Well it helped deal with the south and the slavery problem.
an agriculture economy overly dependent on cotton and slave labor.
The Civil War started because the North wanted to abolish (Destroy) slavery, but the South did not. This was not the only problem the Civil War started. The Civil War started because: A) North wanted Tarrifs, South did not. B) Wanted to get rid of slavery, South didn't C) Decision on whether a new territory would become a Slave or Free state
Tobacco and cotton. It was really the only thing holding the U.S economy together. cheap labor, also.
The lack of strong and efficient leadership was one glaring problem the north faced in the Civil War. With the most effective leaders departing to their home states in the South.

The biggest problem was that they lacked the manpower.

Sharecropping was the main labor system in the South after the Civil War. It seemed like a fair idea, but it ended up very similar to slavery. It would keep the laborer in constant debt.
The term Antebellum South refers to the period before the start of the Civil War. The South had an agrarian economy that relied heavily on slave labor.
Cotton influenced the development of slavery in the South before and during the civil war by creating a larger and larger need for manual labor in the south that the residents could not fill to make a profit on cotton. Back then cotton was "King" in the south and there was high demand from other European nations for it. The obvious answer for this problem was to find more men willing, or forced to, do manual labor. So, instead of taking in 11 million illegal immegrants like we do they used slavery to fuel there cotton buissness. By:Genious
Yes, South Carolina did have slave labor before the Civil War. Slavery was integral to the economy of the southern states, including South Carolina, as it provided cheap labor for plantations producing crops like cotton and tobacco. The institution of slavery in South Carolina was also deeply intertwined with the social, political, and cultural fabric of the state.
North. South was mainly agricultural.
Blacks in the South lacked the basic rights held by whites
Not really, if it was a problem for anyone it would be the south in the end. The south at the end of the war would have virtually no factories for ammunitions, while the union had no problem getting ammunition because they had so many factories.
Well it helped deal with the south and the slavery problem.
It helped make the south very rich. The only problem is that that industry depended on the sweat and labor of slaves and when slavey ended so did the South's fortunes.
