Were the union and the confederate states prepared for the war?
No state is ever really prepared for war, as war is usually the last resort after diplomacy fails. But the South was really not prepared, as the Union had in place a regular army, and when the south broke away from the Union, the south had no regular army. Even when the combat started, both sides thought it would be a short, glorious war with little bloodshed. It took some time before anyone thought it would be a long war. Two notable exceptions, both on the Union side, were the elderly General-in-Chief Winfield Scott and the then-unknown Colonel William T. Sherman.
