He was charged by the House officially by two articles of impeachment, charging Clinton with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. On September 9, 1998, the special prosecutor submitted to Congress a 445-page, sexually graphic report. The Starr Report found “substantial and credible” evidence of presidential wrongdoing, prompting the House of Representatives on October 8 to begin a wide-ranging impeachment inquiry of the president. Thirty-one Democrats joined the Republicans in supporting the investigation. On December 19, 1998, William Jefferson Clinton became the second president to be impeached by the House of Representatives. The House officially approved two articles of impeachment, charging Clinton with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. House Speaker Newt Gingrich led the effort to impeach the president over the Lewinsky scandal—even though he himself was secretly engaged in an adulterous affair with a congressional staffer.

In 3+ sentences, explain why do you think the U.S.A. had to fight a war to end slavery while most other countries ended slavery
andrew11 [14]
The war was fought because America was built upon slavery. During the Industrial Age, the northern economy no longer needed slavery. The south however was wasn’t ready nor was trying as hard to give up its dependency on slavery. The south economy would plummet and life for southerners would drastically make a down spiral if they couldn’t have access to expensive but efficient workers you never had to pay for.
