The American Civil War

Paper Summary:

This paper explores the causes of the American Civil War that have been obscured by the contemporary equality of all peoples. The paper looks at the great differences that helped start the war between, not only blacks and whites, but between the North and the South and between those who wished for a union with strong central government and those who believed in the formation of a conglomerate of states without a central authority. The paper chronologically reviews the major historic battles of the Civil War.

From the Paper:

"The CSA or Confederate States of America declared themselves conglomerate of states, lacking any final central authority. This division of power proved to be, towards the end of the war, ultimately unworkable. Eventually as well even the CSA debated the need to liberate the enslaved peoples within its borders, because of the untenable fact of having a nation divided between free people and enslaved people. The Union's way of life and industrialization was to triumph over the feudal system of agriculture and plantation-based economies of the South."
