Question

what was a major difference between the north and south during the mid-1800s?

Answer 1

The North was anti-slavery and had an economy based on manufacturing, factories, ship-building, and transportation.

The South was in favor of slavery and had an economy based on agriculture.

The South wanted low tariffs on imported goods, because it allowed them to sell cotton to Europe. The North wanted high tariffs on imported goods, because it protected their factories from foreign competition.
