In which part of the country was the issue of slavery being debated?
1. The mid Atlantic
2. The south
3. The northeast
4. The west

Respuesta :

Answer: 2. The south

Explanation:

The southern part of the United States was where the largest number of slaves resided and worked. The South was rich in large plantations of tobacco and cotton, on which most American slaves worked. The economy of that part of the United States rested precisely on slave labour. The industrialized North was against slave labour which was one of the main factors that led to the country’s Civil War.
