Best Answer

The south was in ruins. Plantations and farms had been battlefields so crops were gone, railroad ties had been pulled up, cities like Atanta were burned shells, Richmond was gone, slaves had left the plantations to follow Union troops, the men who fought were dead or wounded and the money was bad.
