The Civil war was fought against the Confederacy and the Union. The Confederacy had an advantage at first because they had better generals like Robert E. Lee.
The Confederacy did not want to fight they just wanted to secede. This happened through 1860-1861 Jefferson Davis was their president .
Abraham Lincoln was the leader of the Union that had 24 states. He didn't want the south to leave he thought it would be easy and fast. Instead it was very long 600,000 people died in the battle.
Abraham issued the emancipation proclamation it stopped slavery.
