Answer:

C - Southern Bread Riots.

Step-by-step explanation:

The riots were triggered by the women's lack of money, provisions, and food. Refugees had flooded the cities causing severe shortages of housing and overwhelming the old food supply system. Richmond's population tripled from 38,000 people in 1860 to over 100,000 by 1863.

Hope this helped!
