Coming Of The Civil War

The Civil War was provoked for several reasons which included industry, slavery, and territorial disputes among the Northern states and Southern states of the newly established United States. The first recorded engagement of war between the North and South is documented to have taken place on April 12th, 1861 at The Battle of Fort Sumter. This was the starting point of a war that would claim over 600,000 American lives in a relatively short span of 4 years.

Before the Civil War started, the North and the South argued on two main topics: slavery and state rights. In my opinion, it was because of slavery that state rights were argued. When Western territories were annexed from Mexico, they were admitted to the Union with the condition that that slavery be banned through the Wilmot Proviso (History.com). Because of this, slave states felt they were unfairly treated and outnumbered. The religious fervor of the Second Great Awakening also gave way to new ideology. Combined with the growing abolitionist sentiment, Northern states began taking action against Southern states. Because their rights as

The Civil War started because of uncompromising differences between the free and slave states, and they wanted to prohibit slavery in the territories that haven’t became states yet. President Abraham Lincoln won the election in 1860 and at the time he was pledging to keep slavery out of the territories, seven states in the South created a new nation which was called the Confederate army. Most of the North which was the Union army didn’t agree with the South, so that’s when

The American Civil War began in 1861 and lasted until 1865. It was fought for a number of reasons and was a battle between the Union and the Confederate armies. The Civil War was an irrepressible event that occurred due to a series of occasions that pushed the North and the South away from each other such as the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the growth of the Abolitionist movement, the election of president Abraham Lincoln and The Dred Scott v. Sandford case.

The Civil War was one of the darkest times in American History that lasted from 1861 to 1865. It was a war fought primarily over the contrasting beliefs between the southern states who were pro-slavery and the northern states who were anti-slavery. After the election in 1860 of Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president of the United States, the southern states seceded and formed the Confederate States of America. To this day, it is still unclear whether the southern states had any legal basis for seceding but the fact of the matter is the federal government did not have any power to prevent them at the time. The conflict during the Civil War was whether slavery was morally acceptable but the main reason for the war was states’ rights to own

Introduction:The Civil War started from 1861 to 1865 and it was fought for the long-standing controversy about slavery in the United States. The war concluded with Abraham Lincoln’s victory and the abolish of slaves. It is said that the Confederate states started the war by attacking the union soldiers at Fort Sumter in South Carolina.

Lasting four years from April 12, 1861, to April 9, 1865, under the presidency of newly elected President Lincoln, the American Civil War is one of many wars amongst the history of internal conflicts this World has known. Though it may not be the bloodiest, nor the longest or the shortest, all wars are important, and the American Civil War is by far a crucial part of our American history. The war between the Union and the Confederacy is most commonly known that it started out with a disagreement on slavery. The North or Union abolished slavery in its states and the South or Confederacy supported slavery for its economy in the cotton industry.

The Civil War began in April of 1861 and came to an end in 1865. It was a U.S war fought between the Northern and Southern States. Although there were various controversial differences, there wasn’t only one reason that pushed the outbreak of war. What caused the Civil War? The United States was divided by geographical lines, modernization, and slavery.

The Truth: The Civil War began due to differences in beliefs on slavery. The free states and slave states did not agree when it came to the national government's power to prohibit slavery in the territories that were not yet considered states. When Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1860 pledging to end slavery in southern territories, seven slave states seceded from the Union to form The Confederate States of America. Lincoln and most of his fellow northerners feared for the future of democracy and their country when this happened and did not acknowledge the secession as a legitimate political move. The war officially started when the Confederate army claimed Fort Sumter as their own in April of 1861 by opening fire and forcing the federal troops to lower the American flag and surrender.

Have you ever had a fight with a family member that turned into a war? Well that’s exactly what happened in the Civil War: The US was split into two brother political parties, the Union and the Confederacy. Both parties had opposing views on a lot of things and those opposing views led to the Civil War. The Civil War lasted from 1861-1865.

Slavery, it is so stupid to know that it actually existed, in America or in any parts of the world. Slavery is one of the most awful part of American History, an act of racial discrimination. Why is it racist? Well, it is simply because only dark skinned people were considered slaves. We all know it happened, but when and how did it ended? It ended after the civil war, when people started fighting that people in all race are equal and slavery is very inhuman. People started rebelling and passing bills to end it, and that is when the Civil war started.

The Civil War was fought between the union and confederate states over the ongoing issue of slavery. When the war first began in 1861, president Lincoln issued a proclamation for 75,000 volunteer soldiers to help quell the southern insurrection. The war lasted four years and ended when the confederate states and their leader Robert E. Lee surrender to

The Civil War officially began on April 12, 1861, when the Confederate army attacked the Union at Fort Sumter, North Carolina but the conflict started long before. The general consensus among historians is that slavery was the main cause of the war , but what actually lead to the start of a domestic dispute of this caliber was a much more complex matter that truly preceded the addition of the phrase “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…” to the Declaration of Independence in 1776 . Nevertheless, to be precise, it began with the changing economy of the states. In the North, the focus was
