The Union was feared and hated in the South primarily because it threatened the Southern way of life, which was heavily dependent on slavery and agrarian economics. Many Southerners viewed the Union's opposition to slavery as a direct attack on their social and economic structures. Additionally, the Union's military actions during the Civil War, which included invasions and destruction of Southern property, intensified animosity. This fear and hatred were fueled by a strong sense of regional identity and pride among Southerners.
