D. Enslaved people from Africa

Enslaved people from Africa provided the labor that allowed the southern colonies to generate profits.

  • The Southern states depended on the slaves to perform work in the fields of cotton plantations.
  • Slavery was the backbone of the economy of the South.
  • African slaves were brought to America as servants and labourers to help the English colonies to prosper and to generate wealth.
  • African Slaves were sold in an auction in the southern states with betting on them.

Therefore we can conclude that enslaved people from Africa were used as labour in southern states.
