1 UNIT 3: POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONFLICT LESSON 3.7: CIVIL WAR LEADS TO RECONSTRUCTION

2 Activate In your opinion, what are the top 3 causes of the Civil War?

3 Frayer / secede

4 THE UNION DISSOLVES

5 Setting the stage In the end, all attempts to compromise between the north and south over slavery failed to end sectional differences. Finally, the outcome of the 1860 election triggered a showdown and the first shots of the long, bloody civil war.

6 DEMOCRATS SPLIT Northern Democrats supported popular sovereignty Southern Democrats wanted Dred Scott decision upheld Republicans nominated Lincoln With Democratic votes split, Lincoln wins election of 1860

7 AP 1 Think pair share How is it that a man that received 0 votes in the south was able to win the election of 1860? What problem does this pose for the nation?

8 SECESSION BEGINS For south, election of a Republican president = a victory for abolitionists Survival of southern society at stake By Feb. 1861, 7 southern states seceded (page 306) Crittendon’s Compromise = allow slavery where it exists, extend Missouri Compromise line to California. It failed Feb. 1861 the seceding states announce new nation = confederacy, and new president = Jefferson Davis

9 THE CIVIL WAR BEGINS In his inaugural address, Lincoln spoke directly to the seceding states He repeated his promise not to interfere w/ slavery where it existed Announces his desire to save the union, and to hold onto federal property in seceding states

10 AP 2 Think Pair Share What was Lincoln’s main objective when the south formed the Confederate States of America? Do you think his objectives are going to change as the War goes on? Explain.

11 FORT SUMTER FALLS In April, 1861, Lincoln announced that the federal government would resupply Fort Sumter Jefferson cannot allow federal troops to occupy the Souths most important harbor = capture fort his forces demanded that major Anderson surrender = he refused confederates bombard the fort until Anderson and his men surrender

12 Focus How is it that a man that received 0 votes in the south was able to win the election of 1860? What problem does this pose for the nation? What was Lincoln’s main objective when the south formed the Confederate States of America?

13 UPPER SOUTH SECEDES After fall of Fort Sumter, Lincoln calls on volunteers Many in south did not want to secede, but felt they had no choice Virginia seceded next, and capital of confederacy moved to Richmond Soon three more states seceded

14 HANGING ONTO THE BORDER STATES Lincoln tried to keep slave holding border states from leaving if Maryland seceded, dc (the capital) would be surrounded Lincoln placed Baltimore under martial law to prevent secession

15 HANGING ONTO THE BORDER STATES - CONTINUED Kentucky declared itself neutral until September 1861, when troops on both sides occupied state Pro confederate leaders created a rival government and seceded Missouri stayed with union despite struggles between anti and pro secessionist forces the stage now shifts to the battle field

16 AP 3 Think Pair Share Why was it important to Lincoln to force the South to be the first to fire a shot? Why was hanging onto Maryland critical to the Union war effort? Do the means justify the ends?

17 The Civil War War continues for 4 long years, and is America’s bloodiest war with 600,000 killed. This conflict not only divided the nation but will shape it’s future development, as the political struggle will continue over how to readmit the former Confederate states.
