the.com/plantation

means A large estate or farm where crops like cotton, sugar, or tobacco are grown on a massive scale, historically worked by enslaved or indentured labor.

from From Latin 'plantare,' to plant. In English, 'plantation' first meant simply the act of planting — then, in the colonial era, it came to mean a settlement 'planted' with people and crops in conquered or claimed land. The word kept its gardening innocence even as what it described turned into forced labor on an industrial scale; the euphemism did a lot of quiet work.
