Southern Bumper Crop (1 Jan 1860 Jahr – 1 Jan 1861 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

There is a surplus of cotton in the 1860 crop, making prices go down.
North already has enough cotton stores to make uniforms during the war
Britain (souths number one customer) can get cotton from Egypt and India

Ends the Cotton Diplomacy

The south thinks that people depend on them for cotton and will support them during the war, but Britain opposes slavery and has other cotton providers
