The northern side of the US during civil war 

DURING THE CIVIL WAR, THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE US WHICH WAS ALSO KNOWN AS THE UNION REFERRED TO THE GOVERNMENT OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN AND THE 20 FREE STATES THAT SUPPORTED HIM AND OPPOSED SLAVERY. THE UNION WAS DEDICATED TO DEFEAT AND TERMINATE THE CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA (THE SOUTH)

THE UNION HAS AN ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE DURING THE CIVIL WAR. IN ECONOMICS, THE NORTH WAS ALL ABOUT BIG CITIES AND FACTORIES. THE CIVIL WAR HAPPENED DURING THE FIRST STAGES OF INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION, WHICH WOULD RESULT IN THE UNITED STATES BECOMING ONE OF THE WORLDS LEADING INDUSTRIAL POWERS YEARS LATER. BUT THE UNION WAS LED BY THE PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN, WHICH MEANS THAT ALL THE MONEY MADE FROM THE INDUSTRIES WOULD GO TO THE UNION.

New technologies showing America's emerging industrial greatness were refined the Civil War: the railroad, the steamboat, the telegraph, and the steam-powered printing press

THE UNION COULD BUY MORE EQUIPMENT TO FIGHT.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS THE 16NTH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, WHO SUCCESSFULLY PROSECUTED THE CIVIL WAR TO PRESERVE THE NATION. HE PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN THE PASSAGE OF THE THIRTEENTH AMENDMENT, WHICH OFFICIALLY ENDED SLAVERY IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

BOTH THE THE UNION AND THE CONFEDERATE ARMIES OF THE CIVIL WAR PROVED TO HAVE TALENTED LEADERS AMONG THEM. THE UNION’S MAIN GENERAL WAS ULYSSES S. GRANT. THE UNION HAD MORE MEN FOR THE ARMY, SINCE THE UNION HAD A BIGGER POPULATION THAN THE CONFEDERACY.
