Answer:

in Factories

Step-by-step explanation:

Unlike the South, which had a more agricultural economy, the northern states were more industrialized. The Industrial revolution came to the United States right before the civil war and it would cause the country to be a leading industrial power by 1900. At first, though, that industrial progress was concentrated in the north.
