The U.S. Civil War

Abraham Lincoln Elected President of the U.S. in 1860 First Republican to be elected President 16th President of the US Deepened sectionalism “Government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free…”

Jefferson Davis President of the Confederate States of America

North versus South The Confederate states of America included 11 states The south had a population of 9 million people. This included 4 million slaves The Union was comprised of 24 states The population was 20 million people

Confederate General Robert E. Lee Was offered the command of Union forces but returned to his homestate of Virginia Surrendered to Grant at Appomattox

Union General Ulysses S. Grant Given command after a series of victories, including Vicksburg Hi plan was to concentrate on Sherman’s march through Georgia and his own assault in Virginia

Fort Sumter April 12, 1861 Charleston, South Carolina Confederates open fire on the fort, beginning the Civil War

Antietam 1862 First major battle in the North (Maryland) Bloodiest single one day battle- 23,000 casualties McClellan fails to destroy Lee’s army Lincoln issues the Emancipation Proclamation after Antietam The draft began to meet the demand for soldiers

Emancipation Proclamation Jan 1, 1863 – issued by President Lincoln freeing all slaves in Confederate states and emphasizes the enlisting of black soldiers in the Union Army. The war to preserve the Union now becomes a revolutionary struggle for the abolition of slavery.

Gettysburg July 1-3 1863 92,000 Union troops/76,000 Confederate troops Pennsylvania Turns the tide of war with the union victory The greatest single battle of the Civil War

Aftermath at Gettysburg

Vicksburg July 4, 1863 (May-July) Confederates surrender to General Grant This split the Confederacy in two. This victory gave the Union control of the Mississippi River.

Lee’s Surrender April 9, 1865 Small Virginia town of Appomattox Court House Grant gave generous terms of surrender Confederates could return home Were allowed to take private possessions and horses Food was given to the hungry
