Help with the American war effort
If you mean which Southern state, then I would say Florida. Florida contributed about a dozen regiments to the war effort and had only a few battles fought there. There were many Northern states that did not have one battle at all.
Beaty Ross contributed the American flag.
The Revenue Act of 1861 was introduced in order for the national government to fund the Northern war effort. It was America's first income tax.

Women contributed much to the war effort. While men were at the war front, women had to take the jobs usually reserved for men. Women began working the factories and creating the guns, bullets, aircraft, you name it! Some women even dressed up as men to try to fight for their country. Both women and men contributed much to the Allied victory.

Women contributed to the war effort in different ways. Some women ran family farms or business, they also raised money for the war and collected clothes for the soldiers. Some women became nurses and fought in the war and some followed their husbands in the war and helped out at army camps.

It could depend on which war, but women did not actually go to battle. Women took care of things on the home front.
During World War I, women significantly contributed to the American war effort by taking on roles traditionally held by men, who were away fighting. They worked in munitions factories, served as nurses on the front lines, and filled positions in offices and transportation, helping to maintain essential services. Additionally, women participated in organizations like the Red Cross and the Women’s Army Corps, supporting soldiers and their families. Their efforts were crucial in sustaining the war effort and marked a significant shift in societal roles for women.

It is difficult to answer this question without knowing which war you are asking about. There were women who contributed to a number of wars, in the US and in other countries. For example, in World War II, women who worked in the factories making munitions and war supplies were often referred to as "Rosie the Riveter." Many sources say she was a real woman named Rose Will Monroe. Another important woman who contributed to the war effort was Jacqueline Cochrane-- she was a pilot, and she flew supplies to the troops, as part of a women's aviation corps called the WASPs. And another important woman was Kate Smith-- she didn't fight, but as an entertainer (a very popular singer in that era), she raised millions for war bonds, and did a number of benefit concerts to support the troops.
The northern blockade of southern ports during the American Civil War helped prevent the Confederacy from receiving crucial supplies and aid from foreign countries. This contributed to the economic strain on the southern states and weakened their ability to sustain their war effort.
