Step-by-step explanation:

At a glance, the viewer could see the large-scale patterns of the economic system that kept nearly 4 million people in bondage: slavery was concentrated along the Chesapeake Bay and in eastern Virginia; along the South Carolina and Georgia coasts; in a crescent of lands in Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi

We don't know for sure, but what we think is one of the biggest slave states in Virginia. We don't know for sure how many slaves it had, but we know that there were at LEAST 50,000 slave holders.
