The South relied on agriculture, especially cotton and tobacco , and used slave labor to do much of the work. The North concentrated on manufacturing and did not use slave labor.

The North had extensive railroad connections- the South had few railroads.

The Southerners were mostly Protestants of Scotch- English- Northern Irish decent. The North had more diverse backgrounds- people from Germany, Sweden,

Holland, Irish Catholics and elsewhere, as well as the English.
