As the US Civil began and during it as well, the Union had a much larger industrial and manufacturing base then did the South. The North had access to mining iron ore and had protected ports in which warships could be built with safety.
Clearly, the Union states had a superior advantage in manufacturing capability and iron ore production.Prior to the US Civil War, the South did not need industry as it was a basically agricultural economy. This became a problem for the South as the war wore on.
