and enslaved Africans to work their crops.

Charles Town The Southern Colonies had more farms but
fewer towns than the other colonies. Charles Town, South Carolina became a large
port city and was a busy center of trade. Charles Town’s port was used to export
tobacco, rice, and indigo. Ships from Europe and the West Indies
brought their goods in through this port. Charles Town had a diverse population:
English, Scots-Irish, French, West Indies, and free and enslaved Africans.

most of the work on plantations As plantations grew, more workers
were needed; Southern plantation owners began to rely on slaves.

Life Under Slavery Slaves were bought and sold as
property. Families were torn apart; husbands
and wives were often separated. Slaves were either laborers in the
field or house servants. Children were also expected to work. Overseers watched slaves, whipped
and punished them. Many slaves died from overwork, poor
food and shelter, and mistreatment.
