Causes of the Civil War!
Political Causes:the gov. is holds some if not most of the blame because they were the ones making all these one sided bills that favored one side causing bitterness between states.
Social Causes:the south was full of sectionalism and so something that benefited the north and not the south really angered the southerners doing this brought the us one step closer to civil war. Economical Causes:The south was hugely based on agriculture and the north being mainly industrial led to tensions because of the different sometimes opposite needs.The north didn't like the south buying goods from Britannia so they were happy when the gov. started placing taxes on imports but this made the south mad because it made the stuff they needed that much more expensive. |
Timeline :the civil war was caused by a series of events,some big,some small ,but all important.THese events include the making of the declaration of 1850,the writing of "Uncle Toms Cabin" in 1852 that shined truth on the subject of slavery, the kansas nebraska act of 1854 , the Dred scott decision 1857, the lincoln douglas debates that divided the house in 1857, Harpers ferry in 1859, lincoln go elected that made carolina secede in 1860, that all led up to the civil war in 1861.
Connect to Self:Part 1
Recently my friend and I got into an argument about which instrument is better the trumpet or saxaphone .This argument went on for sometime if it had an effect at all on our friendship then it probably is a bad one.But in the end we worked it out and it made us realize afterward how trivial the argument was.

I would've sided with the south if they would've gotten rid of slavery because the gov clearly favored the north side.
