Which accurately describes the south's strengths at the beginning of the civil war? ?

I believe the correct answer is - The South had numerous experienced military officers to lead its army.
The other options are incorrect because:
- not all food crops came from the South; a lot of them came from the North
- the North had a far superior government
- the North had better roads than the South
This leaves us with military officers, who were indeed an asset the South had during the Civil War.
