Slavery has made a substantial impact on American history and was the main factor that had provoked the Civil War. Though the outcomes of the war did grant freedom to the slaves, they were not given any rights as humans. Freedmen were continuously oppressed by the ?superior? whites, causing ?freedom? to just be a title with no meaning. Freedmen also faced adversities and disadvantages from racism, segregation, disdain, poverty, and violence for another century before they received equality. Although there were many attempts to bring equality to the blacks in the United States after they gained their freedom, there was minimal support due to the hatred fueled by the differences of skin color.

In Latin America, the hacienda created a complex social order in society. Since most of the land was controlled by haciendas, it also employed most of the population. Each hacienda is distinct, ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of people working/living here. Together, the residents of these haciendas create a village, as some people may be priests, teachers, clerks, accountants, storekeepers, hired shepherds and cattlemen, and families who rent land. Most of the workers however are African slaves or natives, enslaved by those who came from Europe, establishing a lower class.
