You mean you aren't praying before - and during - and thanking the Lord after you realize you survived?

The southern states have their own accent, culture, history and climate that's different from the northern states. In the 1800's, the country became divided when the southern states refused to give up slavery because their main product was agriculture and and all those slaves kept their farms/plantations running. That's what sparked the american civil war 1861-1865. The north won, led by president Abraham Lincoln who abolished slavery for good in the US.

Certainly a "nutshell" version of History and the cause(s) of the Civil War. There are many interesting facts that very rarely get published/taught about the Civil War/ ownership of slaves, and the "causes" of the Civil War. Here is one interesting fact that I dare say few people were ever taught in School:

(excerpt)

Which is as I would expect. Blacks like to claim that when Blacks owned slaves, they did so only for humanitarian reasons, for “good” reasons, which justified the “technical” slave status of whomever had been purchased. But the truth is that Blacks used slavery to apply pressure or punishment on others. For example:

Some of these husbands were not anxious to liberate their wives immediately. They considered it advisable to put them on probation for a few years, and if they did not find them satisfactory they would sell their wives as other slaveholders disposed of Negroes. For example, a Negro shoemaker in Charleston, South Carolina, purchased his wife for $700; but, on finding her hard to please, he sold her a few months thereafter for $750, gaining $50 by the transaction.​
