The Course of the War

The North and South had different strategies for victory. The Union planned an aggressive campaign against the South. The South, meanwhile, planned to hold tight until the North lost the will to fight.

Emancipation and Life in Wartime

The Civil War began as a war to restore the Union, not to end slavery. President Lincoln made this point clear in a letter that was widely distributed:

“If I could save the Union without freeing any slave, I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves, I would do it; and if I could do it by freeing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that.”

—Abraham Lincoln, August 22, 1862, quoted in Carl Sandburg, Abraham Lincoln

The Compromise of 1850 dealt mainly with the Mexican Cession lands.

Conflicts and Compromises

In 1819, there were 11 free states in the North and 11 slave states in the South. The North and South had different economies, political views, and ideas about slavery. These differences created a growing sectionalism. Sectionalism is a rivalry or tension that develops between people who are loyal to their section, or region, of the country. This era of sectionalism lasted from the 1810s to the 1860s. As a result of sectionalism, there were many political conflicts over issues important to each region.
