The British were neutral throughout the American Civil War but continued to trade with both sides, until the North blockaded the Southern ports. Even then, the South used blockade runners to trade with Europe. The idea was that the Britain would jump in to help the South because of the cotton industry, but Britain ultimately made it clear they would not be involved in any fighting.
