The sooth was all but destroyed. It was also bankrupt. Hope this helps :)

They were the ones to lose the war, and had more destruction and damage caused to them, especially Georgia. They also had to go through "reconstruction" to reenter the United States before they could repair all the damage.

The Southern recovery after the US Civil War was difficult in that so many of its men had been killed and injured beyond compare. The was also a large number of fatherless families. Another problem was its economy. Most of it was destroyed in the war. In fact it was not until 1900 that the Southern economy was 75% of the economy in 1860.Political problems also overshadowed the Reconstruction Era. Hate groups like the Ku Klux Klan were killing Blacks and causing anti-Yankee Propaganda. These horrible distractions hampered the Southern recovery.
