C. southern Mississippi
Southern Mississippi was part of the antebellum "Cotton Belt" with fertile soils and a plantation economy based on enslaved labor. The other areas listed (mountainous western Virginia, swampy southern Florida, and less-developed western Tennessee) were far less dominated by large cotton plantations.
