The basic wealth of the North was in their ability to manufacture products from raw materials. Thus we have the North importing cotton for example to have the North's textile mills produce clothing and other products. The North also had a machinery building industry that used iron ore and coal to keep the steel mills working and producing, as example, rails for the expanding railroad industry. The North also had a ship building industry and a fishing industry. Certain States and territories grew grains such as wheat and barely.

The North also had a "weapons" building sector as well. In addition New York City was becoming a greater financial center. The construction industry was also a plus for the North.
