The North had a larger population and thus were able to replace and increase the number of troops in its army; 4. The Confederacy was unable to mount any successful offensives in the North.

The south would most likely have left the north alone. The south was not trying to conquer the entire country, they just wanted recognition as an independent country.

The south just wanted to defend their land until the north got tired of fighting and recognized the south as another country.
