They had less people, no industrial base, a single commodity that could easily be replaced, and less of pretty much everything. They wern't that's your opinion. They had farmlands that the Union couldn't grow, that's why the Northerners took animals from other people's farms for meat. They were tired of having stupid laws where they couldn't pick what they wanted.

Here's some facts: The north had big factorys. The south had big farms. The Union had plenty of farms, in fact, the south grew things they couldn't eat! Plus, food can't do anything when you're against well equipped soldiers who, along with their equipment can be easily replaced...

Plus, there's a central government, it's there so that states don't do stupid BS, which the south did by trying to split away. Sure, it was about "state's rights", but it was about the "state's rights to have slaves." Now you're just insulting where I live. The south grew all kinds of plants, sure they couldn't eat cotton, but they grew many other things. The North didn't have nearly enough farms for a large amount of crops. They had a lot of supplies for the soldiers, but the South lacked good factories. Can we stop debating for a bit? I'm dealing with a lot of sad things rn...
