The Northern States had more water due to the Great Lakes, its rivers, lakes and it's seacoast.

The South also had much water due to its share of the Mississippi River and its huge coastline that ran from Virginia to New Orleans.

Was the south conservative or liberal during the civil war?

The South held the views of the British abolitionists of slavery emancipation. To suggest that the Confederacy was a British plot only implies that the South was conservative at that time. But, the American Revolutionary War defending against the tyrannical Kingdom of Great Britain helps us understand it better. The claim that the North, during the civil war, was liberal does not hold water since the North, during the revolutionary war was primarily against large government. Eventually, the secession, the unionizing of the colonies and creating individual state government, and the power of the people coming together to overthrow an oppressive government, the British, would prove the North had the conservative values of modern day Republicans.
