall elasticity in labour. It was also more productive and made labour a capital asset.
The insecurity some felt about their social status when slaves were put in the lowest class and were forced to work as labour. They were considered as the property of their masters.
