The Civil War began when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina on April 12, 1861. The fort was a Union stronghold, and its commander, Major Robert Anderson, refused to surrender despite being cut off from supplies. After a 34-hour bombardment, Anderson surrendered the fort on April 13, marking the official start of hostilities between the North and South. This attack galvanized the Union and prompted President Lincoln to call for troops, escalating the conflict into a full-scale war.
