THE
CIVIL
WAR
1861-1865
The
U.S.
was
divided
over
the
issue
of
slavery.
The
North
wanted
to
abolish
slavery.
This
means
they
did
not
want
people
to
be
slaves.
There
was
a
secret
way
many
Northern
people
used
to
help
slaves
escape.
It
was
called
the
Underground
Railroad.
The
South
had
many
plantations
and
they
wanted
slaves
to
work
on
their
plantations.
Abraham
Lincoln
became
president
right
before
the
war.
He
did
not
believe
in
slavery.
In
1861,
the
Civil
War
began
between
the
Northern
states,
called
the
Union,
and
the
Southern
states,
called
the
Confederacy.
The
map
below
shows
how
the
states
were
divided.
