Clearly the industrialized Union combined with its safe farmlands had the financial advantage over the Confederacy. In fact the Union went on a crash warship building campaign as it had the resources. Soon enough the Union was able to build a war fleet greater than that of Great Britain. With most of its major ports blockaded, the South had a difficult time of receiving products it needed and the Union blockade suppressed the cash the South could garner from cotton sales abroad. The Union had much more manpower and much more possible revenue than did the South.

The Union had far greater industrial production than the Confederacy, in many ways this helped the Union, not the least of which was in weapons production. Another way this helped were the quantity of textile mills that could produce supplies for soldiers.
