Answer:

Advancement of slavery

Explanation:

The invention of the Cotton Gin made the clean of the cotton faster, it saved time and it made possible for them to focus on planting and harvesting. This along with the increase of demand for cotton in Europe pushed for the expansion of slavery. The Southern states of the US produced 75% of the world’s cotton.
