Answer 2

The North had its share of problems during the U.S Civil War. Late in the war, when victories are few and casualties are high, the Union employed conscription to alleviate manpower shortages. Of course, conscription did not proceed well and it did not sit well with the general public. There is so much evasion and resistance to the draft, leading to violent draft riots in New York.
