AlekseyPX
1. Major Robert Anderson-- Anderson was the commander in charge at Fort Sumter. He was in control of the fort when Confederate forces attacked. He surrendered the fort after a day and an half of fighting due to a lack of supplies. 

2. James Buchanan-- Buchanan was president when the first southern states seceded from the Union. He suggested to southern states that they had the right to break from the Union. Many argue he could have prevented the secession if he would have stood taller. 

3. Abraham Lincoln-- elected in 1860, his upcoming presidency was used as the reason for southern states to secede from the Union. He was president through the entirety of the Civil War and is credited for preserving the Union through his efforts. 

4. Edwin M Stanton-- Lincoln's Secretary of War and a key adviser to Lincoln in managing the war. He would go on through Andrew Johnson's presidency and fight against his Reconstruction policies. 

5. Samuel Morse-- Morse's invention of a telegraph code increased communication during the war and allowed for coded messages to travel quickly across the country. 

6. Rutherford B. Hayes-- Hayes was elected president in 1876 under the agreement that Reconstruction would end. Hayes ended the federal occupation of the South and allowed for southern states to take control of their governments. 

7. Winfield Scott-- Scott was a professional solider and helped to create the first armed forces in the US. Scott's Anaconda Plan was adopted and was a successful plan to cut off resources to the South. 

8. Andrew Johnson-- Johnson was Lincoln's vice president for his second term. He was a Democrat and chosen to help transition the country from war to peace. He took over as president when Lincoln was assassinated. 

9. Ulysses S Grant-- Grant was a Union general and one that proved to win over the respect of Lincoln. He would later be elected as president and be one of the most corrupt presidencies in US history. 

10. Jefferson Davis-- Davis was elected president of the Confederacy after resigning from the Senate in 1861. His resignation came after Mississippi seceded from the Union.
