What do you think was necessary for southerners to rebuild the economy after the war?

The Southerners struggled quite a bit, considering how heavily they relied on the work of slaves. The Southern economy was extremely reliant on farming, so with a loss of slaves came a loss of crops and money. Farmers with large farms and many slaves struggled because all of that work went into their hands. They lost money and workers. Since the economy was so bad after they lost, it was necessary for them to create new inventions that would help them farm. With the help of machines and tools, the farms became much more manageable. Along with this, farmers needed to learn faster techniques for farming. With efficient techniques, machines, and tools, the Southern economy started to rebuild itself. Farmers once reliant on other people learned to hire workers and become more independent, which helped the economy.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.  

the answer is c.

i hope this .
