What are many differences and similarities between Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis?

Answer 1

Some of the ways they are alike is that they both got married, they were both president of a country, they were both born in Kentucky and they were both presisents during the Civil War. I only know two ways that they are different. Davis was for the Confederacy, and Lincoln was for the Union. Also, another is that Davis had a better education. I'm sorry I don't know more... can someone else help? Add on to what I have already written?

Differences: Jefferson Davis, although voted in by the people of the Confederacy, did not gain as much popularity as Lincoln did. He suffered acutely from neurological problems and other nervous disorders such as a tic. He constantly overworked himself with the details of both civil government and military operations. He was undoubtedly, however, courageous, sincere, had great integrity and a strong devotion to the South. Lincoln, on the other hand, only grew more popular as the war slowly progressed. He was in charge of a long-established government and a financially stable environment. He was inexperienced as a politician but he proved superior to the well-informed Davis. He was tactful, quiet, patient, and he developed a genius for interpreting and leading a fickle public opinion
