The South supported slavery because, they was a big bang in cotton production, after the cotton gin was created. Slavery owners started to plant more cotton and buy more slaves for the increase of cotton. They more cotton they had the more slaves they needed to work, so that the owners could continue getting lots of money. The South was so focused on the cotton production that they rarely made any new inventions, and focused on cotton and slave labors. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:46:21 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244247676 22polakky https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244247974 Even before the American Revolution the North and South had many differences. These included ; inventions, population, city life, economy, culture and transportation. Slavery was mostly responsible for these differences between the North and the South. As well causing many problems between the two. ]]> 2018-03-20 19:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244247974 22scrimsherkr https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244729273 The North didn't have slavery. Yes there were still some slaves here and there, but the people in the North were trying hard to abolish slavery and partly succeeded.]]> 2018-03-21 19:33:47 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244729273 22scrimsherkr https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244733070 The North also had more inventions and success than the South. They invented a telegraph, mechanical reaper, railroads, steamboats, clipper ships, and sewing machines. Steamboats were used to travel through strong winds and streams faster than other early ships. The telegraph was a new form of communication which also inspired the creation of Morse Code. ]]> 2018-03-21 19:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244733070 22scrimsherkr https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244735898 With all those inventions, the streets became very dirty and additionally had bad sewage systems. The constant rate of factories being built helped women get jobs and prove that they are just as equal as men. Immigrants came to buy cheap land in the United States. People from all around the world came to the U.S. for job opportunities and to buy land. The Irish Famine escape lead people to the U.S. to  starvation and Germans came to abscond harsh rulers/crimes. ]]> 2018-03-21 19:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244735898 22scrimsherkr https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244738397 The value of goods went up due to the economic increase. Many new jobs opened up which led to the immigration.

The Cotton Gin, short for engine help the slaves pick the seeds from the cotton faster than their hands were able to pick the seeds. This made is the production of cotton to increase, because the slaves were able to produce cotton ten times faster then there were able to do before.

But, discrimination was popular. The North had allowed slave owners from the South to come get their slaves if they escaped. Sometimes even free African-Americans got captured to become slaves.]]> 2018-03-21 20:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244743004 22polakky https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244743191 In 1790 the population of the South was 689,000 slaves in the United States. Then in 1860 when the United States census was taken about 4 million slaves lived here. Meanwhile in the North there were more white families in the cities working instead of colored skinned people. The population of the North consisted of mostly white and the South mostly consisted of colored skins. There weren't lots of building being built in the south, but lots and lots of cotton plants being planted. Instead of having an industrial revolution the South had a cotton revolution. The South's cities were cotton plantations, were slaves got abused and worked until they couldn't feel anything anymore.

With all the production of cotton, opened a window for slave labor, which the North didn't have. The North had white men and children working on the machines, while in the South there were massive amount of slaves working.

The North wanted to abolish slavery, while the South wanted to continue slavery. The South was a slave zone, cotton producing setting. ]]> 2018-03-22 04:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244835089 22polakky https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244835691 The South didn't have as many railroads as the north because of the agriculture way of life. Additionally if railroads were used they were used to ship people and goods, as well as the steamboat. ]]> 2018-03-22 04:25:00 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/244835691 22scrimsherkr https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/245200494 The transportation in the North became more faster and easier. Steamboats and clipper ships were popular uses of transportation because of how fast they can travel against strong winds.]]> 2018-03-22 19:17:42 UTC https://padlet.com/22polakky/gxsv323npjvy/wish/245200494
