The Copperheads were a faction of Northern Democrats during the American Civil War who opposed the war and advocated for an immediate peace settlement with the Confederacy. They believed that continuing the conflict was detrimental to the nation and sought to negotiate an end to hostilities rather than pursue military victory. Their position was rooted in concerns over the war's impact on civil liberties and the economy, as well as a desire to preserve the Union through diplomacy rather than force.
