For this week’s discussion… Consider how life in the United States would be different today if the Civil War had not ended with the Union and Confederacy coming together. What would life look like if you lived in the North? What would life look like if you lived in the South? Consider the impact of the Civil War on life in America today by considering what an alternative end to the war would have done to the American way of life? What if the Union was not reformed and the Confederate States remained as its own country? What would life be like in the North? What would life be like in the South? Be sure to consider the perspectives of multiple cultures as well as the impact on at least two specific industries.
