Answer 1

The Northern states were more industrial than the Southern states. The North relied on industry for its economy, but they did have an agricultural element. The Northern states fought to preserve the Union and eventually to abolish slavery. The Union also had a higher population and because of their factories the military was well supplied throughout the war. The border states were made up of states that were under Union control, some by force such as martial law. Most people in border states were supportive of the Confederacy, however, and would allow Confederate Armies to come through. The border states also exported some agricultural products to the South. The Southern states economy ran on agriculture and were less industrial than the North. The Southern states fought to preserve their way of life, to uphold slavery, and to govern themselves without the federal government interfering as much as it did in the Union. The Confederate states' most important export was cotton, however their production of cotton decreased during war time. The Southern states also had a smaller population. Near the end of the war the Confederacy began running out of money resulting in the Confederate military needing to scavenge for supplies.
