In 1860, life varied significantly based on geography, social class, and occupation. In rural areas, many people engaged in agriculture, relying on manual labor and family support for farming. Urbanization was increasing, with many moving to cities for industrial jobs, leading to crowded living conditions and often poor sanitation. Socially, the period was marked by stark divisions, including issues like slavery in the United States, which would soon lead to the Civil War.
