During the American Civil War, the South sought support from Europe primarily to secure diplomatic recognition and military assistance. The Confederacy hoped that European powers, particularly Britain and France, would intervene on their behalf due to their reliance on Southern cotton for textile production. Additionally, the South aimed to establish trade relationships that would help sustain its economy during the war. Ultimately, such support was crucial for the Confederacy's strategy to gain legitimacy and resources against the Union.

False. Southerners needed to sell their products, particularly cotton, in Europe to raise money for the war effort.

The economic ties to Europe were crucial for sustaining the Southern economy during the Civil War.
