Answer 2

The North created a Union and wanted to bring the South into it. The "union" refers to the federal government that was in place at the start of the civil war. Abraham Lincoln was president at the time and one of the things the Union wanted to do was end slavery which was still present in the eleven southern states that opposed the Union. As a result of the South disagreeing with the Union, they formed their own government and called it the "Confederacy". When serious talk of war on both sides came about, the south were poorly informed. The North had better ammo, better weapons, more men, and so on. What really hit the south hard was that the North were able to cut off shipping in the south of cotton between the south and England who were buying the cotton. A good chunk of the money made in the south was from cotton and now they were making none which sent many people in the south to financial ruin. They had it in their minds that they were "going to lick the yankees in a matter of days" but the war lasted four years and the south were ultimately defeated. Abraham Lincoln lived to see the end of the war which was officially declared on April 9, 1865. However, Lincoln was shot and killed a few days later.
