History
In 1663, King Charles II of England granted the lands of North and South Carolina to eight English lords. In 1670, the first European settlement was founded in South Carolina – Charles Taunt (modern Charleston). In 1729, the Carolinas were divided into North and South. South Carolina became an independent royal colony.
After the end of the Revolutionary War, the colony became the eighth state of the new state. South Carolina was an agricultural state dominated by cotton slave plantations. In 1860, South Carolina became the first Southern state to secede from the United States in protest against the abolition of slavery. About 60,000 residents of the state participated in the Civil War. After the lost war began the period of Reconstruction. Industrialization began in the state. In agriculture, cotton was replaced by the production of soybeans and corn.
