Facts And Figures The war between the
states claimed more casualties than any war the
U.S. has ever participated in--at least 623,026
deaths and 471,427 wounded, for a minimum of
1,094,453. Approximately 388,000, over half, of
all deaths during the war were the result of
disease, not battle. |
 A
Comparison of North and South Resources
Resources in 1860 favored the
North, which had the vast majority of the
population, bank deposits, railroad track, and
factories. But the South had the advantage of
fighting on its own soil and, in the beginning,
better army commanders. |
