Before Lincoln’s election, the United States was very tense. The soon-to-be Confederates were in support of slavery, (as it was helpful on their large plantations) while the future union was against it. In the election of 1860, Abraham Lincoln ran to represent the northern states, while two other candidates represented the southern ones. Because the South had two candidates running,  The southern votes were split between them, while Lincoln got all of the northern votes, leading him to win the election.  This made the south very upset, as they knew that Lincoln was against slavery. A year later,  during the attack of fort Sumter, the Confederates fight against Lincolns ideas to protect their slavery. That was the whole purpose of the Civil War. The debate over slavery. In summary, the attack on Fort Sumter, a union fort, was due to the Confederate’s wanting for slavery and the Union’s opposition to it.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Loki is a god in Norse mythology. According to some sources, Loki is the son of Fárbauti (a jötunn) and Laufey (mentioned as a goddess), and the brother of Helblindi and Býleistr. Loki is married to Sigyn and they have a son, Narfi and/or Nari. By the jötunn Angrboða, Loki is the father of Hel, the wolf Fenrir, and the world serpent Jörmungandr. Loki, in the form of a mare, was impregnated by the stallion Svaðilfari and gave birth to the eight-legged horse Sleipnir. Loki is referred to as the father of Váli in Prose Edda, though this source also refers to Odin as the father of Váli twice, and Váli is found mentioned as a son of Loki only once.
