Answer:

One helpful statistic we can use is the amount of enslaved people per county, in the year 1860, just a year before the American Civil War.

Explanation:

This statistic can be used as a proxy to determine the counties were cotton had the highest production, because cotton was a cash crop grown in large plantations that were worked by enslaved African Americans.

Several counties had 80% or more slaves as percentage of the total population, meaning that they were overwhelmingly black. The majority of these counties were located in the Mississippi Delta, in the state of the same name, in the Black Belt of Alabama and Georgia, and in southern South Carolina.

Cloud [144]
He used the atomic bomb against Japan because they were one of the world's major powers.

If the Supreme Court states that a law is constitutional, can the same kind of law be written by other states? Why or why not?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

I assume this postulates a state statute. A decision upholding the constitutionality of a federal statute might or might not bode well for an equivalent state statute. Some federal laws are within the exclusive province of the federal government, so states may not legislate about the same subject under any circumstances, such as most matters of foreign relations and national defense. There are also categories of law that Congress may choose to make exclusively federal. The Copyright Act of 1976 did that for copyright law, which previously allowed scope for complementary state law.
