Data Concerning the 'Old South'
[ send me this paper ]
(9 pp) When we think of the Civil War, we tend to simply divide the country into the North and the South. However, when Lincoln was inaugurated in March of 1861, seven states made up the 'Lower South:' South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas--had seceded from the Union. But the four states of the 'Upper South'--Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas--had not yet joined the original seven. Missouri, Kentucky, and Maryland were considered border-states. In this discussion we will be considering the problems of urbanization, economic development, and levels of nationalism in these Southern states. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
