As I have learned from the reading, I can say that the North has actually won the Civil War. I think this because during the Civil War north side was more powerful and stable. It was industrialized and it produces more than 90 percent of United States pig iron ("Ch. 16 Introduction - U.S. History | OpenStax", n.d.). Even it was richer as the more agricultural area was developed in that area ("Ch. 16 Introduction - U.S. History | OpenStax", n.d.). So, due to the availability of power and money, I can say that the Northside has won Civil War.
