The Civil WarThe Civil War
The American Civil War lasted from 1861 to 1865 and was a devastating conflict between the Northern states (the Union) and the Southern states (the Confederacy) that seceded from the Union. The primary cause of the war was the longstanding controversy over slavery. The war began on April 12, 1861, when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina. Key battles included the Battle of Gettysburg, the Battle of Antietam, and the Siege of Vicksburg.
The war resulted in the abolition of slavery with the passage of the 13th Amendment and marked a significant turning point in American history. President Abraham Lincoln’s leadership and his Gettysburg Address became emblematic of the nation's resolve. By the war’s end, over 600,000 soldiers had died, and the Southern states lay in ruins, but the Union was preserved.
