While both Northerners and Southerners believed they fought against tyranny and oppression, Northerners focused on the oppression of slaves while Southerners defended their own right to self-government.
Northerners were Billy Yanks; Southerners were Johnny Rebs.
In the US, I don't believe the whole of Northerners is friendlier than the whole of Southerners and vice versa. There are regions of both parts of the US whereas the people tend to be friendlier, but there are mean and off putting attitudes all over the country.

the Anaconda Plan and Sherman's march both starved, not only soldiers, but also women and children to death. This had a dramatic psychological affect on southerners. It made them become even more furious and increased their urge for revenge and perhaps a future war, in order to get back at the Northerners.

Not to be confused with the Vietnam War, because that was not a civil war (two separate nations fought that war). The US Civil War involved strictly Americans (Northerners vs Southerners); was Congress to pay both adversaries, both Northerners & Southerners? When the Southerners were actually committing treason by attacking their own US Government? Thus the official name of the American Civil War..."The War of the Rebellion" (Rebellion against the US Government). Thus, the US Congress had to either pay just the Northerners (Federal, Union, Yankee Armies, US Army, US Navy, etc.) or both...THEY WERE BOTH AMERICANS. This may have caused "a problem" for the US treasury department.
