Here are some possible discussion points for whatever option you chose.

1) Political- The Civil War caused a huge divide in the American political structure. The Confederate States that left the US created their own form of government, with their own rules, and ignored the Union requests (like in the Emancipation Proclamation).

2) Economic- There was millions of dollars in damage to both sides during this war. This was especially true for the South, as the Union destroyed a huge amount of railroads and plantations during Sherman's March to the Sea.

3) Social- This war caused a bitter divide among American citizens. Families in different states were forced to fight against each other during the Civil War, forever changing the relationship between Northern and Southern states.

I think that number one cost of conflict was economic. Just to think that 617,528 people died is not a good thought. Both the Union and the Confederate had to spend a lot of money. The Confederate states spent a lot of money on property damage and the Union lost a lot of human capital. Both the Confederacy and the Union also spent a lot of money on government expenditures. Also if you think about it both the north and south had to pay a lot of money for their troops. Combined they had a total of 2,638,797 soldiers. Imagine how much money you’ll need to pay all these soldiers. This is why I think that the number one cost of the war was economically.

By far the Union’s cost was much higher than the Confederacy’s cost. First of all the Union had more troops so they would have to pay more also they lost more troops. Second, the lost the most human capital and had more government expenses. Third, all the slaves were freed, although this is a good thing but all the rich people that used them to sell their products had lost all of their employees. Fourth, their were many states that did not vote because they seceded. Also everyone disagreed about the future because if everyone thought that only 1 candidate was right then the election would not be as close as it was. In conclusion the Union had a much larger cost because of the war.
