Economics was the major reason for the Civil War. Slavery really was an economic issue, not a moral one. The southern plantation owners had paid much money for their slaves to work their plantations. If slavery were prohibited, they would have lost the means to survive because they could not have afforded to buy slaves and then later pay workers to run the plantations.\n\nAlso, remember, the North had an industrial economy and the South had an agrarian society. These clashed, and there was a big concern over who was going to control the rich and expansive lands in the West.

I loved learning about the civil war, i was born in Atlanta and it is still to this day a big part of heritage in the south.  I think its great for ppl to learn to because most ppl believe that the whole war was based on slavery and that is totally not true it was just a minor detail.

There are 4 primary causes of the US civil war (I'm assuming this is the one you want).\n\n1.  federalism--favouring a strong centralized government as opposed to strong state governments.\n2.  slavery\n3. expansionism--extending control into new territory\n4.  sectionalism--blind focus on the interest of a section or region instead of the whole.

The Great American Civil War.  It not only tore our country in two but we also had many political issues of the time (Civil Rights,  Internal Revenue Act of 1862, Legal Tender Act, Land Grant colleges and even the creation of the draft).  Also, it was as much as a home front war as it was abroad in a political sense.  England, France, Germany, and Ireland all contributed to the war efforts.  Either by sending troops, weapons, or ships- they all contributed.  \n\nGranted The revolution and the world wars shaped our country, but I feel the Civil War played the most important role.\n\nThe blacks could still be slaves, our country could be split in two which inevitably could create more wars here.  Our lives could be forever changed... France would of re-taken parts they lost in the Louisiana purchase. (After the civil war France was fought off from re-taking parts of Texas, they were in camped in Mexico)\n\nIt could be scary.  What about you?  What do you think was the most important thing in our nations history, that changed the course?

These are very common subjects. You may consider doing research or checking class notes. For lack of that,\nthere was a big burst of industry after the civil war. Things became more advanced. More people moved to the United States and of course, emancipation of slaves had a great effect on the diversity of the population. Maybe these facts can help you to understand what sort of development you're looking for?\n\nSorry I couldn't be more helpful!

You can call or write the web site cited below and ask for Kay Jorgensen and ask for the advertiser who runs a company who supplies that information (He does any gun not just Civil War Guns) for which you are asking.  Come to think of it you could write or call her at  mail@civilwarnews.com or  1(800) 777-1862.  Tell her Gary sent you, she'll never figure it out.  :-)  God Bless You and The Southern People.
