The major problems, in general, that were faced during the Civil War were that the North overpowered the South. The North had a much larger population which means more troops, more ports in which to trade (economic), more railroad control and all the naval experience. The only thing that the North did not have was as much land. Slavery was also a big issue during this time because the South was mainly ran by slaves. When Abraham Lincoln was elected, he supported anti-Slavery and rejected the Crittenden Compromise which was - the plan that called for the old Missouri Compromise line to be west through remaining and North of line, slavery would be illegal and south of line slavery could expand. Lincoln immediately rejected, and many people(mainly South) were very angry.
