Who led slaves revolts in Virginia which led to harsh fugitive slaveslaws?

The most notable leader of slave revolts in Virginia was Nat Turner, who led a significant uprising in August 1831. Turner's rebellion resulted in the deaths of approximately 60 white individuals and heightened fears among slaveholders. In response, Virginia and other Southern states enacted harsher fugitive slave laws and tightened regulations on enslaved people to prevent future uprisings. These measures reflected the growing tensions surrounding slavery in the antebellum United States.


What event in 1859 increased tension between the north and the south?

The event in 1859 that significantly increased tension between the North and the South was John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry. Brown, an abolitionist, led a group in an attempt to seize a federal armory to incite a slave uprising. The raid heightened Southern fears of Northern aggression and the potential for widespread slave revolts, while many in the North viewed Brown as a martyr for the abolitionist cause. This incident deepened the divide between the two regions, contributing to the growing sectional conflict that would lead to the Civil War.

How did Haiti fail to thrive in the years after it won its independence?

After gaining independence in 1804, Haiti faced significant challenges that hindered its ability to thrive. The nation was diplomatically isolated, as many countries, particularly in the West, refused to recognize its sovereignty due to fears of slave revolts. Additionally, Haiti was burdened by a substantial indemnity payment to France in 1825, which crippled its economy. Internal political instability, including coups and dictatorial regimes, further exacerbated the situation, preventing the development of a stable governance structure and economic growth.

Probably. However, uprisings like Nat Turner, Gabriel Prosser and Denmark Vessey increased fear among white Southerners.
