Answer:

There were relatively few slaves or large plantations in these regions

Explanation:

The Civil War in the United States began in 1861, after decades of simmering tensions between northern and southern states over slavery, states’ rights and westward expansion.

Growing abolitionist sentiment in the North after the 1830s and northern opposition to slavery’s extension into the new western territories led many southerners to fear that the existence of slavery in America and thus the backbone of their economy was in danger.

On September 17, the Army of the Potomac hit Lee’s forces (reinforced by Jackson’s) in what became the war’s bloodiest single day of fighting. Total casualties at the Battle of Antietam (also known as the Battle of Sharpsburg) numbered 12,410 of some 69,000 troops on the Union side, and 13,724 of around 52,000 for the Confederates.

What are 6 new inventions that were created
Arlecino [84]

Spinning Jenny
James Hargreaves invented this in 1764. It allowed workers to spin more wool at one time which greatly increased the productivity. This was a necessary invention for the indutrialization of the textile industry.

Steam Engine
James Watt created the first truly reliable steam engine in the year 1775. Other, that didn't work well had been developed in the 1600s. Watt’s version included a crankshaft and gears and is the foundation for modern steam engines. This invention is what made locomotives and many of the textile machines possible.

Power Loom
Edmund Cartwright invented this in the year 1785. It drastically changed the way cloth was woven by making it much easier. It would take almost another half a century and several alterations by other creators before it would become commonly used.

Cotton Gin
Eli Whitney patented this (cotton gin is short for cotton engine) in the year 1794. Prior to the invention of the cotton gin, cotton seeds had to be removed from the cotton fiber by hand. This invention made cotton a much more profitable crop for farmers so they make more money. With this invention, many more farmers turned to cotton as their main crop because of the profits, greatly increasing the amount of cotton plantations in the South. These expanding farms needed cheap labor, which also resulted in an increased use of African slaves.

Telegraph
Samuel F. B. Morse created this in the year 1836. This invention changed the face of communication. Instant communication became possible between the east and west coasts and allowed people to know what was happening almost as it happened. It helped people get in touch with people far away.

Sewing Machine
Elias Howe created this in the year 1844. This forever changed the way clothes were made and allowed the mass production of clothing. Before this it was most common for women to make all of the clothes for their families by hand. Only the very wealthy could afford to have a tailor to make custom clothing of the latest fashion. It was later improved upon and patented by Isaac Singer in 1855.

Internal Combustion Engine
Jean Lenoir invented this in the year 1858. Eventually this engine was used in mass transportation.

Telephone
Alexander Graham Bell created this in the year 1876. This invention further improved communications and eventually led to the various communications devices used today.

Phonograph
Thomas Edison created this in the year 1877. Prior to the creation of the phonograph the only option for entertainment was for live musicians or actors to perform. This allowed people to listen to music anywhere.

Airplane
Brothers Orville and Wilbur Wright created the first ever airplane in the year 1903. The ability to fly had long been a dream of the human race. Within a few decades planes had changed the face of personal and business travel and had dramatically altered warfare. Also used for trading goods.

you can choose which ones u want to use. i was working on the same thing thats why i thought i can help! :D
