The white industrialists now required extensive cultivation of cotton to feed the cotton gins and this work could be done at little or on cost only by cotton plantations in the Deep South were highly unhygienic. This prospect was too tempting for the whites to be thrown away by abolition of slavery in the South. The southern Negroes, however, could not bear the torturous burden for a long time and this led to the civil war in the United States that certainly would not have occurred if the cotton industry had remained unscientific. Apart from this, India and Africa appeared to be ready markets for the cloth manufactured in U.K., and this proved a stimulus for the British imperialists to establish colonial rule in these countries and make huge profits through purchase of raw cotton from them at throwaway prices and supply of cloth produced by mills in U.K., at higher rates.
