Kind of WAR.

It was a war between states.
In the background, it was a fight between two types of economies, an industrial- (North) and agrarian other one slave holder (South), which were totally different.


The Southerners declared that they were not fighting only for the slavery. After everything, the majority of the confederate soldiers were too poor to possess slaves.

The South was commited to a war of independence that was supporting the relations between the North and the South.

Result.

Victory for the North, meant the end of the Confederacy and of slavery in the United States, and changes the role of the federal government.

The social, political, economic and racial issues of the war decisively shaped the reconstruction era that lasted to 1877.


The slavery finished in the United States in the spring of 1865 when the confederate armies gave up themselves. All the slaves of the Federation were liberated by means of the Proclamation of Emancipation.
