Does Jefferson want war or peace?

After seceding, he would have been quite happy without a war, if Lincoln had granted official recognition to the Confederacy. But when Lincoln declared that he would defend Fort Sumter (which the Confederacy considered its own), and then called for new volunteer troops, Davis felt he had to mobilise.


What step did Lincoln announce after the Battle of Antietam and what did this force foreign countries to do?

After the Battle of Antietam, Lincoln announced the Emancipation Proclamation. This discouraged foreign governments from recognizing the Confederacy, because Lincoln had, with the proclamation, made the confederacy the poster child of slavery, and the people of the foreign countries that were considering recognizing the confederacy didn't want to be associated with the pro-slavery side of anything.

How did Jefferson Davis become president of the confederacy?

He didn't want to be. He was hoping to be General-in-Chief. But he was 'kicked upstairs', because he looked like the good face of slave-owning. (He treated his slaves so well, they didn't want their freedom.) The Confederate government thought this would encourage free nations abroad to grant recognition to the Confederacy and send military aid.
