<span>Assuming that this is referring to the same list of options that was posted before with this question, <span>the correct response would be except "shift to an agricultural economy" since it was in fact the opposite that helped make Japan an imperial power.</span></span>
Here are some options to chose from:
-Slavery was more common in South Carolina
-In South Carolina there was a divided society between rich and poor
- there were many Scots-Irish imigrants in the region
I think the first option is the most significant.
