What were the economic differences between the North and South in the 1800s?By 1860, 90 percent of the nation's manufacturing output came from northern states. The North produced 17 times more cotton and woolen textiles than the South, 30 times more leather goods, 20 times more pig iron, and 32 times more firearms. The North produced 3,200 firearms to every 100 produced in the South.
What was the difference between the North and the South in 1800 1860?The major difference between the North and the South -- and the one most responsible for the Civil War -- was the institution of slavery. In the North, slavery was almost universally prohibited by the 1800s, while the institution was a cornerstone of Southern society.
How were the North and South economically and politically different?The northern economy relied on manufacturing and the agricultural southern economy depended on the production of cotton. The desire of southerners for unpaid workers to pick the valuable cotton strengthened their need for slavery.
What were the major differences between the North and South in the 1850s?The south was a lot more rural than the north making a living from plantations and small farms. Most of the south's economy relied on cotton. Only one third of the whole nation's population lived in the south in 1850. There were not many factories or industrial businesses in the south.
