I Have a Few Questions

[My Name Is Kate]

...the people in the South were the Gentry!The drafters of the Constitution were mostly-rich-White Males...

By "gentry" do you mean landed aristocrats? Was that the heritage they brought over from Europe? Did the drafters of the Constitution get rich in this country, or were they already rich when they came here? If they were rich and aristocratic in Europe, why did they want to leave and come here? I thought most people who came to this country were looking for a better life here.

Were most of the drafters of the Constitution Southerners? Were most of the people in the South wealthier than the people in the North in colonial times, and then had that begun to turn around by Civil War times?
