    The battles that took place in the civil war all had a significant impact on the union and the confederates. Many could justify which battles led up to the civil war‚ but I believe it to be these. The battle of Fort Sumter‚ first Battle of Bull Run‚ and the Battle of Gettysburg were the most important battles that took place in the civil war. The Battle of Fort Sumter was a confederate assault on union soldiers holding a Fort near Charleston Harbor. Commander of the confederate P.G.T Beauregard

    The Civil War in 1861 was the outcome of built up tension due to segregation in the Northern and Southern regions of the United States. From 1789 to 1860‚ the conflict of slavery gained attention of whether or not the act was ethical. Although many argue the Civil War was caused by infringement on the states’ rights‚ it was mainly because of incongruence in the actions of the Legislative‚ Judicial‚ and Executive branches on slavery that led to the Civil War. Legislative Branch The Louisiana Purchase

    The civil war is looked at as a man’s fight and everything they did in it but you rarely hear about women that did just as much as some men if not more. Women contributed to the civil war in ways that may be surprising because it is not acknowledged as much as it should be in history. All women helped fight in the Civil War in some way whether they were a part of the union‚ confederate or even if they were slaves. During the civil war women did a wide variety of things that were very helpful to both

    American soil for the first time. The main cause of the American Civil War is a controversial issue that continues to be the topic of much debate. Nevertheless‚ it is apparent that the Mexican-American War had a great deal to do with it. It is not however‚ the only factor that contributed to the Civil War.

    The civil war was a war that redefined America and reaffirmed that freedom was not limited solely by a person’s race. The results of the war echoed long past the final battle and forever changed what being an American means today. Many of the stories and accounts from this period helped establish the meaning of freedom and the struggles to understand how freedom applied to all people such as The Gettysburg address (Abraham Lincoln) and The narrative of Fredrick douglass. Both pieces discuss American

    The topic of the American Civil War sparked interest in me for being one of the most influential historical time frames of all. I wanted to do a topic where I can constantly learn new things: both minutiae and huge details. On the other hand‚ the topic of the American Civil War was too broad of a NHD project. To condense the topic‚ I researched subcategories by watching documentaries. The documentaries mainly focused on achievements of men and their wartime efforts‚ that constant pattern had me thinking

    The two events in American history that I believe shaped America the most are the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. They both were periods of history in which there was a lot of turmoil‚ and for good reason. They both were bloody wars‚ but they showed how willing American’s were to fight for what they thought was truly right. The Revolutionary War showed how much Americans were willing to fight for their freedom against an oppressive and controlling government. American people were ready

    The Civil War was a brutal‚ extended battle of economies‚ morals‚ and rights. There was blood on the proud flag of stars and stripes‚ and the stain of corruption was not simply washed out by a cleansing ocean of radical hope. By the end of the Civil War‚ the North and South were complete opposites; night and day‚ industrial and agricultural‚ conservative and liberal. Since they were unified‚ they finally had something in common - their futures. During the Reconstruction period‚ the political‚ economic

    examining the Civil War‚ many causes of conflict are often overlooked by the obvious cause of slavery. While slavery was somewhat of a cause of the war‚ it definitely wasn’t a big reason and makes the key reasons of conflict seem very small and dismal. There were many more causes to the Civil War like some that will be mentioned in this essay. The Civil War was not fought solely to end slavery and free the slaves. First‚ slavery was more of a symbol then a reason of conflict in the Civil War. The South
