Question

What were the economic consequences of the civil war

Answer 1

The north wanted the south to change its work gain, such as slavery and change more into industry

Answer 2

There was great wealth in the South, but it was primarily tied up in the slave economy. In 1860, the economic value of slaves in the United States exceeded the invested value of all of the nation's railroads, factories, and banks combined. On the eve of the Civil War, cotton prices were at an all-time high.
