Review Chapter 11, "The Cotton Revolution," in TAY (which you read earlier) and create a list of statistics you found useful. (Include the page number so you can find the information again!) Make a copy of your list and bring it to class. Be prepared to use these statistics in the class discussion to explain and explore the scope and implications of "the cotton revolution."

The Cotton Revolution occurred between 1820 and 1860.  During this period, the Southern part of the United States experienced an economic boom resulting from the increased demand for cotton as raw materials to feed the Industrial Revolution in Great Britain.

Thus, the Cotton Revolution intertwined the economic expansion in the South with its population growth.

One helpful statistic we can use is the amount of enslaved people per county, in the year 1860, just a year before the American Civil War.

Explanation:

This statistic can be used as a proxy to determine the counties were cotton had the highest production, because cotton was a cash crop grown in large plantations that were worked by enslaved African Americans.

Several counties had 80% or more slaves as percentage of the total population, meaning that they were overwhelmingly black. The majority of these counties were located in the Mississippi Delta, in the state of the same name, in the Black Belt of Alabama and Georgia, and in southern South Carolina.

answer: a parliamentary system is a system of democratic governance of a state where the executive derives its democratic legitimacy from its ability to command the confidence of the legislature, typically a parliament, and is also held accountable to that parliament. in a parliamentary system, the head of state is usually a person distinct from the head of government. this is in contrast to a presidential system, where the head of state often is also the head of government and, most importantly, the executive does not derive its democratic legitimacy from the legislature.

countries with parliamentary democracies may be constitutional monarchies, where a monarch is the head of state while the head of government is almost always a member of parliament (such as the united kingdom, denmark, sweden, and japan), or parliamentary republics, where a mostly ceremonial president is the head of state while the head of government is regularly from the legislature (such as ireland, germany, india, and italy). in a few parliamentary republics, such as botswana, south africa, and suriname, among some others, the head of government is also head of state, but is elected by and is answerable to parliament. in bicameral parliaments, the head of government is generally, though not always, a member of the lower house.

parliamentarianism is the dominant form of government in europe, with 32 of its 50 sovereign states being parliamentarian. it is also common in the caribbean, being the form of government of 10 of its 13 island states, and in oceania. elsewhere in the world, parliamentary countries are less common, but they are distributed through all continents, most often in former colonies of the british empire that subscribe to a particular brand of parliamentarianism known as the westminster system.
