first of all you are wrong, the life in the south was harder by transportation than the north was. In the 1800s in the south there was over 10,000 miles of railroad track's north had a better transportation way in everything, more railroads, roads, and canal's, the north was filled exceptionally with canal's. The south only had a few good and easy ways of transportation.
The Niger River uses three-fourths of its total length for commercial shipping. Common modes of transportation are barges and fishing boats.
By walking , horse and carriage and by river boat. Later in the century, railroads were built.
