The+Cival+War

I see... Two men holding cigars in each others mouth. The men are wearing two different uniforms. Their hands are backwards They are actually holding the cigars to their own mouths They appear to be soldiers. It mean... They may be brothers. They are on different sides of the war

The brother on the right fought for the union and the one on the left for the confederacy. This is weird because twin brothers would be shoot ing at each other. Shows how the war is splitting everyone apart.

I would stay with Massachusetts and would not help the U.S. army. Even though I may not agree with the secession, all of my friends and family live here. I would never come in and kill every one I know. Even though I disagree completely and am probably going to die, I will fight with Massachusetts.

They are not fighting for slavery, they are fighting for their lives.

Some similarities of the succession acts of the thirteen states are that all or at least most state that they have a problem with Abraham Lincoln being President. They also State that they no longer want to follow the constitution. A: Governor of Florida P: Florida P: Florida no longer wants to be part of the united states. A: United States Government. R: This was written so Florida could secede from the U.S and become an independent nation. T: The main idea of this document is to show that Florida will not have Abraham Lincoln as president and no longer want to be apart of the U.S. S: This document shows how Florida did not care for the way the U.S was running things so they seceded from them. A: The Governor of South Carolina P: Charleston, South Carolina P: South Carolina was a southern state who seceded from The U.S. A: The U.S Government R: To tell America that South Carolina no longer wishes to follow the constitution nor be apart of the United states. T: The main idea is that South Carolina does not wish to be apart of the United States any more. S: It shows that that this country was willing to risk their lives to get their way.

Reflection: These secession documents don't really give any reasons to way they want to secede, and if they do it is very blunt. I would not sign any secession act because I would want to be apart of The United States.

media type="custom" key="9689084" The northern strategy was to blockade the south. The souths strategy was to defend. The southern one is more effective because the northern one takes to much time. 1. Anaconda plan: Blockade with navy to stop the souths trade with Britian. Confederates: Defend their homes. The confederate plan is more effective because is more effective because the union take to long. 2. Gatling gun, ironclads, mini balls, rifles. 3. I think that the union was winning because So many people died in the civil war because of the gatling gun and other new technologies that killed people quicker and more efficiently. The gatling gun was probably the biggest reason.

Gettysburg, PA- Biggest bloodiest battle in U.S History. Reading 1 questions: 1. The south had the advantage on the first day. They suprised the union with their attack and had more men then them. They definitely should have been more successful. 2. The main strengths of both armies had arrived on the field. 3. Having attacked the ends of the union line the previous day, he decided to assail them. The Union held their position anyway. 4. They had lost repeatedly and lost many men, so they had no choice but to withdrwal. Part B Questions: 1. He approved of its assertion and maintenance. 2. They offered to keep him in the army, nut not put him in the fight so he would not have to battle his own people. All Parts questions: 1. The show how people faced conflict when their state seceded while they were part of the U.S army. It does show the pain and suffering they went through to make this decision 2. They could be making the entire thing up to make themselves look better. There isn't any other proof of what they said was true because no one else would have the same personal accounts. Reading 3 questions: 1. Two years after the war started. 2. The people who gave their lives can live. 3. 4. he wanted them to take increased devotion from them.be

The emancipation proclamation was a stategic move by Lincoln because if the south got rid of slvery, Britian would have joined them.

Slaves were freed in rebelling states. Border states didnt rebel but had slaves. Emancipation proclamation > made war about slavery The emancipation proclamation made the war about slavery. Because of this britian would not join the south because they supported slavery. It also made the south look like the bad guys in the eyes of the world. Abraham Lincoln was trying to get rid of slavery but yet he was counting on the south to keep it?-no There were states in the north that had slavery and they are allowing it but they want the south to get rid of theirs.
