A. tobacco
The spread of the tobacco industry in the English colonies of North America is most often associated with the early development of slavery. Tobacco cultivation required a large labor force, and enslaved Africans were brought to work on plantations in the Chesapeake region to meet the growing demand for this cash crop.
