Why was it difficult for sharecroppers to get ahead?
It was difficult for sharecroppers to get ahead because when crops failed, both landowners and workers suffered. Even in good times, most workers' shares were very little, if anything at all. Therefore, yet only few people got ahead through sharecropping.
Why was slavery so important to the south?
The south was abundant in Cotton that needed to be picked, which is extremely hard work, so Southerners would buy slaves to do the work for them, and any other type of hard labour, like cutting sugar cane,so if a southerner had a plantation and money, they would buy slaves to do this, this all came to an end with the civil War from 1861 to 1865 Thank goodness
Why did most slaves live on large farms?
Because they worked on the farm. A long time ago, wealthy people would buy large portions of land so that they could make money off of the crops or livestock within that land. They had to have workers tho, so they used slaves.
