∙ 9y agoYes and no. Both prayed to the same God, and were proud to be Americans. The North was a region of industry, and the South was basically agriculture based. The people of the south agreed in a solid union, but felt each state had individual rights that could not be infringed upon by a central government.The northern soldier was better educated than his Confederate counterpart on average, but was not as martial in habits, not as familiar with the use of weapons or horseback riding. One fact many do not know, although most today use the term "Yankee" to describe the typical Union soldier, during the war, the rebs reserved this term for the soldiers from New England states, often asking mid western soldiers why they were fighting with the hated "Yankees".
