The first shots of the American Civil War were fired at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, South Carolina, on April 12, 1861. This event marked the beginning of the conflict between the Union and the Confederate states. The fort was a symbol of federal authority in the South, and its bombardment signified the deepening divide between the two sides.
