Civil War: Timeline & Info


     This timeline is very helpful and detailed. It talks about all the different occurrences during the Civil War. If you are looking for play by play of what happened during the Civil War this is the place to look! The Civil War was a great trivial period in our country, half of the country wanted slaves and the other half did not; Therefore, the Missouri Compromise of 1857, by Henry Clay, came around to try to negotiate the problem. The Compromise never passed because it was declared unconstitutional.
     In April of 1861, General P.G.T. Beauregard attacked Ft. Sumter and President Davis ordered Confederates to attack the federals at Ft. Sumter. Those two things are what started the Civil War. At the Battle of Ft. Sumter the Confederates won (most of the battles in the Civil War are Confederate victories).
