The Republican party nominates Abraham Lincoln for president in the 1860 election. Democrats could not agree on a unified platform regarding slavery and split their nomination between Northern Democrat Stephen Douglas and Southern Democrat John Breckinridge. Lincoln wins the election due to support in the North. In response, Southern states begin seceding from the Union, forming the Confederate States of America led by Jefferson Davis. Tensions rise as the North believes secession is unconstitutional while the South asserts their right to leave.

The document summarizes the key events and issues leading to the American Civil War from 1848 to 1861. It discusses the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act which destroyed earlier compromises over slavery and led to the formation of the Republican party. Rising tensions escalated over the Dred Scott decision and John Brown's raid, culminating in Abraham Lincoln's election in 1860 which caused seven Southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America. His election was the final trigger for the Civil War despite last-ditch compromise efforts.
The civil war & reconstruction
The document provides background information on the events leading up to and during the American Civil War. It discusses the issues of slavery and states' rights that divided the North and South. Key events included the Dred Scott decision, the Lincoln-Douglas debates, John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry, and the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 which prompted several Southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America under President Jefferson Davis. The first shots of the Civil War were fired at Fort Sumter in South Carolina in April 1861 after the Union refused to abandon the fort.
7.2 reconstruction and its effects 1865 1877
The Reconstruction Act of 1867 divided the Southern states into military districts headed by Union generals. It required the states to grant voting rights to African American men and ratify the 14th Amendment in order to be readmitted to the Union. Johnson vetoed the act but Congress overrode his veto. This set up a conflict between Johnson and the Radical Republicans that led to his impeachment for violating the Tenure of Office Act, though he was acquitted by one vote in the Senate trial. The election of 1868 was won by Ulysses S. Grant, signaling Republican control over Reconstruction.
The Civil War
The document summarizes key events of the 1860 US presidential election and early Civil War period:

Road to civil war pp
The document discusses the growing sectionalism between the North and South in the United States leading up to the Civil War. Key events that exacerbated tensions included the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, and the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, which prompted several Southern states to secede and form the Confederate States of America. The document aims to explain the political, economic, and social divisions between free and slave states that ultimately led the nation to civil war.

The End Of Reconstruction
Ulysses S. Grant was elected as a Republican president in 1868, despite attacks from the KKK over 500,000 African Americans were able to vote in the South due to the 15th Amendment. However, women still did not have the right to vote. Grant did not choose his advisors well, appointing unqualified friends and family to positions. This led to scandals and splits in the Republican party. An economic depression started in 1873 after some banks collapsed, lasting 5 years. In the close 1876 election, Rutherford B. Hayes was eventually declared president over Democrat Samuel Tilden after a compromise that removed federal troops from the South. This collapse of Reconstruction government allowed Democrats to regain control of the South.
Reconstruction In Daily Life
After the Civil War, many freed slaves left plantations in search of economic opportunities and family members. They could now legally marry and strengthen family ties. Freedmen flocked to schools, funded by northern charities, to learn to read and write. Without property of their own, many ex-slaves returned to plantations under a contract system where they were paid wages, though some were cheated. This led many to turn to sharecropping, renting and farming land from owners who provided tools and housing in exchange for a share of crops, though debt often kept sharecroppers in poverty. Freed slaves faced racism and violence from groups like the Ku Klux Klan, who attacked and killed African Americans to maintain
Rebuilding The South
Reconstruction was the period after the Civil War where the United States sought to readmit the Confederate states to the Union from 1865 to 1877. The Freedman's Bureau was established to assist freed slaves by providing schools, hospitals, food and clothing. Andrew Johnson became president after Lincoln's assassination and sought to continue Lincoln's reconstruction plans with a strong presidential role. However, Radical Republicans in Congress pushed for full citizenship and equal rights for African Americans, passing laws like the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the 14th Amendment. Increased tensions led to Johnson's impeachment in 1868 for opposing Congressional reconstruction policies, though he was acquitted by one vote.
War Erupts
The Civil War began on April 12, 1861 when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina. In response, President Lincoln called for troops from the Northern states to put down the Southern uprising. Another key early event was Virginia deciding to join the Confederacy, giving the South an important state both economically and militarily. The Union had significant advantages over the Confederacy in population, manufacturing, railroads, and other industrial resources. However, the Confederacy had skilled generals and the motivation to fight defensively to protect their homes. The first major battle of the war, at Bull Run near Washington D.C., was a surprising Confederate victory that showed the war may not be as short as the Union expected.
Legacy Of The War
The Civil War was the deadliest war in American history, resulting in over 620,000 deaths. It cost billions to fight and economically devastated the South. As a result of the war, millions of slaves were freed and the 13th Amendment officially abolished slavery nationwide. Lincoln's assassination shortly after the war ended shocked the nation as he sought to reunite it after the intense conflict.
North Wins
The Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863 resulted in a Union victory, with the North having 23,000 casualties and the Confederacy 28,000. The next day, General Grant led the Union to victory at Vicksburg, giving the Union control of the Mississippi River. Later, General Sherman marched his army through Georgia in an attempt to break the South's will, destroying a wide swath of land along the way. Finally, in April 1865 General Grant defeated General Lee in Virginia, accepting his surrender at Appomattox Court House and effectively ending the Civil War.
No End In Sight
The document summarizes several major battles and events of the American Civil War in 1862. Ulysses S. Grant emerged as an effective Union general in the Western Theater, winning victories at Fort Henry and Shiloh. In the Eastern Theater, the Seven Days Battles resulted in a Confederate victory near Richmond, though the Union captured New Orleans and gained control of the Mississippi River. The bloodiest single-day battle of the war, Antietam, resulted in a Union victory but allowed Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia to escape.
Life Of The Soldiers
The document summarizes life for soldiers in the Union and Confederate armies during the American Civil War. Most soldiers were farmers between 18 and 30 years old, though African Americans were initially not allowed to fight for the Union. Over 2 million men served in the Union army and 1 million in the Confederate army. Soldiers lived in tents, trained daily, and often faced poor conditions with inadequate supplies that contributed to the spread of disease. Major technological developments included rifles, minié balls, and ironclad warships like the CSS Virginia and USS Monitor, which fought to a standstill in their famous battle.
War And Society
The document summarizes key events and developments related to the American Civil War and its impact on society. It discusses Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation that freed slaves in Confederate states, the formation of black Union regiments like the 54th Massachusetts, and the declining size of the Confederate army by 1863. It also mentions economic hardships like inflation in the South, the establishment of income tax and greenbacks to fund the war effort, and the roles of women and nurses like Clara Barton.
Growing
1) Tensions grew between the industrial North and agricultural South, with the North relying on industry and commerce while the South relied on slave labor for cotton plantations.
2) The Wilmot Proviso, which would have banned slavery in new territories, passed the House but not the Senate, leading to the formation of the Free Soil Party.
3) The Compromise of 1850 was proposed to address the imbalance of free and slave states, allowing California to join as a free state while strengthening fugitive slave laws. It provided a temporary solution but did not end the debate around slavery's expansion.
War Erupts
The Civil War began on April 12, 1861 when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina. In response, President Lincoln called for troops from the Union states to put down the Southern uprising. A key early event was Virginia deciding to join the Confederacy, giving the South an important state in terms of wealth, population, and military leaders like Robert E. Lee. The Union had significant advantages over the Confederacy in population, manufacturing, railroads, and other industrial resources. The Union aimed to defeat the South by destroying its economy through a blockade of Southern ports. However, the Confederacy had advantages as well, including skilled generals and fighting to defend their homes.
Slavery And Politics
The document summarizes key events in American politics related to slavery in the 1850s. It discusses the formation of the Republican party which opposed the expansion of slavery, John Fremont being their first presidential nominee. It also discusses James Buchanan winning the 1856 election as a Democrat by promising to maintain the Union. The Dred Scott case ruled that slaves were not citizens, outraging Northerners. Lincoln and Douglas held famous debates in 1858. John Brown's failed attack on Harper's Ferry further inflamed tensions over slavery leading up to the Civil War.
Crisis Deepens Notes
The document summarizes key events that deepened the crisis of slavery in the 1850s, including the publication of Uncle Tom's Cabin which brought awareness to the issue; the Fugitive Slave Act which required runaway slaves to be returned; and the Kansas-Nebraska Act which allowed territories to decide whether to be slave states, fueling violent conflicts in "Bleeding Kansas" between pro and anti-slavery factions.
