how many civil war battles were fought in the North?

Answer 1

Well, by north, I will assume you mean free states, since there were three slave states that stayed in the Union, but only by the narrowest margin. For instance, Kentucky and Missouri was almost exclusively pro-confederacy, and the only thing that saved them from joining the south was a waffly congress who couldn't make up their mind before outside forces made it for them.

That being said, there was only one real battle on Union soil, Gettysburgh. Kentucky was ravaged as both forces converged on it, and several small but important skirmishes were fought in Missouri, and one act of Canada-based confederates raiding a town in Vermont, but Gettysburgh is the only battle that really qualifies as a battle in the North.

Answer 2

as a lot as I hate slavery, i'd wrestle for the South. i'm an organization believer in state rights and considering the fact that the structure is silent on slavery except for Article a million, section 9, Congress is restricted, expressly, from prohibiting the "Importation" of slaves and change 13 - Slavery Abolished up until eventually the passing the the change the states must have determined the placement. yet once you rather seem into it the Civil conflict wasn't fought over slavery, it became fought over “states’ rights and economics (some say it became became specially fought over economics and not state rights) , it became only in the course of the conflict that slavery became the vital situation of the conflict. It had always been between the topics yet Lincoln had a very unpopular conflict on his fingers and desire a vital situation to rally the country and his troops round and he picked slavery, with the northern states being antagonistic to slavery, it gave them and reason to rally round. So i'd might want to assert i'd wrestle for the south, because i'm for state rights.

Answer 3

Not sure of the number, but am told that Croton, Iowa is the furthest north battlefield. A Southern Cannonball hit a house during the Battle of Athens, MO.

I had the priviledge of touring the little town for all of 5 minutes.

Answer 4

Gettysburg and Antietam were the two major ones. The farthest north action was in St. Albans, Vt. when a Confederate raiding party came down from Canada and robbed a bank. There were several small skirmishes in Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky.

Answer 5

I think Gettysburg was the only major battle actually in the North.
