Do You Want To Win The Civil War

The Civil War that occurred was one of the darkest times in our history as a country. It was a time where there was a complete breakdown of social and political systems. Hundreds of thousands were killed and hundreds of thousands more were aversely affected. However, it was also a time of remembrance and significant moral progress. It is remembered as the turning point in American History and would be the foundation for the Civil Rights movement many years later.

Over the course of several years there were thousands of battles fought in the American Civil war. Many of these battles were fought at the same time throughout the country. Two of these battles in particular ended at the same time, The fall of Vicksburg and the Battle of Gettysburg. The Union won both of these Battles, giving them an advantage over the south. These 2 defeats gave the union the upper hand because the south retreated and that was the last time they attacked the north. They retreated from gettysburg to vicksburg.

The Civil War lasted from 1861-1865. During this time period, the war was evenly fought between the South (Confederates) and the North (Union). The Confederate side allowed slavery and wanted the United States to go pro-slavery, while the North contained free states and was anti-slavery. The Civil War was a tough fight for both sides, resulting in heavy losses for the Confederates, as well as the Union. The South lost the War in 1861-1865 over the North due to their lack of industrialization, population and their loss of Britain and France’s support.

The Civil War, which began in April 1861,was the battle of the Northern and Southern states of America. After Lincoln pledged to get rid of slavery in new territories, Southern states seceded to form the Confederacy to fight against the Union. Both the Union and Confederacy and strengths and weaknesses, however, ultimately the North was victorious and slavery was abolished from the United States. The North had many strengths, including a strong military and a strong economical/political system, which would help them win the war. James McPherson backs this up as he argues that the North had superior numbers which would help them during the war.

The American Civil War was fought from 1861 to 1865 to determine whether the Union or Confederacy would survive. The fight would take place between the North, called Union states and the South, called Confederate states. The Confederate states wanted to leave the North and South union and stand on their own.

The civil war began on April 12th, 1861, and ended on May 9th, 1865. It had lasted about four years. The war was between the North and South. Northern states fought to abolish slavery and southern fought for slavery and states rights. At the time our president was Abraham Lincoln. All battles were bloody and worth a fight. The result of the war reunited us together as one.

Since the final battle of the American Civil War was fought in 1865, scholars have debated the reasons for the Union’s victory over the Confederacy. Historians have attributed the war’s outcome to many factors, some of which include Lincoln’s superior leadership, the South’s failure to diplomatically secure foreign intervention, emancipated slaves enlisting in the Union army, and the military strategies employed by the North’s generals. Both the Union and Confederacy expected a quick victory, each believing it possessed several advantages over the other. In the end, however, the North’s overwhelming

The Civil War started on April 12th, 1861. A fight was between the North and the South. Southern states were livid at the fact that Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1860. The newly elected president was an abolitionist during his time. The southern states felt like the presence of President Lincoln disconnected them from the Union.These southern states include North Carolina, South Carolina, Mississippi, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Virginia. All of these states separated from the Union and created their own. The Confederacy. On April 12,1861 the Confederate side began the civil war at Fort Sumter.

The Civil War was a very gruesome battle in which 620,000 soldiers had lost their lives. The battle was a very important time in history where two countries located in the same country (The USA and The CSA were located in America) were fighting for the same thing. Freedom. The US wanted to keep their citizens free, no matter what color they were, and The CS wanted freedom from The US so they could start their own country filled with slaves. In the end, The US claimed victory over The CS, gained all of the southern states, and abolished slavery. America became a whole country once again. But imagine this; what if The CS had actually won the war? Also, would this new country survive for long? To put out one simple answer, No. They would not

Discrimination and acceptance is apparent before, as it is in the present. Before, African Americans were given “freedom” that wasn’t entirely free. Today, African Americans are fully free, however, they still receive some discrimination and unfair judgment. After the Civil War, African Americans finally received their so-called, “freedom,” and a time of rebuilding and readmitting began. Both the whites and the African Americans had to adapt to these new changes. African Americans were able to receive food, jobs, education, and much more, yet not as fantastic as they hoped. Southerners wanted segregation, and applied a tiny amount of freedom rights for African Americans. The Southern Whites won the Second Civil War (Reconstruction), as they are still perceived to be above the African Americans, and extremely worked to keep no

Every time there is a war, there is a fundamental question whether it was possible to avoid it or not; so it is about the US Civil War, which has been regarded as one of the most influential and significant events in the history of the United States. On December 20th, 1860, South Carolina declared its intent to secede from the Union. Its secession was followed by the secession of six additional states from the Deep South. By February 1861, the seven states from the South had drafted a provisional constitution and started being the Confederate States of America. There were too many differences between the two factions for peaceful reconciliation. The United States was essentially two separate nations: North and South, which had to co-exist as one.

There were many types of weapons used in the Civil War, ranging from cannons to guns to swords to hand grenades, but both sides used mostly old style smooth-bore muskets or rifled muskets. These were both relatively simple long guns that were not particularly easy to reload during battle and quite cumbersome

The South was viewed by many in the United States and elsewhere as a robust, self-sufficient economy (Surdam, 2001, p. 1). It produced much of the world's supply of cotton and Texans bragged that their cattle could feed the world. What the South lacked in manufacturing was compensated for by the immense wealth produced from raw cotton, cattle, and corn exports. Obviously, the predictions that the South could survive a war with the North due to its economic self-sufficiency were wrong. This essay analyzes the possible reasons for the failure of the Confederacy to win the Civil War.
