North vs. South
Everybody thought the war wouldn't last a long time. Lincoln asked some volunteers to sign up for only a few months.
The South was fighting for what they believed. The South thought England would help them because they used a lot of the South’s cotton. Many Confederate’s left the army because they didn't have the supplies they needed to fight. The Union had more soldiers, more factories, and more weapons and supplies. The Union military leaders were weaker than the Confederate leaders, but later became as good with training.
