Eh the poorer white were fine with it because they sure as poo poo didn't want to do plantation labor.

Strudel Man posted:They wouldn't be doing the plantation labor, though, surely. A lack of slaves would have hindered the plantation owners, not forced small-scale white farmers onto the plantations themselves. Depending on the economy yeah they would. Places like the south and Haitians whole economy rested on that poo poo. Plus plantations had jobs low class whites could do that wasn't the labor force. Mainly administrative.

EU4 was also barebones. People just tend to forget the problems of the old while highlighting the problems of the new. Paradox is basically how it's always been.

Well I mean it's kind of hard to have a WWII game without Hitler, while it's rather easy not to reference a dude who wasn't even a thing till almost a 100 years later. Well like 30 after the game ends but no one plays that far. CharlestheHammer fucked around with this message at 09:52 on Mar 17, 2017 |
