How did the election of abraham lincoln further divide the united states?

History

katrin2010 [14]4 years ago
4 0
The election of Abraham Lincoln split the United States tremendously. With the election of Lincoln, southerners feared that their way of life was in danger. They felt that Lincoln's election would eventual result in outlawing the institution of slavery.

This fear caused southern states to take dramatic action. Roughly one month after the election of Lincoln, South Carolina seceded (left) the United States. After South Carolina, states like Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi seceded as well. Ultimately the secession of states like this resulted in the creation of the Confederate States of America, which sets the scene for the Civil War.

Why was an American victory at Saratoga important to the American cause?
Xelga [282]
C. It persuaded France and Spain to become allies. The Battle of Saratoga in 1777 is considered a turning point in the American Revolutionary War. Before the battle, the continental army rarely engaged in open battles with the British, instead using guerrilla tactics and secret ambushes in skirmish fights in the beginning of the war. The continental army needed foreign aid if it wanted to win the war against the much more professionally organized British army. France and Spain were rivals with Britain, but needed proof that the colonists may take on the British army in an open battle if it wanted to join the war on the colonists' side. The continental army had the opportunity to do so at the Battle of Saratoga in upstate New York, and successfully drove back British forces from Canada in open combat, allowing the French and Spanish to join the war against Britain.
