    North Carolina and South Carolina. Two states that began their life as a single province and colony of England. So how did we end up with two states that share a single connected piece of land? Well, as with the Dakotas, it boils down mostly to politics. Only this time, it's English politics!

    My parents moved from SC to NC when I was a child and we often went back to visit my Grandmother. Even though we only lived about 50 miles apart you would think it was more like 200 miles. The food, the way we dress and speak are different. Even fruit trees that grew there are not found in NC. Certain foods I loved when visiting my Grandmother we can't find here. Different culture.

      You do understand how climate & growing zones work, yes?
      Also, you have different cultures because the people are from different regions of the UK & Europe. NC originally grew faster, but SC is growing faster now in every way. Charlotte is the biggest city and it's on the border in the middle of the Carolinas so it's kind of a coincidence NC grew faster and that was based on geography.
      FYI SC is infinitely more important in terms of American history.
      Politics played a huge role in both states' development as well. SC was far more utilized for military purposes which hindered economic development. As many military bases were closed in SC since the early 90s the economic development and growth of SC has been bonkers. NC also had more colleges & universities which drive economic growth. SC still only has 2 major universities and Clemson was an all male military school until the late 50s. Raleigh-Durham wouldn't exist if not for crazy amounts of money poured into the area for research & development due to the universities. That's why it's called the research triangle.
      So many of these things are based on random political decisions made over 100 years ago.
      By the way, BBQ started in SC. Whole hog BBQ in particular was born in SC. So "You're welcome!!!"

      South Carolina grows more peaches than Georgia, but Georgia has done an entire marketing campaign around the peach. Georgia actually has a lot more onions than peaches. They should be the onion state!
      You don’t know about growing zones? Clearly you don’t do any gardening. Anyone that gardens or has flowerbeds know about climate zones, growing zones. It’s put out by the USDA. Different plants do well in different zones. I follow 2 excellent TH-cam channels for nurseries in North Carolina. Check out S&K and Gardening with Creekside. You can’t garden or plant flowers unless you know your climate zone.
      South Carolina is actually the only state that has all four types of barbecue sauce because we are the home of true barbecue. And in the south when people think barbecue traditionally that means whole hog. But now because of Texas and the Internet and TV and cooking shows, BBQ can mean almost anything. But I’m 57. Growing up in South Carolina back in the 70s and 80s if someone said BBQ in South Carolina and probably North Carolina that meant whole hog pulled pork barbecue.
      now because of Alabama, there are five sauces because there is that white sauce they have that even places in North Carolina and South Carolina have.

      Well, with the exception of 5 states, all of the states are quite large. It's hard for me to imagine someone visiting NC for the first time and saying "oh my, I didn't realize this state was so big!".
      As a rule, other than the five states I already referred to (Delaware, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Maryland) all of the states are pretty darn big. North Carolina is about as big as Ireland, if not bigger, and anyone who's ever seen a map would know that.

    The original colony was very large and the North were culturally very different from the South. North Carolina was settled by small-scale farmers migrating from Virginia. The farmers worked the land and primarily grew tobacco. Slavery was not very important.
    South Carolina was a plantation economy settled by an aristocracy that migrated from the West Indies. They grew sugar and cotton and relied on slave labor.

    • @thunderbird1921
      @thunderbird1921 ปีที่แล้ว +30

      Eventually though, a planter aristocracy formed across nearly the entire antebellum South. The whole region became a neo-feudalist system, with the powerful plantation owners dominating the smaller farmers and few non-agricultural aspects of the communities. The slaves served two purposes: One as ready and widely available source of labor for unlimited workloads, and two, to keep the wages and influence of the poor whites down (by denying them wider job opportunities, etc.). By doing this, the planter elites could ensure their power would always be safe, culturally and politically. This is why they FREAKED THE HECK OUT after the Confederacy lost the Civil War, because the freed blacks and poor whites began forming political alliances as they were both fed up with mistreatment and elitist tyranny (one of the most famous was the Readjuster Party in Virginia, and North Carolina famously had one too). This is the REAL reason Jim Crow and racism were so stirred up in the South in the years that followed, because the plantation elites were on the brink of having their whole societal model overthrown. Many of these alliances were smashed by brute force through "bully boys" and other mob-like forces.

LOOK THROUGHOUT CENTRAL/SOUTH AMERICA (THE OLMECS/MAYANS); THERE WERE/ARE ARTIFACTS THAT DEPICT AMERICANS AS COLORED/COPPER-COLORED. "NEGRO" IS SIMPLY ANOTHER WAY OF SAYING "BLACK" IN SPANISH, AND MOST OF THE EARLY EXPLORERS FROM EUROPE WERE SPANIARDS & ITALIANS. I'M SURE THEY KNEW WHAT AFRICANS LOOKED LIKE...

      I'm a 14th generation South Carolinian who's read on the history of the state since I was a child, and there was no such battle. There has always been friction between the Upstate and the rest of the state, but any battles that took place were political or in college football, i.e. Clemson vs. USC. You may be referring to the Regulator Movement, something that took place in both NC and SC, but was kind of the opposite in each. In SC there was too little law enforcement in the Back Country, but when it occurred there was very little settlement in what is today the Upstate; it occurred in the Midlands and Pee Dee regions. The Back Country was defined as anything more than a day's round trip on horseback from Charleston. You can search for "Regulators South Carolina" and find the SC Encyclopedia article for a short history of the event and people.

The Governor General of Canada was the Marquis de Lorne and his wife was Princess Louise Caroline Alberta. A new district was established and the GG wanted it named after his wife. Alas, there were already the States of the Carolinas and Louisiana. The Princess had a third given name “Alberta” and that’s how that western Province received its name!

I know it's hard when you were actually told a lie for so long until the real truth seem like a lie😆 when I traveled outside of the U.S we were look at as being uneducated to Bible history and the true history of my Ancestors lands. I hope that you don't believe in the false photos of Our LORD JESUS CHRIST AKA YESHUA and HIS Apostles I hope that you know the true history of where the original Christians actually begin.....because alot of our people Americans still don't knowthe real Photos......and true history
      Another food for thought: America is not the original name of these lands my Ancestors the originally named it something else before we were robbed of our lands and our true history was actually covered up for a certain privilege.

I was also pleased that I recognized Battery Park (in Charleston) from your aerial shots and knew what city you were showing. There's actually a fairly big difference between the two cultures. South Carolina is a lot more easygoing, whereas North Carolina has much stricter laws about a lot of things. Fireworks and speed limits come to mind immediately.

    North Carolina is my favorite state in the US. It is the perfect balance politically at 50/50 and is not very biased. You can still find Democrats and Republicans getting along well, and whoever they vote for usually wins the election.
    Not to mention, one of the strongest economies in the nation, with the tech giants of the Research Triangle Park around Raleigh and the banking sector in Charlotte creating a strong middle class. Some of the best universities in the nation as well, and you get many environments ranging from Atlantic beaches to the Appalachian mountains. The best people I have found in the US!

    I moved to Wilmington, NC from Colorado in 1989 and I absolutely fell in love with the sweet southern charm of NC from the coast to the mountains, though it was a culture shock to say the least. I felt like I was in Europe somewhere with all the old southern mansions and buildings in downtown Wilmington, the big church bells that would ring throughout the town at noon, and the cobblestone streets. Not to mention being surrounded by water with the Cape Fear River and the Atlantic Ocean. The salt water and Azaleas get in your blood, as well as the sweet smell of Gardenia blooms in the spring. But NC is a culture all its own, from one town to the next the accents are different as well as cultural norms, wildlife and fauna. South Carolina is even more southern feeling to me, and the low country of SC is a special place in the country that is worth all efforts to see and experience.

This is why we still speak the Tribal language, food for thought.... When it comes to the original Black Culture of the Lands in the U.S it don't get no deeper than the Carolinaz...a lot of so called activist and scholars try to speak on our Black Community history but if you did study the Lands of the Carolinaz then you already lost.

    This video explains the history behind the separation of North Carolina and South Carolina. Originally, the two states were part of a single colony named Carolina. In 1663, King Charles II of England issued a charter to a group of eight English noblemen called the Lord Proprietors, granting them the land formerly known as Carolina. However, the colony failed, and it was left in a state of limbo until the charter was granted. The eight Lord Proprietors had big plans for the province, and one of them, Lord Shaftsbury, wanted to create a utopian society known as the grand model. While the Lord Proprietors had big goals for Carolina, the reality is that it was destined to eventually split, and the video explains how it happened. The separation of North Carolina and South Carolina occurred well before the United States ever existed, and it's a fascinating story.

    Roanoke failed because all the colonies in their early years relied on regular ships bringing supplies from home. Unfortunately for Roanoke, it was founded only a few years before the year of the Spanish Armada; in that year Queen Elizabeth forbade any English ships to leave the country. They all had to stay and protect the realm. Sir Walter Raleigh couldn’t send the scheduled ship in 1588, and when he managed to send another ship a year or two later, bad weather kept it from reaching the colony. By the time a ship was finally able to arrive at Roanoke, everyone had starved, or been killed by natives, or had joined with the natives in order to survive. It isn’t the big mystery it has been made out to be.

      When a ship arrived John White who had been sent to England for aid was just a passenger. The clue was there as to their location. Unfortunately, with White a passenger only and bad weather pending travel to the supposed location was not to be. As you note much could have happened. The fact is the colonists were not looked for for 20+years with the success at Jamestown. 20 years added to the age of the original colonists would have been a lifetime. I personally believe some did survive And found themselves integrated with local tribes. DNA science could easily prove this.

    I'm surprised you didn't discuss the geological factors that played a part in the separation of the two states. Rivers are the key transport routes in colonial America.
    Thanks to navigable rivers, South Carolina was better able to export its resources becoming much more wealthy than North Carolina. The barrier islands of North Carolina made what trade it was able to support more dangerous. Plus, the shallow waters and shifting sandbars gave pirates an advantage over larger British warships.
    Geography made North Carolina a haven for pirates, including the infamous "Black Beard". The people of North Carolina even had to ask Virginia for aid because the pirates controlled the North Carolina governor. Meanwhile South Carolina became a wealthy and well protected Crown colony (as you mentioned) that wanted nothing to do with the North Carolina mess.
