The Republican Party, founded in the 1850s, was significant in the 1800s as it emerged as a leading force against the expansion of slavery in the United States. It attracted a coalition of former Whigs, Free Soilers, and anti-slavery Democrats, advocating for a platform that promoted free labor and the preservation of the Union. The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 marked a pivotal moment, as his presidency led to the Civil War and ultimately the abolition of slavery. The party's emphasis on individual liberties and economic opportunity resonated with many Americans during a time of profound social and political change.
