Answer 1

Virginia. ............

Answer 2

Answer;

Virginia

Step-by-step explanation;

-Throughout the colonial period, Virginia had the largest slave population, followed by Maryland. In South Carolina, however, slaves constituted a larger proportion of the total population than in any other colony-sixty percent of the population in 1765.

-Free blacks during the colonial period never accounted for a large proportion of the black population in Virginia, let alone the total population. But until the latter part of the seventeenth century, they enjoyed many of the same rights as free whites.
