Distribution of Slave Population, 1790-1820
Critical Thinking Questions
Which states have the highest concentration of slaves in 1790? Which states show up on the 1790 map that might not be expected?
What changes have occurred in the pattern of slave distribution by 1820? Which new states have been admitted to the union with slave populations? Which states that had slave populations in 1790 no longer do so?
Assess the changes in slave distribution during the period 1790-1820. What accounts for these shifting patterns? Speculate about the importance of these shifts.
