The south did have a chance...

I believe that the south had a very good chance of winning. Their generals were smarter, and that could have gotten them the victory. How the north won, everyone will probably give Abraham Lincoln all of the credit, however, the south had a good chance also. Even with the population,supplies, and support disadvantage, they managed to keep up with the north for a while which proves their strength. The civil war was not a mistake for slavery was a big part of the issue. As for keeping te union together, I think the xonfederacyvwould have come back in the future due to their economy and France and Britain finding other cotton resources. I'm sorry this is late mister harp! I'm currently in Reno for a volleyball tournament and I never had the chance to do my homework...
