After the Civil War, the economics of the South were primarily limited by the destruction of infrastructure and the loss of labor due to the abolition of slavery. The plantation system, which relied heavily on enslaved labor, was dismantled, leading to a significant decline in agricultural productivity. Additionally, the lack of access to capital and investment hindered industrial development, while social and political instability further stifled economic recovery. These factors collectively contributed to the South's prolonged economic struggles during the Reconstruction era and beyond.
During the Civil War, the South possessed approximately 10% of the nation's industrial capacity. This disparity was reflected in the South's limited manufacturing capabilities, which were largely focused on agriculture rather than industrial production. The North, with its more developed infrastructure and industrial economy, held the majority of the country's factories and resources. This imbalance significantly impacted the war efforts of both regions.
