It is widely known that the Confederate army including the army from nothern America, were rotten shots and it said that 'they could not shoot a barn house if they were in one'. only 5% of the war was combat. the confederate army had a few good generals one which they had shot,while on a hunting expedition.
They did, however ,have to invented stronger gunpowder than of their enemies which they had extracted from stale pee.
it also widely known that at one crucial battle at the start of the war, the confederate army didn't even know how to load a gun,let alone fire one.37000 rifles were left abandoned on the battlefield.
overall, basic training and practicing of their shooting would be a improvement.
also i think a few lessons on how to load a rifle would go amiss either.

∙ 6y agoThere were several ways for the Confederacy to enhance their military forces. Among the most evident was to allow and enlist Blacks into their armed forces. This they did do in 1865 but it was far too late. Another improvement would have been for President Jefferson Davis to appoint a general in chief early in the war. Finally, and far too late Davis appointed Robert E. Lee as the South's general in chief.

How did the Union Army increase?
It didn't much. The Union draft act did not bring in many dependable troops. Your question probably means How did the Union army reduce the Confederate army by comparison? That was done by U.S. Grant ending the system of prisoner exchange. After that the Confederates could not replace their losses. The final surrender stemmed directly from this.

What is the south called?
Its almost always called the Confederate Army, or the Rebel Army. That's a title that covers all the men who served the Confederacy as soldiers. The Rebels had two main field armies, and several smaller ones. In the east, in Virginia, the main army was the Army of Northern Virginia, commanded by Robert E. Lee. Its usual opponent was the Union Army of the Potomac. West of the Appalachian Mountains was the other main Rebel Army, the Army of Tennessee. To be technical, when the Confederates set up their government, they thought they were making a permanent country. They did things pretty much as had been done in the US. There were a few thousand men at most, quite a few of the high-ranking officers, who were really in the Army of the Confederate States of America. This was intended to be the "regular army" of the Confederacy and these men were professional, career soldiers. All the rest of the hundreds of thousands of men who served the Rebel cause were actually in the "Provisional Army of the Confederate States", usually abbreviated PACS. This recognized that they were really wartime volunteers, not career soldiers, and when the war was over they would go back to doing whatever they had done before the war.

What northern general did george meade surrender to?
Meade never surrendered. If he had done, it would have been to a Confederate. Meade was commander of the Army of the Potomac, and victor of Gettysburg, only days after being appointed Army commander. He continued in command until the surrender at Appomattox. Some say he should have taken Lee's surrender, as his opposite number. But Grant took the surrender, as General-in-Chief (also Lee's opposite number in that capacity). But at that rate, Lee should strictly have surrendered all Confederate forces, not just the Army of Northern Virginia.
