During the Civil War, the South attempted to compensate for its disadvantages, such as a smaller population and fewer industrial resources, by leveraging its strong military leadership, particularly figures like General Robert E. Lee. They also relied on their knowledge of the terrain and a defensive strategy to prolong the conflict and wear down Northern resolve. Additionally, the South sought to secure foreign support from countries like Britain and France, hoping to leverage cotton exports to gain military and economic backing. Furthermore, they emphasized a strong sense of nationalism and the defense of their way of life to bolster morale and enlistment.
