Capital of Wisconsin is Madison, and its largest city is Milwaukee. Christianity is the leading religion of Wisconsin. Throughout the period of the Civil War, Wisconsin was a Republican and pro-Union stronghold. Ethno-religious concerns in the late 19th century caused a brief split in the Republican coalition. The economy of Wisconsin is motivated by manufacturing, agriculture, and health care. Although manufacturing accounts for a far-off greater part of the state's income than farming, Wisconsin is often perceived as a farming state.
