I’m going to have to say that Southern states pay more because the income of southerns are in low wage.
Americans who advocated annexation evinced a variety of motivations: desire for commercial opportunities in Asia, concern that the Filipinos were incapable of self-rule, and fear that if the United States did not take control of the islands, another power (such as Germany or Japan) might do so.
The term you're describing is p<span>rotectorate. These nations do have their own government but don't have a good enough military to defend themselves. They rely on stronger countries to help them in time of war.</span>
Because of how hot the weather would be and standing at farm and feeding animals is such big deal. To move to city probably for higher pay check or money.
Hope this helps! :)
