    The path to the Civil War was a long one. There were various points in American history that lead to the war; such as the Missouri Compromise; the Kansas-Nebraska Act; the political idea of nullification; the political idea of secession; John Brown; the election of Abraham Lincoln; secession; and slavery. Before the Missouri compromise states were evenly divided between slave states and Free states.

    For the majority of American History leading up to the Civil War, civilians had been divided over the issue of slavery and politics. The nation had a long history of compromise that seemed necessary to keep the nation unified. Most of these compromises avoided the issue of slavery, as politicians and “great compromisers” like Henry Clay aimed to prevent the inevitable split between the North and South. There was a turning point, however, in the North and South, when compromise was no longer an option. Although the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 was the immediate and final trigger for southern secession, other attributes including the Kansas-Nebraska Act, Bleeding Kansas, and the Dred Scott decision of 1857 drove the South further towards…

    The Civil War was one of the most memorable and historical wars in America. The conflicting beliefs of the north and south lead to a war that consisted of at least 616,000 casualties. Originally, the war began in hopes to prevent the states of the south from leaving the Union of the U.S. States of the south seceded because of a difference of ideas regarding slavery. Some people believe that slavery was the primary cause of the Civil War, though slavery did play a major role in the upbringing of the civil war I do not believe that it was the dominant cause of the war. The first reason that I believe that the statement that the Civil War’s primary cause was slavery is incorrect is that the war began, to prevent disunion in the U.S but, slavery was only a factor that would cause disunion or secession of the south.…

    The war at home became controversial because of the huge dive of supporters of the war and non-supporters of the war. The people opposed to the war tended to be middle class working people along with the working class women, and African Americans with grade school education and low paying jobs.

One of the strongest arguments that the antiwar supporters had was that the war was causing more damage than living under communist rule did.…

    While General Kelly, President Trump’s current Chief of Staff, believes that the American Civil War began because of an inability to compromise, I think that compromising on the issue of slavery was simply not an option. Unity was key for America to pursue not only its moral aspirations, but for it to eventually emerge as an economic powerhouse and a world power. Even though the Confederates, especially those belonging to the Planter Class, believed that their economic wellbeing, and perhaps even life itself, was tied to the system of slavery, they seemed oblivious to the gains of industrialization in the North. As a result, the citizens of most slaveholding states, the majority of whom didn’t own slaves, were willing to secede from their beloved…
