Answer 1

B. The South had highly-experienced military officers, while the North didn't, really.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The North had not got far better military leadership than the South during the Civil War.

Explanation:

During the Civil War, the North surpassed the South in almost all aspects: it had a larger population, therefore also a larger army, and had a larger and more dynamic economy, producing industrial goods, compared to the delayed south, which only exploded its natural resources. But the South had an advantage that could match its possibilities: it had the best army generals in its favor. Robert E. Lee, Joseph E. Johnston and Raphael Semmes were three of the most recognized American military of the time, and all three joined the Confederate cause. On the Union side, only Ulysses Grant was at their height in terms of knowledge of strategy and war tactics.
