During the American Civil War, the volunteer-soldiers on both sides of the conflict were typically motivated by one quite simple, but also quite powerful, reason: to defend their way of life. For both Northern and Southern volunteers, the war was certainly a complex and confusing thing. Yet in many cases the decision was made to lend support to their side for the sake of maintaining the "status quo" in their homes such as they had always known it to be.

They wanted the money to be earned. They were patriotic and wanted to defend their country and/or their state. They wanted to protect their current lifestyle and manner of doing business.
