The bombardment of the Federal Fort Sumter in the Charleston, South Carolina harbor, and its surrender shortly afterwards, was the conflict that led to the US Civil War. After Fort Sumter, President Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers to help end the Southern rebellion. This prompted four other Southern states, Virginia, North Carolina, Arkansas and Tennessee to join the Confederacy. Armed conflicts were light in the first few months of the war. In late July, however, the large Battle of Bull Run began and it was a Southern victory.
