Both the North and South had advantages for winning the Civil War. The North has significant advantages -- a greater population, the industrial base, the factories to make these war materials.

The South had a greater army and more experienced generals during the first year of the war. The South also had some geographic advantages over the North.

The North, however, won the four years of conflict.

Answer 2

You didn't provide options, but one advantage the South had over the North was in experienced military leadership.

As pointed out by Daniel White in an article on Owlcation about advantages the South did have, one key was military leadership. White writes: "Many Southern political and military leaders were graduates of the military academy at West Point, as well as veterans of wars such as the Mexican-American War ... while the Union struggled for the first few years of the war to find strong leaders ."
