(8) As a result of the Nullification crisis, the Mexican War took place. Many Mississippians volunteered to fight with much enthusiasm. After nearly two years of war, America won. (11) From 1840-1860 Mississippi’s population doubled to almost 800,000 residents and by 1860 Mississippi’s institutions were hopelessly entangled in the web of slavery. The cotton based agriculture increased the need for slaves and by the eve of the Civil War slaves represented 55 percent of the state’s total population.

The Delta had risen from a swampy wilderness through its heyday as the New South’s Old South to its post-New Deal status as a planter’s paradise, where those who reaped the benefits of a rapidly modernizing plantation economy also managed to maintain their dominance in social and political sphere. Agriculture remains the backbone of the region 's economy, but farms that once required hundreds of people have become more technical. In the Delta, cotton was once king and many people became dependent upon the development of cotton, and now cotton no longer need someone to pick it, farmers have target the growth of livestock, soybeans, sweet potatoes to make profit. By the late 1980s to 1990s, the proportion of all jobs in natural resources and manufacturing had decline from 31 percent to 29 percent in the Delta. Recently, U.S. Department of Labor has proven that the unemployment rate in Tallahatchie County was about 10 percent, reaching a year high of about 13.5 percent by the mid of 2010.
