Imagine you are touring the United States in 1836. You compose an essay describing what you have seen. Based upon this trip, how would you compare and contrast the economies, societies, and cultures of the northern and southern states, east of the Mississippi River? Provide specific examples detailing their economies and societies. In what various ways do people labor in the North and in the South? What are the different classes of people that you find in the North and in the South? What accounts for the differences that you see?
