False

From what I understand about the southern colonies I think they wer quite rich

False,

The Southern colonies grew cash crops using slaves. Some of these crops include tobacco, indigo, and cotton. They were actually one of the richest areas. Since they grew such valuable crops, they made so much money. So much money was made that they even got more than what was expected.

Have a nice day! :)
