The South faced greater difficulties in recovering from the Civil War due to its economy's heavy reliance on agriculture, particularly cotton, which was devastated by the war and the abolition of slavery. Infrastructure was severely damaged, with railroads, cities, and farms in ruins, hampering economic revival. Additionally, the South experienced political and social upheaval during Reconstruction, facing challenges in integrating formerly enslaved individuals into society and governance, which further complicated recovery efforts. In contrast, the North had a more diversified economy and better infrastructure, allowing for a quicker rebound.

The Southern states struggled to recover from the US Civil War because the war was fought mainly in the southern states.
