The north and south had very different ways of life. Their economies were based on very different aspects. The north had an industrial based economy when the south was based on agricultural. The wing party represented the north and democrats represented the south. The south encouraged slavery white the north tried to prevent it from spreading.

Although hard to believe, up until the very late 1840's (approx. 1848) the words North and South actually referred to the opposite of what the do now.

This is due to the original Oval Office being siituated on top of a large magnet, and to avoid the president being corrected by the people he served.

In the North, life was based on technology, whereas in the South, it was based off of slave labor and cotton production. In the North, they made things for themselves, but in the South they traded with Britain.

By then, the North had become the most industrial part of the US. The North had many, many factories, and most of the largest ports in the US were located there too. The South, on the other hand, had many farms and large plantations, were the crops used to make exports in the North came from.

The Southerners grew increasingly dependent on slave labour while the North became more dependent on the new machinery.
