Who do you think benefited most from my the system of share cropping?

History
1 answer:
yuradex [85]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: A) Landowners.

Explanation:

Sharecropping is practice whereby a person rents land from the landowner to enable them farm the land. At the end of the year, they would give a portion of their produce to the landowners.

This was practiced in the South after the Civil War and massively benefitted the landowners because the sharecroppers were usually newly freed Black Americans who were pushed into debt due to the Sharecropping system.

This happened because the tools to grow on the land also had to be rented from the white landowners and with the price of cotton falling and with the crop sometimes failing, the sharecroppers would owe whatever they were supposed to pay that year regardless.

If they could not pay after sometime, they had to sign contracts that made them stay and work as labor until they could pay off the debt which gave the white landowners free labor for doing nothing.

The manorial system reduced the need for cities or towns.
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The answer is true.  

Explanation:

Medieval European manorial system was the system where rural society was arranged around a manor house or castle on an estate. The smallest units of these estates were called manors. Free and unfree labourers worked on the owner or lord’s land in return for protection and the right to work a separate piece of land for their own needs.

The hub of these rural communities was the manor or castle – the estate owner's private residence and place of communal gatherings for purposes of administration, legal matters and entertainment. Regulations, customs and traditions varied from one estate to another and over time, but the system of manorialism persisted throughout most of the Middle Ages.

Grant’s policy to win the war was one of
astra-53 [7]
General Ulysses S Grant wanted to wear down the Confederacy's forces, and cut the Confederate army off from supplies and food that would enable them to keep fighting. 

<span>Grant knew that the Union had a superiority of numbers and supplies, while the South had no more soldiers in reserve and dwindling resources. If Grant and President Lincoln remained persistent, it was only a matter of time before the Confederacy would be placed in a position of surrender but at great cost to both sides in casualties. </span>

<span>Grant and the Army of the Potomac fought a series of battles against General Robert E Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia. Grant suffered losses of tens of thousands of men, but kept pushing Lee farther and farther south, also losing men every day. </span>

<span>One of Grant's strategies was to bring the war to the South, destroying resources and railroads and homes. Grant cut off Confederate supplies by sending forces into the Shenedoah Valley, the major food source of the Confederate armies. US General Philip Sheridan fought a series of battles against the outstanding defense of CSA General Jubal Early until Sheridan finally controlled the entire region and destroyed the South's major agricultural base. </span>

<span>Grant sent General William T Sherman on a similar mission farther south, beginning by capturing the major city of Atlanta. Sherman then marched across Georgia, destroying crops and railroads, all the way to the port of Savannah. Sherman then turned and marched north to approach Lee's army from the south. Lee's forces, depleted by casualties and desertions, were under intense pressure from all sides. Grant's forces began to win every encounter, US cavalry destroyed Lee's supply trains, and by April 9 of 1865 Lee surrendered his army to Grant. The surrender of the last Confederate army unit occurred in June of 1865.</span>
