8-1.5 Explain how South Carolina used their natural, human, and political resource uniquely to gain economic prosperity, including settlement by trade with the people of Barbados, rice and indigo plating and the practice of mercantilism.

Natural Resources South Carolina’s natural resources included abundant deer that could be hunted for its skins and pine forest to harvest. Carolina also had broad expanses of fertile land, and mild climate, and long growing season.

South Carolina’s Market A good port at Charleston and navigable waterways along the coast into the interior made shipping goods to market possible.

Trade The flourishing trade made the Carolinas a profitable colony. Traders obtained furs and deerskins from Native Americans slaves to the people of Barbados.

Pitch and Tar SC pine trees were a source of pitch and tar (naval stores) which the British used for making ships watertight.

Carolina Gold Rice became known as “Carolina Gold”, a stable crop and the source of long-term prosperity.

Eliza Lucas Pinckney Eliza Lucas Pinckney was and immigrant from Antigua planted indigo because she was determined to make the family plantation successful.

Indigo Indigo was a plant used to make a highly valued blue dye and the British government was offering a subsidy as an incentive to anyone who would grow it. Indigo became a new cash crop for South Carolina.

Mercantilism Mercantilism was an economic system in which the mother country controlled trade in order to export more goods than it imported. Mercantilism policies let the mother country amass more gold and silver and become very wealthy and powerful.

Mercantilism in South Carolina. SC served as both a source of raw materials and a market for British manufactured goods. This lessened the mother country’s dependence on foreign trade and thus improved her balanced of trade. (exports imports)

Rice and Indigo Rice and Indigo were on ‘the enumerated’ list of products that could be sold only to England.

British Government The British government was lax in its enforcement of most mercantilist laws (a condition known as salutary neglect) and so the people British North America were free to develop their economies without much interference from the mother country.
