URGENT: WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST : Which state had the most number of slaves before and after the Civil War?

In 1860, the start of the Civil War, Virginia topped as the states with the most slaves at the beginning of the Civil War.

Virginia --->  490,865 (or somewhere around that #)  

I'm so sorry I don't know which states had the most slaves after the war. But I hope the answer above helped :)

punish germany and keep it weak,

in mcculloch v. maryland (1819) the supreme court ruled that congress had implied powers under the necessary and proper clause of article i, section 8 of the constitution to create the second bank of the united states and that the state of maryland lacked the power to tax the bank.

gibbons v. ogden, (1824), was a landmark decision in which the supreme court of the united states held that the power to regulate interstate commerce, granted to congress by the commerce clause of the united states constitution, encompassed the power to regulate navigation.
