    You might mention that the North had slaves longer than the south did, just because Maryland was a shithole back then.

    Beg pardon? Maryland’s 1864 constitution banned slavery.

      Sorry, it was Delaware. They got rid of it with the 13th. The south were forced when they lost the civil war. It’s only a separation of a few months, but it’s there.
