The North had a population of 22 million people against the 9 million in the South (of whom almost half were slaves.)
The North was more industrial and produced 94 percent of the USA’s pig iron and 97 percent of its firearms. The North even had a richer, more varied agriculture than the South.

The increase in the trade of silver during the period between 1550 and 1800 is due to the fact that silver was started to be used as a standard currency for trade purposes. Even though it was not considered as "legal tender", as it would later be used for this purpose with the introduction "Bimetallism" in the 19th century, it was widely adopted as a tool for trade among the civilizations that existed at the time.
