How did the Civil War affect the home front? What was the connection between the home front and battlefront for both North and South? How did the strategy of total war affect the outcome and legacy of the war

A

Explanation:

Civil War changed the lives of the soldiers involved. However, civilians on both sides were also caught up in and forever changed by the war. Women had to feed and care for families while taking over the duties that their husbands had before the war. People on the home front had to deal with inflation, lack of supplies, sicknesses and long times with no news of their loved ones. Many lived in areas where the armies fought or marched through.

The North

The North started the Civil War with big advantages over the South, especially in terms of manufacturing power, food supplies, and number of people. Rail networks of more than 22,000 miles carried shipments of food and equipment from farms to cities. Twenty million people, more than a fifth of them recent immigrants, provided a large pool of soldiers and of workers for farms and factories. In 1860, the North had nine of the ten largest cities. (In the South, only New Orleans, Louisiana, made the list.) New York City had reached a population of one million. Industry in the northern cities consisted of manufacturing, cloth milling, shipping, and businesses, such as stores, financial firms, and professions such as doctor and lawyer.
