Sagot :

number one cost of conflict was economic. to think that 617,528 people died is not a good thought. Both the Union and the Confederate had to spend a lot of money. The Confederate states spent a lot of money on property damage and the Union lost a lot of human capital. Both the Confederacy and the Union also spent a lot of money on government expenditures.  think about it both the north and south had to pay a lot of money for their troops, Combined they had a total of 2,638,797 soldiers. Imagine how much money they'll need to pay all those soldiers. This is why I think that the number one cost of the war was economically.

By far the Union’s cost was much higher than the Confederacy’s cost. First of all the Union had more troops so they would have to pay more also they lost more troops. Second, the lost the most human capital and had more government expenses. Third, all the slaves were freed, which is a good thing. Fourth, their were many states that did not vote because they seceded. Also everyone disagreed about the future because if everyone thought that only 1 candidate was right then the election would not be as close as it was. In conclusion the Union had a much larger cost because of the war.
