If we forget the past, then we may repeat it. The Civil War was important because of what we fought for. Our own country split into 2 sides and fought one another over the human rights of African Americans, among other issues. Today, we still fight for human rights, though we no longer go to war over it.
The Civil War is important because it helped to free African Americans from slavery. Most Confederate soldiers (in the South) neither owned slaves nor were particularly devoted to keeping slavery legal. In fact, many Southerners (including the famous General Robert E. Lee) opposed slavery. Most Confederate soldiers fought because they felt that the North was taking over their history, land, and way of life. Confedrates no longer wanted to be part of a country that seemed to be unfair in its laws, taxation, and leadership.
Still, Abraham Lincoln promised freedom to slaves during this war, and he made good on that promise with the Emancipation Proclamation. One hundred years later, Martin Luther King would fight for more rights for blacks during the Civil Rights Movement.
Perhaps just as important, the Civil War kept the United States from being split into two separate countries. Today, we would not be the unified, strong world power that we are if the Civil War had not been successful for the Union side.
There is a civil war still going on today.
Yes but it is not as important as it was before and during the Civil War Era and up until the early 1900.
There is no civil war on today.
If we hadn't had the civil war than we might still have slaves today. Also as a reprecution of that, former slaves began demanding for more rights and then that led to women and every other minority out there to stand up for their basic rights. So if there had been no civil war, women might still not even be able to vote.
There are both very important to America. But The Revolutionary I think is a little more important because it started America, but the civil war almost ended America and did for a few years but the Revolutionary War is more important

No. The overwhelming majority of Kansas residents approve of the Union's position in the Civil War today. This is unlike Missouri, for example, where a substantial minority still have Confederate sympathies.
