Is it not true that New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania bore the brunt of the war in terms of union causalities. All the union states sacrificed but based on where the bulk of population was those three states would make the largest sacrifice.
Or is the dispersal pattern more diffused.
The conflict created two countries of pain, one north one south. Trauma and pain that would last long after the guns fell silent.
For this question I focus on the north this time, where was that kingdom of sorrow, pain. Did it take longer for the invisible wounds to heal or to pay off the bonds issued to fund the war?
