Weapon technology had advanced but the commanders still used old military tactics on the field. Rifles could shoot further and more accurately than in previous wars. Pistols that fired multiple shots and repeating rifles came into use in battle for the first time. Artillery also became more accurate and were more mobile, allowing them to get closer to the enemy. With the advance in weapons, there was little advance in treatment of the wounded. Field hospitals had not been used before the war. Anesthesia and medicines were still not used to any great extent. More soldiers died in battle. The largest killer was disease---not combat. This could be attributed to lack of medical technology, prevention of disease and exposure to elements. Before the war, the civilian population did not travel and mingle with other people or other climates. During the war, people were exposed to diseases that were new to them and to different climates.
Civil War battles had high casualty rates due to a combination of factors such as the use of outdated military tactics, the introduction of more deadly weapons like rifled muskets and artillery, and the lack of effective medical care on the battlefield. The nature of warfare during this time, with soldiers standing in lines and facing each other at close range, contributed to the high number of casualties.

The Civil War had a major impact on the American population. Families were divided due to conflicting opinions on whether to support the Union or the Confederate. However, the Civil War was also one of the few wars fought on American soil; World War I and (most of) World War II were fought in the European and Asian theaters.
At least 618,000 Americans died in the Civil War, and some experts say the toll reached 700,000. The number that is most often quoted is 620,000. At any rate, these casualties exceed the nation's loss in all its other wars, from the Revolution through Vietnam. For that reason, the Civil War is considered our bloodiest war.

A country is typically considered developed if it has a high standard of living, advanced infrastructure, strong economy, high literacy rates, affordable healthcare, and a high level of industrialization and technological advancement. Other indicators may include low poverty rates, high life expectancy, and high levels of education and innovation.
The three types of survivorship curves are Type I, which is characterized by high survival rates throughout most of the lifespan; Type II, which represents a relatively constant mortality rate over the organism's lifespan; and Type III, which features high early mortality rates and lower rates of mortality as individuals age.
Central America is a developing world and has high infant mortality rates. The US is a developed country with low infant mortality rates. The literacy level in Central America (as a whole) is very low compared to the United States. Although, Costa Rica has a high literacy rate.

They probably had a pretty good idea it would. By then, major battles like Shiloh and Antietam showed that these major battles would have high casualty rates. It was earlier in the war that people were taken by surprise by casualty high rates.
