Arkansas had alot of troops to join the confederacy. Not alot happened in Arkansas but if it were not for the Confederacy it would not be a state. It was started by the confederacy. It was a territory before 1860.

The civil war was fought to keep the sovereignty of the states intact. The Confederacy fought for their freedom from the Union… and to KEEP slavery.

This was a period in which the former States of the Confederacy were impelled and coerced through a societal transformation.  During this period 10 to 15 percent of the white voters were disfranchised as the local Republican Party united illiterate blacks, “scalawags,” and northern “Carpetbaggers” into an unscrupulous political triumvirate that indulged in an orgy of extravagance, corruption, and debauchery.  (from “Emancipating Slaves, Enslaving Free Men,” by Jeffrey Rogers Hummel).  \n\nDuring this same period, the Union military occupation forces made elected members of some State legislatures removed from office because they would not support ratification of the 14th Amendment.  They then replaced these legislatures with hand picked individuals who would vote the way they wanted.  While this is clearly extra-Constitutional, in the 1869 case of Texas v. White these acts of the Union were justified as legitimate “by right of conquest.”  \n\nThese acts of reconstruction were far outside the intent for Reconstruction of President Lincoln (prior to his assassination) further destroying the culture of these States and building resentment which would last for generations into the future.  For those interested they could find interesting such books as:\n\n“The Tragic Era: The Revolution after Lincoln” by Claude G. Bowers;\n“History of the United States From the Compromise of 1850 to the Restoration of Home Rule in the South in 1877”, by James Ford Rhodes;\nAlso by William Archibald Dunning, “Reconstruction: Political and Economic, 1865 – 1877; and,\nEssays on the Civil War and Reconstruction,” 2nd edition.

must be a question from Arkansas

The Capitol of the United States, or the Union, was still in Washington, DC, so the capitols of the opposing sides of the Civil War (War Between the States, War of Secession, depending on who you ask) were only about 100 miles apart.\n\nActually, considering that the Confederate forces made it up into south-central Pennsylvania (Gettysburg), it's a wonder that Washington was not the scene of any battles during that war.

During the American Civil war, Texas fought on the side of the Confederate States, The first units were cavalry and fought in northern Ok. and Kansas. They were engaged in winning the favour of, or fighting against Native American tribes depending on the Union treaties of the day. Eventually the Texan soldiers were fighting directly against Union troops through out the war.

The Civil War years were worse.  Lincoln was absolutely hated because of the draft, the fact that the war wasn't going well.  There were quite a few courtmartials because of what Union troops said after he was killed

What aspect of the Civil War do you want facts about? The causes, battles, leaders, industry? You should be a little more specific with your question.

More differences between people in the North and The South. Formation of KKK. Decrease in racism and the end of slavery. It caused an increase in U.S. Pride and power.

This sounds like a homework question to me. Sorry, I won't help you. I feel you need to read BOTH and you come up with the answer. You need to know these things.\n\nI will tell you this. The North distorted the truth about the Civil War or War between the States.  The war was NOT fought because of slavery. The north had slaves too. They were fighting over textiles, cotton, land, resources it was all economic.

I just finished with the unit of the civil war, the Union had very unskilled soldiers but a lot of them, but the confederates had less soldiers with more skill, the confederates had the motherland aka England supply them but not enough supplies were able to come to them due to the fact that the Union had blocked most of the trade routes in the rivers, that wasone completed accomplishment.

?  If you mean the Battle of Gettysburg it was because Gen. Lee under the direction of Southern President Jefferson Davis needed a victory in the North to try and persuade the people in the North to pressure President Lincoln to sue for peace with the south. It would also have given European countries better reason for dealing arms to the Southern States.\n\nIf you mean what caused the Civil War or war "Between the States" it was due to several issues. Most of the Southerners were in it for what they considered to be States Rights. However many wealthy officers in that war were fighting for the right to keep slavery alive. They made huge profits for buying and selling slaves. They also had many cotton and sugar plantations where they worked the slaves that they owned. But slavery was only one of the issues.
