The South had a population of approximately 9 million people compared to the North’s population of approximately 22 million people. Based on this, which strategy made the most sense for the South? A. fight an offensive war and try to force an early end to fighting
B. fight an offensive war and take control of Northern factories
C. fight a defensive war and wait for the North to tire of fighting
D. fight a defensive war and use European soldiers for additional support

D.

Explanation:

I think it's D because they know they have a smaller army and getting help from the Europeans could enlarge it but still not enough to attack first.

every society, in order to meet the needs of it's people, has to answer three basic questions:

- what should we produce?

- how should we produce it?

- for whom should we produce it?

this questions must be answered in order to, option b, aid in production decisions.

every country can't produce everything, no matter how rich their land is. it may be a matter of technology, resources or geographical conditions. so, these three questions must be resolved in order to get the most of the production of each land.

hope this !
