Life in the South Warm. and sunny with long summers
The South reached 12 million, one third of whom were slaves
The southern economy was based on agriculture
Most Southerners lived on farms, scattered along the coastal plains and the small farmers in the backcountry
There were few schools or churches in the South, since neither education nor religion were very organized
Methods of long-distance transports, such as steamships and railroads, affected the South because products could more easily be sold to more distant markets.

Life in the North
The North has a climate of warm summers and snowy cold winters. The terrain is rocky, hilly, and not good for farming.
In the 1800-1860 the North the overall population rose from about 5 million to 31 million during this time.
The Northern economy was based on many different industries. These industries included shipping, textiles, lumber, furs, and mining.
Cities in the North thrived as centers of commerce. They were set up along the Atlantic coast and served as centers of trade between the North and Europe.
Public services such as education began to take root. Cities were important centers of art, culture, and education.
During the first half of the 1800’s transportation vastly improved and the size of the United States more than doubled. By 1860 there were over 88,000 miles of surfaced roads.
