Answer:
C. It had a high potential for profit.
Explanation:
The Southern States relied heavily on the slaves for their work be it agricultural produce or even farm work. Plantations of tobacco, cotton, grapes, rice, etc. would become the home for many slaves.
The fact that cotton came to 'rule' the deep South was because of the crop's potential to incur a higher profit for the farmer. Depending on the season and market, cotton crops would make huge profits which became a boon for the plantation farm owners. Producing cotton through the slaves enabled the landowners to get a better income than planting other crops. Moreover, it was also relatively easy to grow, be it in large farms or small areas. So, cotton would become the better choice to plant in the plantation farms.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
I believe it was <u>1909</u>. When there was a scandal in the news.
Born in Moscow, Russia on June 9, 1672, Peter the Great was a Russian czar in the late 17th century who is best known for his extensive reforms in an attempt to establish Russia as a great nation. He created a strong navy, reorganized his army according to Western standards, secularized schools, administered greater control over the reactionary Orthodox Church, and introduced new administrative and territorial divisions of the country.
Answer:
It hurt the confederacy very harshly, by destroying many crop fields, taking control of a vast amount of previously controlled confederate land, and scaring many confederate supporters off.
Explanation:
Sherman led a march of about 60,000 soldiers from Atlanta to Savanna, Georgia.
The intention was mainly to scare any remaining confederate supporters off. Anyone who opposed had their possessions taken and their property burned. They did not destroy whole towns but they destroyed many crop fields, resulting in reduced rations for soldiers and less food for the families at home.
They also ended up capturing Atlanta, which at the time was a main railroad hub in the south, and also home to the ICOTC or the industrial center of the confederacy. It held many supplies for all of the armies in the deep south.
I believe it is 'C' or 'D'. I am taking the pre-test now, and that's what my teacher said. I hope this narrows your options down a bit.
