Which side appeared to be stronger at the beginning of the civil war?

the north because of its well-established government

the south because of its many miles of railroad tracks

the south because of its agriculture and food supply

the north because it could trade textiles for firearms

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The side which appeared to be stronger at the beginning of the Civil War would be the  North because of its well-established government.  The North also had a stable central government as compared to the south.
