Look up the Highland Clearances on Wikipedia, when the elites of the educated southern Scots near the border of England burned the highland Scots peasants out of their huts to make them migrate south, live in squalid tenements and work in factories near the ports of Glasgow and Edinburgh to support the Industrial Revolution. It's sort of like our corporations today hiring H1b's or encouraging illegal immigration.

I'm thinking this low cost labor thing has had a lot of influence on a lot of conflicts, the Civil War being no exception.

Yep; it’s all economics. That’s why Trump’s approach to urban disorder—a stronger economy with more jobs so everyone including blacks can afford to live regular lives and take care of their children—is the better way than the Democrats’ usual “soak the rich to give the blacks a fish” approach.
