Prior to the US Civil War, the Southern economy was primarily based on its cotton crop. This was a major plus for the entire US economy in 1860 for example. Cotton was shipped to Europe and also to Northern textile mills.
Agriculture. Cotton is a huge part of that, especially before the civil war. The south was the biggest exporter of cotton in the world.

A command economy is one that is run by a central authority which has control over every aspect of the economy. The Soviet Union prior to its demise in 1990 had a command economy. (North Korea still has one.) Everyone in the Soviet Union was employed by the state, everyone lived in state assigned housing, everything for sale in the stores was chosen by the state and ordered by the state, and so forth.
Prior to the outbreak of the US Civil War, the Confederacy initiated financial steps to help fund their anticipated war with the Union. In March of 1861, the Provisional Congress of the Confederacy authorized the issuance of treasury notes up to one million dollars. The Confederacy was also bolstered by the $536,000 taken from the former US Mint in New Orleans.
Prior to the US Civil War, the US as a nation prospered with the large agricultural production in the South. Northern textile mills for example had easy access to cotton. Excess crop production in the South was great for the US' balance of trade. The Civil War however, changed everything. With no strong industrial base, the South had to try import finished products. It also had few safe harbors in which to build ships, cargo or warships. They relied on foreign powers like Britain for example to build cruiser type war vessels. The North, on the other hand not only had a strong industrial base but they also had a strong wheat capacity which fed them and allowed also for exports abroad.
This depends entirely on the country. Additionally, prior to modern times, there were a number of countries that did not use wood-pulp based products (like paper) for recording information, so they did not import or export such products.
In the period lading up to the US Cvil War, the North had an emerging industrial economy. The South remained a plantation based agricultural economy with much less industrial capability than the North.
an agriculture economy overly dependent on cotton and slave labor.
just prior to the Civil War
Who was the most Famous spokesman for Blacks prior to the Civil War?

Prior to the Civil War, the Tenth Amendment was used to support
the major crop prior to the civil war was cotton
Prior to the US Civil War, the South's commercial agricultural economy was based on such factors as: A. Plantations worked primarily on cheap slave labor made the South's economy a viable one; B. The two major crops of the South were cotton & tobacco. Both in the Northern US States and in the world's markets, these two crops were in high demand for most of the 1800's before the Civil War; and C. Cotton was essential for textile mills in the North and in Britain. Tobacco was a "recreational" product also in high demand.
The North had a large complex railway system prior to the US Civil War and during it. The South being an agricultural economy relied on river transport to bring cotton and tobacco to their ports for exporting.
An assumption based on prior experience is officially known as inductive reasoning.
