Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Reasons why: 1!. Industry North 110,000 factories South-- 1,800 2!. Industrial Workers N!. 1!.3 million South 110 thousand 3!. firearms the n had 32 guns for every 1 the S had!. 4!. manpower the north had about 15 million the south had about 1/3rd that!. 5!. leadership the North had Lincoln who would do anything/everything to win the south had davis who was a victim of his own government's philosophy of "state rights" which limited his ability to act as a wartime president!. 6!. Opening statement: Ideas and beliefsare nice but God is on the side of Big Industry!. The South has motivation but motivation will not stop a bullet!. The south did not have the manpower, industry nor the leadership in its central Government that the North had!. The North wore the South down and once Lincoln was able to: a!. change the emphasis of the war from saving the union to freeing the slaves the moral war was won by the north!. The south had no friends in Europe after the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863!. b!. Found the right General in US Grant who simply ran the South's army down, under RE Lee until it broke under the pressure!. c!. Remember the North really used ALL of its available manpower unlike the south, it was not a total war in the North either!. The North literally fought the war with 1 hand tied behind its back!. It took 4 years but the outcome was never in doubt about who would win if the war was allowed to be finished all it needed was the will and the determination to finish the job!. Lincoln had the will and Grant provided the way!. Hope that helps!. packers!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Like George W Bush years later, many Northerners firmly believed that god was on their side, that Abolition was a moral battle!. The North had a greater population, greater wealth, and more territory than the South!. It was more industrialized; the South was mostly rural!. The South depended heavily on the British and French for resources (selling cotton), but the North was more self-sufficient!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
