Answer 1

Among the given statements the one which is not the advantages of the North had at the beginning of the Civil War is that they had 7 of the 8 top Generals in the country.​

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

During the civil war the armies of both South and North participated in the war on three fronts. Both the North and South had their own advantages and disadvantages. The North was under the leadership of Abraham Lincoln and they had more money, more factories, more railroads and a larger standing army.

The disadvantage that the North had from its side was they didn’t have experienced Generals to lead the war. They did not have proper communication, they were placed in an unknown territory and there was no one to boost them up.
