Answer:
The Union's industrial and economic capacity
soared during the war as the North continued
its rapid industrialization to suppress the
rebellion.
Step-by-step explanation:
A main difference between the Old South
and the New South was the dramatic
expansion of southern industry after the Civil
War. In the years after Reconstruction, the
southern industry had become a more
important part of the region's economy than
ever before. Most visible was the growth in
textile manufacturing.
