Eli Whitney created the modern
Cotton Gin
in 1793. Because this automated the laborious
cotton
picking that many
southern colonial plantations
earned their living from, it was a huge boost to the
Southern American Colonies
economically, as well as making him a perenial favourite in
high school history
tests.
