The South had more agriculture than the North during the antebellum period in the United States. The Southern economy was largely reliant on plantation agriculture, specifically cotton, which fueled the demand for slave labor before the Civil War. In contrast, the North had a more diversified economy that included manufacturing, commerce, and some agriculture.
Yes, the North had farms but they were typically smaller and more diversified compared to the large plantations in the South. The North's economy was more industrialized, so agriculture played a smaller role in its overall economy compared to the South.
The North had a more industrial economy with factories and cities, while the South relied heavily on agriculture, particularly cotton cultivation. The North had a larger population and more urban development, while the South had a more rural and agrarian society. The North also had better transportation infrastructure like railroads, which contributed to its economic advantage.
The line that separates the richer north from the poorer south is called the "Mason-Dixon Line." It historically marked the border between the Northern and Southern states in the United States along the lines of slavery and agriculture.
Some physical geographic differences between the north and the south include temperature variation, with the north typically experiencing colder climates compared to the south. Vegetation varies as well, with the north often having more coniferous forests and the south having more deciduous forests. The topography can also differ, with the north having more mountainous regions compared to the flatter terrain of the south.
North Asia is generally more mountainous than South Asia. North Asia includes mountainous regions such as the Altai, Sayan, and Stanovoy mountain ranges, as well as parts of the Himalayas. South Asia also has mountainous areas, such as the Himalayas, but overall North Asia has more extensive mountainous terrain.
The South
The South's economy was based almost entirely on agriculture
Slavery was more important to the South than it was to the North, because the South's economy relied on agriculture.
Yes it is.
Because the North was into manufacturing instead of agriculture as the south was.
The north had more men better factories, plus they had more railroads and better agriculture
South
The South's economy suffered much more than the North's. This was because Southern crops were burned, such as in Sherman's March to the Sea, and the South was heavily reliant on agriculture.
yes the south agriculture the north industrial
Some differences were that the South supported slavery and the North didn't, the South was based on agriculture and the North on industries (like factories), and the South wanted more states' rights while the North supported a federal government.
Yes, the North had farms but they were typically smaller and more diversified compared to the large plantations in the South. The North's economy was more industrialized, so agriculture played a smaller role in its overall economy compared to the South.
Slavery disappeared in the north because they used more factories and they were based on industry rather than agriculture like in the south
