What was the purpose of sharecropping

History
1 answer:
ANTONII [103]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Following the Civil War, plantation owners were unable to farm their land. They did not have slaves or money to pay a free labor force, so sharecropping developed as a system that could benefit plantation owners and former slaves.

Explanation:

After the Civil War, former slaves sought jobs, and planters sought laborers. The absence of cash or an independent credit system led to the creation of sharecropping. ... The Great Depression, mechanization, and other factors lead sharecropping to fade away in the 1940s.

Which statement about why Emperor Constantine chose Byzantium as his new capital is not true?
Lena [83]

If your choices are the same as I've seen elsewhere with this question (brainly.com/question/12289199#readmore), this was the <u>not true</u> item:

  • It was the hottest city in the rapidly growing Christian region.

Additional details about the establishment of Constantinople:

Constantine built his new capital city to resemble "Old Rome."  Constantine made his own capital city in monumental fashion, but wanted to give it also the prestige and aura of the Roman Empire. The building of Constantinople took several years, and Constantine modeled it after Rome, with government buildings designed in Roman style.

The existing city of Byzantium was the place Constantine built up and renamed after himself as Constantinople. (That's why the Eastern Roman Empire often is referred to as the Byzantine Empire.)

Today, Istanbul is the name of the city that was once Byzantium and then Constantinople.
