The Battle of Fort Sumter began on the night of April 12, 1861. The immediate results was the surrender of the fort by its commander Major Anderson. Soon afterwards, US President Lincoln called for 75,000 volunteers to serve for three months to help end the Southern rebellion. When this request was made the four other large slave states in the South, namely Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas all seceded from the Union and joined the other seven states that had already left the Union. The first state to do this was South Carolina in December of 1860.The armed conflict at Fort Sumter led to the beginning of the US Civil War.

The Confederate Congress stated in May of 1861 that it was at war with the US.

Hostilities began and when President Lincoln had addressed the US Congress on July 1, 1861 to ask fro funds and soldiers, that was the date the US Supreme Court declared that the war had begun. The date was important for the Union as acts of war committed by the US were important for international law purposes.
