Why did the Confederacy have so much trouble organizing for the war

History
1 answer:
astra-53 [7]3 years ago
7 0
The political, economic, and military strength of the Union was much greater than that of the Confederacy. However, the war did last four years. The Confederacy proved itself resilient on many occasions. Throughout the war the tide constantly shifted, and with that so did the political, economic, and military strength of either side. Although each side had its share of military successes, in the end, the superior Northern economy, centralized government and overwhelming manpower would eventually lead to victory. In mid 1863, both the Union and the Confederacy could have won the war although; the Confederacy lacked the industry, or manpower to wage a long war with the Union.

The Union was far more industrialized than the South. The North possessed 80% of total U.S. industry. In addition, most Confederate industry was located in the Upper South-particularly in Virginia. The Confederacy lost a great deal of potential industry and manpower when West Virginia, Kentucky, Delaware, and Maryland joined the Union instead of the Confederacy. The loss of these states to the Union was as much a testament to shrewd northern politics (Maryland) as it was to opposition within the states (West Virginia). Confederate industry, especially with the loss of these states, was unable to compete with the Union.

In addition to the South's lack of industry, most capital was invested in slaves and land-both of these are non-liquid. The South's lack of a large supply of liquid capital made it difficult for Southerners to buy munitions for the war effort. As a result of the South's lack of liquid capital the North enjoyed a decided advantage..

<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>Thomas Hobbes.</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

The primary significant figure in the English Enlightenment was the political philosopher Thomas Hobbes, who started his occupation as an instructor but branched out to philosophy about the age of thirty. In Leviathan, Hobbes develops on the creation of man and supports the absolutist control. Because of Hobbes' realistic aspect of human nature, he thought the only kind of administration effective adequately to operate humanity's evil thoughts in line was an independent sovereignty, where a king exercised highest and unchecked authority over his nationals.

Substance use is initially used as a way to gain confidence medicate fears and fit into social groups
vova2212 [387]

It is true that substance use is initially used in order to gain confidence, medicate fears, and fit into social groups. Nowadays, the usage of different substances is being misunderstood by most of the people. They are using it as a part of their daily routine, which may lead to abusing the substances. We must put it in mind that all drugs are poison; it is the dosage that made the difference of the several effects of the drug. It is given that all of the recreational drugs are bad for our health; the problem is the misconception of the people that are depending on those drugs. In order to avoid the side effects of the drugs, the first step is to avoid the temptation of using any substance, because you could gain self-esteem and fit into the set of norms without you trying it. It is up to your own view of life.
