How many soldiers were drafted into the civil war?
During the American Civil War, approximately 2.75 million soldiers served in the Union and Confederate armies. While many enlisted voluntarily, both sides also implemented draft laws. The Union's Conscription Act of 1863 allowed for the drafting of men, resulting in about 400,000 individuals being drafted, while the Confederacy also enacted its own draft, which included around 200,000 soldiers. Overall, the draft played a significant role in supplementing the ranks of both armies during the conflict.
What were the main differences between the draft laws of the Union and the Confederacy?
Well, honey, the main difference between the draft laws of the Union and the Confederacy was that the Confederacy implemented conscription much earlier in the game, while the Union took its sweet time getting on that bandwagon. Also, the Confederacy exempted certain groups like overseers and planters, while the Union was like "nah, everyone's gotta serve." So basically, one side was all about that early bird special, while the other side was like "equality for all...except y'all exempt rich folks."

What statement explains why the confederacy did not draft slaves and free blacks into the army?
The Confederacy did not draft slaves and free blacks into the army primarily due to a belief in white supremacy and the fear that arming enslaved individuals would lead to rebellion.

In 1865, near the war's end, the Confederacy did consider enlisting slaves as soldiers, but by then, it was too late to make a significant impact.
