Civil+War+mbm

= Civil War = The civil war can be summed up by many things. Like for example, the issue with slavery and how big of a conflict it was between the northern and southern states. The northern half was against slavery and thought of it to be morally wrong, so they elected Abraham Lincoln to help their case because he as well was very against slavery and also wanted to prevent spread into the westward territories. While Lincoln was in office, there was a group called radical republicans that opposed Lincoln's beliefs. The southern half was totally for slavery. The northern and southern half both had their advantages. Like for the northern, they had 90% of all factories and double the miles of railroad tracks making it easier for them to move, and supply their troops. Winfield Scott made up the Anaconda Plan to separate the south and cut off resources to all its armies. In the north, the Battle of Antietam was a crucial victory for them. It helped stop the British from mediating the war and being an ally to the south. The civil war happened between the northern and southern territories all because of the slavery issue. If the northern half didn't win the war who knows if there would still be slavery to this day?
