Longstreet's forces linked up with Jackson's and drove Pope's back to his starting point.
Confederates under Lee, who defeated a General he had known and despised in the old army, John Pope.
In the First Battle of Bull Run, it was close to a draw. In the Second Battle of Bull Run it was a decisive victory for the Confederates. They failed however to exploit their win and lost the chance to take the Union Capitol.The Confederate Army led by Robert E. Lee won the battle of 2nd Bull Run or 2nd Manassas.
Shiloh, Chattanooga, First Mannasas (Bull Run), Second Mannasas, Chickamauga (Correction) Not Shiloh. But plenty of others: Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville et al.
After the 1st bull run occurred, there was a second bull run. It was a confederate victory. The union was overpowered and driven back. The next major battle after the 1st and 2nd Bull run (aka, the first and second Manassas) was the battle of Antietam. This battle was inconclusive. It was a bloody one day battle and, when General Robert E. Lee retreated to tend to his wounded, the Union claimed victory (even though they didn't really win).
Near Manassas Junction and the Bull Run River. Both were called First and Second Manassas by the Confederates and First and Second Bull Run by the Union.
They won both the battles at Bull Run/Manassas. First was July 21st 1861. Second was August 29th 1862.
No. If the North had won the First Battle of Bull Run, the war would probably have been won much sooner than four years. However, the North did not win this battle, or the Second Battle of Bull Run either.
First Bull Run was the first pitched battle of the war, and simply demonstrated to everyone that neither side was ready for operaitons. It was seven months before any more major battles. Second Bull Run made Lee so confident that he was ready to invade the North, in order to impress the British of Confederate viability, and gain official recognition and military aid. (Only the accidental Union win at Antietam prevented this.)
The First Battle of Bull Run in 1861 resulted in a humiliating defeat for the Union Army. The Second Battle of Bull Run in the following year was also a Confederate victory, although not as humiliating for the Union as they retreated in good order, while First Bull Run had been a rout. The First Battle of the Bull Run shattered illusions on both sides of a quick and glorious war. The North was unable to win the battle, but neither was the South able to crush the North and keep them from coming back another day.
There were two battles of Bull Run in the US Civil War. The first one took place on July 21, 1861. Confederate leader Stonewall Jackson won over Union general McDowell.

The second battle of Bull Run was fought on August 29 to September 1, 1862. This time Confederate general Jackson won the battle over his opponent, Union general Pope.
