Those two years were critical. In that time the Soviets poured mountains of arms and supplies to the North while in that time the liberals in Congress would not even let the South have spare parts to keep their equipment in working order. The bottom like is the North was a vassal of the Soviets, the South was a vassal of the US. The Soviets stood by their vassal while the US abandoned theirs.
