What+caused+the+Civil+War?+CJK

There were multiple problems that caused the Civil War, but none more influential than the secession of the South. When the south seceded Lincoln had to get world on his side. The south made their own country, it was called the Confederate States of America, and they even had their own capital and president. The secession of the Southern States is what caused the Civil War to break out.

South Carolina was the first state to secede. The rest of the states that sucecced followed in South Carolinas foot steps soon after that event. With the southern states becoming their own country, came the nervousness of the North. After the firing on fort Sumter, Lincoln wanted to send troops to the south through Virginia. The Virginians did not want the troops going through their state, so they seceded to the Southern Confederacy.

Lincoln provoked the south to attack on the North so that he could get the world on his side which was very important. When a country splits into two the side that is being violent and trying to take over the other side the world backs the side that is being attacked. Now the North was backed by the world and the south was the enemy which was a very smart and important move that Lincoln made. This greatly effected the outcome of the war. He was sending supplies into for Sumter and thats when the South fired apon him and thats exactly what he wanted.

The suceccesion of the Southern states is what caused the Civil War. When the South sececced from the country the North became very nervous. The North was backed by the world because of Lincolns ingenious planning of provoking the South to attack. The Civil War was on its way and no one really knew what to think about it.
