In 1861, Southerners were mainly optimistic about the war. The war lasted from 1861 to 1865, and the Union was ultimately victorious.
The civil war lasted for four years due to the initial stalemate in the war in the early years and the willingness of the southerners to fight for their home and way of life.
The Civil War lasted from April 12, 1861 to May 9, 1865. The war went on for over 4 years and ended after Robert E. Lee surrendered.
The US Civil War (1861-1865) and the Vietnam War (1961-1975) are the only wars in which US citizens experienced a military defeat. In both wars the NORTH defeated the SOUTH. In both wars the Southerners/GI's fighting for South Vietnam were treated harshly (called and treated as "losers") by their fellow US Citizens. Even though the US Civil War was a victorious United States victory, the Confederates (Southerners) were still Americans. Secondly, the Vietnam War was our longest war, outlasting the American Revolutionary War by several years.
Yes. That was what the war was about. Preceding the war, southerners had slaves and the northerners didn't think it was right. Therefore, the Civil War happened. Hope this helped! Mckennaj
The Confederacy
Actively enthusiastic, and arrogantly sure that they could wipe out the Yankees after a few brisk marches and skirmishes. They did not consider the possibility of a long war, and their own weak position as a non-manufacturing region.
The American Civil War 1861-1865 (The War of Northern Aggression as the southerners claim) )
The civil war went on from 1861 to 1865.
The Civil War went on April 12, 1861 - May 9, 1865.
in 1861 president Abraham Lincoln, Went to war with the southern states witch had seceded from the union
Anytime a nation is fighting itself (normally WITHOUT outside help) it is generally considered a civil war. The US Civil War (1861-1865) was also called the US War of Rebellion. Which is why the Southerners in the US Civil War were called "Rebels."
it was to preserve the union... this may not the whole thing.... but I'm sure it was part of it..

Creek War
Yes, the southerners fought a secession war, commonly known as the American Civil War, which lasted from 1861 to 1865. The conflict arose after several Southern states seceded from the Union, primarily over issues related to slavery and states' rights. The war was fought between the Confederate States of America, comprised of the seceding states, and the Union states that remained loyal to the federal government. Ultimately, the war resulted in the preservation of the Union and the abolition of slavery.
