Why was slavery more common in South Carolina than in North Carolina?Check all of the boxes that apply.

South Carolina was settled in part by colonists from Barbados, where plantation agriculture and enslaved labor were already common. North Carolina had more small farmers and fewer large plantations, so slavery was less widespread there. North Carolina’s climate could support plantation crops in some areas, and slavery was not outlawed there soon after its founding.
