Invention of the Cotton Gin Invented by Eli Whitney in 1793 during the Industrial Revolution Designed to remove seeds from the cotton Caused the cotton industry in the South to triple Southern farmers needed more slaves to keep up with cotton production “King Cotton” was the main crop in the southern states. http://www.history.com/topics/inventions/cotton-gin-and-eli-whitney

Social and Economic Differences (infrastructure) South North The South was mostly agriculture - cotton The South needed slaves to work on their cotton plantations The South held on to the idea that different classes (rich vs. poor) should be separate and unequal The North was mostly industrial with factories and manufacturing The North took raw materials like cotton and turned them into finished goods Different cultures worked together so there was less discrimination between rich and poor

Louisiana Purchase Thomas Jefferson purchased this land from the French in 1803 This land doubled the size of the United States It caused the territories to ask for admittance to the Union as states The U.S. government had to decide whether the new states would be free states or slave states Doubled the size of America during that time. Sold for $15 million, roughly 4 cents an acre.

In the same year Maine broke from Massachusetts became a state. Maine was admitted to the Union as a free state Slavery was banned north of Missouri’s southern border Amid these tensions of the 36-30 parallel, the Mason-Dixon (boundary between Maryland and Pennsylvania) Eventually the Mason-Dixon line came to represent the division between slave and free states, and eventually the North and South

The War With Mexico 1846 – 1848 1846 troops entered Mexico to fight for more land Fighting took place in Texas, the southwest, and California Southerners wanted to extend the U.S. territories for slavery Northerners were afraid of slavery growing In the end, America won and received land in Texas, California, and the southwest Would these new territories be slave states or free states?

Manifest Destiny Many Americans thought it was their destiny to expand the United States from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean This caused land disputes with Mexico 1845 Texas was made a slave state even though Mexico thought they still owned Texas Mexico thought this was an act of war The U.S. offered to buy Texas for $30 million, but Mexico refused
