Answer:

Barbados

Step-by-step explanation:

The Carolina colony was introduced to the plantation system by Barbadian immigrants, who also used African slave labor. Before English colonists ever arrived in Charles Town in 1670, Carolina had already developed a plantation economy and enslavement of Africans.
