How were the Southern Colonies arranged?

Asked by Jramosxo

Answer (2)

The southern colonies were mostly aranged by cash crops. They made huge amounts of cotton, wheat, tobacco, corn, and similar things, because they had a good climate for that so they could export it and earn loads of money. This is how the southern states became wealthy and land owners became something like nobility, important rich figures that were respected.

The Southern Colonies were arranged around agriculture, focusing on cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo. Wealthy plantation owners dominated the social hierarchy, relying on enslaved labor for their large farms. Trade played a crucial role, as these colonies exported their crops for profit.
