Answer:
Explain, in a paragraph of your own words, what you consider to be the “#1 Cost of the American Civil War.”
I think that the number one cost of the conflict was economic. Just 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. Also if you 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 you’ll need to pay all these soldiers. This is why I think that the number one cost of the war was economic.
Was the cost of the war higher for the North or the South? Be sure to consider the social, political, and economic effects of the war.
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, they lost the most human capital and had more government expenses. Third, all the slaves were freed, although this is a good thing all the rich people that used them to sell their products had lost all of their employees. Fourth, there 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.
