Answer 2

Britain and France depended on the south for four-fifths of their cotton for their textile industries

Step-by-step explanation:

During the American civil war the Great Britain remained neutral during the American civil war due to the fact that they never recognized the confederates states of America which were made up of the southern sates as a country and did not exchange ambassadors with them nor was a treaty signed between them.
