I want to know the answer to the following question:
What characteristic of American cotton attracted buyers after the end of the Civil war?
All the background I'm provided with is that "During the American Civil War, American cotton exports slumped due to a Union blockade on Southern ports, and also because of a strategic decision by the Confederate government to cut exports, hoping to force Britain to recognize the Confederacy or enter the war.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
