    During the Civil War, both the Union and Confederacy operated prison camps to hold captured enemy combatants. Some of the major camps included Andersonville in Georgia, Salisbury in North Carolina, Alton in Illinois, and Point Lookout in Maryland. Prisoners lived in crude shelters made from blankets, wood, or poles and faced harsh conditions with little access to food, medicine, or sanitation. While some camps allowed limited privileges like communicating with officers or playing games, prisoner exchange between the sides broke down over time, resulting in overcrowded camps where disease and starvation were rampant.
