The Civil War

1860
In the winter of 1860, a new president named Abraham Lincoln was elected. He was against slavery, as were many people in the northern states.
However, some states disagreed. One state, called South Carolina, left the union because they disagreed with the president.



1861
In early 1861, more states in the south left the union. They formed their own army, and by April, the Civil War had officially started. The states in the South were fighting with the states in the North.
There were lots of battles between the North and the South, like "The Battle of Big Bethel" in Virginia
and "The Battle of Wilson's Creek" in Missouri.

1862
1862 was the second year of the war. The fight extended beyond the land and into the sea. In one of the most famous battles, "The Battle of the Ironclads", was a fight between steam-propelled Naval warships in Norfolk, VA. The Monitor was the ship of the Union, and the Merrimac was the ship of Confederacy.
