Many people new to US Civil War history are sometimes puzzled as to why the war took so long for the Union to finalize. On paper, the Union's vast resources almost made a Southern victory impossible. The problem lay with the Union's military organization. It was "vacant" in a manner of speaking. During the first two years of the war, the Union army was diminished by short term enlistments, desertion and sickness. For the Union's sake, it was a good thing that the South was so vastly inferior to the Union, once again on "paper". It's clear that if the South could have convinced Missouri and Kentucky to enter the Confederacy, the outcome of the rebellion might have been different.
