Describe the hardship the southern civilian population faced during the war.

During the Civil War, where the South separated from the Union and became the Confederate States after Abraham Lincoln became the United States President, and slavery was threatened, the Southern population faced many difficulties the main ones being:

Social and political organization issues: because the Confederate states didn't had time to organize and create laws to establish order in social and economic matters, taxes and inflation became a problem during the war.

War supplies: the South was an agricultural society, which economy depended on cotton, tobacco and rice, unlike the North that was an industrial society and produced their own arms and weapons, due to the lack of industrialization, the South had trouble finding supplies to resist the war, although they had a stronger militia.

Location and population: the war was mainly fought in Southern lands, which was a disadvantage to the Southern population because their families and properties were attacked, another hardship was also that the Northern population was bigger than the Southern population.
