The Civil War stimulated the growth of the American economy in the North because of war production. Although the South also produced armaments, the economy was ruined because so many of the farmers were away in the Confederate armies. So the price of every type of food, clothing and other basics became scarce and skyrocketed in price. After the Civil War the North's economy saw a boom in the building of the railroads, industry, commerce, and the opening up of the West. The South was defeated and had to be rebuilt. The freeing of the slaves and the horrors of Reconstruction further hindered the growth of the economy. The South's economy was wrecked. The entire region took many decades to recover.
The economy in the South was completely destroyed while in the North it prospered.
The economic damage to the South was severe due to the fact that most of the battles were in Confederate territory. This caused a sometimes deliberate destruction of Southern property. 40% of Southern livestock and half of its farm machinery were destroyed. The economy of the South was so damaged that in 1900, only 75% of its production had been recovered.
