Slavery influence in U.S. history given below.

Explanation:

Soon after the discovery of America by Christopher Columbus in 1492, Spanish and Portuguese colonist began to ship slaves from Africa to work in the plantation. In the 1600s after English established themselves as colonies, they also receive slaves from Africa, to grow tobacco. The arrival of slaves in the colonies in America were part of the triangular slave trade, which began during the late 16th to early 19th centuries. After getting independence from Britain, America adopted slavery as they were engaged in plantations of cotton, rice, tobacco etc. The debate and compromise of 1820 over slavery prevented conflict because of the equal balance of power in Congress between slave and non-slave states. Later, it proved to be impossible because both the North and the South had different ideas about slavery. The South wanted slavery as legal while the North wanted it to abolished.
