1. Old South

   Geographically, the U.S. states known as the Old South are those in the Southern United States that were among the original Thirteen Colonies. The region term is differentiated from the Deep South and Upper South. From a cultural and social standpoint, the "Old South" is used to describe the rural, agriculturally-based, slavery-reliant economy and society in the Antebellum South, prior to the American Civil War (1861–65), in contrast to the "New South" of the post-Reconstruction Era.

1. old south

   The Old South refers to the Southern United States, particularly during its antebellum period before the American Civil War (1861-1865). This term is often associated with the region's history of slavery, agricultural plantations, and its secession from the Union. During this time, the South had a distinct social structure and class system, predominantly rural, with a largely agrarian economy primarily based on cotton cultivation by enslaved African Americans.

Examples of old south in a Sentence

1. Van Seggelen:

   Why bring a 16-year-old South American to Europe ? Because you want to exploit the player and you can make money out of this player, i can not imagine that a 16-year-old in Brazil really wants to leave his parents and go to a strange country where it's always raining.

2. Eusebius McKaiser:

   I think the desire for the photo to be inauthentic speaks to an underlying belief that the flag is tainted by the association with Dylann Roof, this assumption, in turn, is deeply tragic because it (re)imagines the old South African flag as a symbol of dignity.

3. Clark Gable, Gone With the Wind:

4. Eusebius McKaiser:

   The old South African flag symbolizes brute anti-black racism, and its longer colonial history from which it flows, to that extent, the antiquated and divisive symbolism of the Confederate flag in the U.S. finds ideological affinity with the old South African flag. Both flags show off past injustice and neither flag represents the idealism of breaking from divisive pasts in search of new, inclusive realities.
