Fort Sumter is generally regarded as the first battle of the Civil War. Basically, Confederate troops in the newly seceded state of South Carolina were able to repulse a supply ship which would have helped reinforce federal troops stationed there before them. Not only did this battle raise morale within the seceded states, it also convinced other states to secede as well.
