In The
Civil War

In the mid-1800s, the United States had grown apart. Since the beginning of the colonies more than 200 years earlier, two regions of the country had developed in very different ways. They were not the same for many reasons, but the rising tension was starting to tear the nation apart. By 1860, after years of compromise on several issues, war could no longer be avoided. The time of peace and unity would be shattered by the American Civil War.
