__Observe the types of people that worked.__ The types of people that worked were actually quite different from what it is today. There was younger teenage girls working in factories and it wasn't just small work. The work days were very long. They started at about 4:30 and went until about 6:30. They came to the mills to earn money instead of working on the farm. A lot of times the children helped out on the family farms though. __Distinguish how laws might have affecte__d __inventions or production.__ Today if you were to try to make something you would really have to pass the safety precausions. It seemed like back then you could make something and try it out and there wasn't much questioning about it. There really were some great inventions though. If there were laws to stop them we wouldn't be as advanced as we are today. They started to make ways of mass production, the telegraph was invented, and a man named John Deere invented a type of plow. __Compare how things are made today to how they were in the North.__
 * North**
 * Today **: There is a wide spead of different things being made and produced. Work days were not as long and they are about 9 hours on average. The workings conditions today are usually pretty nice. For some jobs like construction you have safety precausions. In some jobs you dress very nicely and do things like bills, and meetings. Most things today are made with little human assistance and a lot of robotic machinery.
 * North **: The factories were a really hard place to work. The days were very long and you were working for about 14 hours. The factories were very stuffy because the windows were never opened. This caused breathing problems because of the cotton dust. If you worked in the factory you were most likely shortening your life because it was not good for you at all. It wasn't easy work either. Your arms would sometimes get scratched or swollen from the machines. There had to be a lot of maintaining done and a lot of people to make things.

__Explain how people depended on agriculture__ Agriculture it seemed completely ran people's lives in the South. In the beginning there were three major types of crops. Indigo, tobacco, and rice. Needed to make these crops were many slaves. However when the prices for these crops dropped and the price of slaves also went down. Farmers were trying to make other crops that needed less labor, but right then it didn't seem to be working. Then came cotton, which required a lot of work for it to be processed. When the crop cotton became major that added a lot more slaves and started the developing of ways to make producting things more efficient. Many different inventions were made to increase/simplify the production. It seemed that without cotton the economy would fail, and so we began to trade the cotton with other countries. Without the cotton industry a lot of things would have been changed in the south including the economy and it would probably effect how the government was too because there would have been not many slaves because there wasn't much to be done. __Advise laws that would have helped rebellions__ For the slaves they should have had some rights. Things like having there own relgion and occasionally being able to have some contact with their family members. Slavery is bad in the first place but if it's going to happen they shouldn't be completely disconnected from their past and their family. They should have had some breaks in working so it wasn't constant because they would work slower so that the work day wouldn't be as long and hard. Slaves were worked way to hard and it definately isn't right. __Observe how cotton profits grew__ First cotton wasn't even one of the major crops. It was tobacco, rice, and indigo and when the prices dropped. When those prices dropped the prices for slaves also dropped. Basically the industries fell, but then came along cotton. At first it was really hard to produce because it was difficult to seperate the seed from it. Then there were inventions which developed more of a way of mass production. From where we are today a lot of different things came from that because it was the beginnging of doing things with less slaves and things like that. Cotton was then the major crop and without it the industry and economy would have completely failed. Also trade grew from that so we were making money from that. Overall cotton really boosted everything.
