The Union Army outnumbered the Confederate Army by a great amount, although locally the numbers could favor either side. The Civil War saw over 2.1 million soldiers join the Northern armies, compared to fewer than 800,000 in the South. Ultimately, this disparity allowed Union generals to sustain greater casualties and still prevail.

-Approximately 22 million civilians
-3 to 3.5 million males of military age
Confederate States:
-Approximately 9 million civilians
-1/3 of whom were slaves
