Sugar was so high in consumer demand and addicting that in certain areas an average person would consume sixteen pounds a year. Evidence of this is shown in document G. The document conveys the annual per capita consumption ( in pounds ) from the year 1700 to the year 1770 in England. When analyzing document C, readers realize that the high amount of consumption is due to sugar’s highly addictive property. This document written by Benjamin Moseley, M.D. in the year 1800 states, “¬¬¬The increased consumption of sugar, and increasing demand for it, exceeded all comparison with any other article,

During particular time periods whichever product rose to popularity, whether it be cotton, rum, tobacco, or sugar, became the means of buying and selling or trading.

It was hard for the Hawaiians to make sugar alone, so they took immigrants from other countries to help the Hawaiians but there was many struggles to in this years of boom.Plantation life in Hawaii in the 1800 was difficult. Living conditions in Hawaii were severely poor, working conditions were painful, and racism was treated unfairly.

The British had many territories under their control with the qualities to grow sugar. In document 1 it shows that there are roughly 14 territories that were under British control. Also in document 2 it shows the ideal climates for the production of sugar and Jamaica and Barbados which are two of the 14 territories under the British control show that those territories have the perfect climate to grow sugar. The evidence provided is proof that since the British had so many territories with the qualities to grow sugar could have helped contribute to the reason the sugar trade was made.

2.During the years 1860-1890, Michigan's commercial development was dominated by the sawing, harvesting, milling and marketing of timber. Michigan politicians (under the influence of the state's Lumber Barons) fought hard to stop a bill that would have allowed Canadian lumber to enter the U.S. duty free. The lumber was desperately needed to rebuild a major American city after what terrible disaster?

In the early 1800’s, the economic conditions of both the North and South of the United States were very different. After the war of 1812, the United States’ economy rapidly grew at an astonishing rate. Both the North and South experienced a period of wealth as there was a time of increased trade, population growth and expansion which stirred economic growth. The economic development of the North and South also led to the rapid growth of cities. The economic conditions of the North and South can be seen as one of the major differences of the two during that time period. Both economies produced different materials due to the difference in locations of the North and South which resulted in the development of two different economies. Overall,

With the economic system, the south had a very hard time producing their main source “cotton and tobacco”. “Cotton became commercially significant in the 1790’s after the invention of a new cotton gin by Eli Whitney. (PG 314)” Let

Good Afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Today, my first topic is about the Louisiana Purchase, which many forget is a significant event in our history. It is us job to remind people of the importance through our new book. Stretching from the Mississippi River to the Rocky Mountains and from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada, the Louisiana Purchase covered 828,000 square miles of fertile land. As a result of the additional rural land, the Louisiana Purchase led to an encouraged production of staple goods for international market, rather than subsistence goods, contributing towards profit in the economy. "As the Purchase opened the Mississippi to commerce, subsistence farming in the southern reaches of the valley began to be replaced by staple production

	Chapter two, as the name implies, discusses the steps taken in the production of sugar, and how those steps evolved and spread throughout the world. Mintz begins on page 19 by giving the reader the basic definition of sucrose, "an organic chemical of the carbohydrate family." He continues by describing the history of sugar cane and the history of production. He then goes on to describe the economics of sugar production and how it directly affected world economics. A very important fact discussed in this chapter relates sugar to the evolution of capitalism. Mintz contends that as sugar becomes less of a symbol of power and more of a common item for the common person, that mercantilism begins to die out. As this happens, capitalism begins to play more heavily on the
