Answer:

Virginia

Step-by-step explanation:

Virginia, until the Civil War, was a State that was primarily agrarian, dependent on cotton that was sold to European countries. When the civil war was over, the state gradually began to industrialize. But the state's skyrocketing debt of over $ 50 million meant that the economy had stagnated for decades until the 1930s. Only in the 1920s, more than 400,000 people abandoned the state. Most were African Americans seeking better living conditions in the industrialized north.
