The South lay in ruins at the end of the war. Most of the fighting had been done on Southern soil. Little of the Antebellum infrastructure remained. Much had been destroyed in the fighting. Richmond, Vicksburg, and Atlanta had been destroyed as thoroughly by cannon fire and actual fire. The photographs resemble cities that are bombed from the air today. The economy had collapsed. The paper money was so worthless that it was used as tinder to start fires instead of legal tender. Many localities faced starvation because crops had been destroyed and farmland churned up by artillery shelling, and entrenchment by local troops. The South did not just surrender. It suffered catastrophic defeat. The entire southern society collapsed.
