<span>The Freedom permanent still effects us today in many different ways. A couple examples the New Freedom still has a huge impact on Americans today is the Federal income tax, the election of senators, and the Federal Trade Commission. There have been some changes to these over the years but they still have their original purpose in today's society.</span>
Political Parties Splinter: The issue of slavery split the Democratic Party in two in 1860.
The Election of 1860: Slavery was the main issue and Lincoln wanted to ban it in all new territories, and since the north had a bigger population than the South Lincoln had the most votes and won.
Southern States secede: Before Lincoln took office, seven states left the Union. The Confederate States of America chose Jefferson Davis as their president, and the right to slaves was allowed in their Constitution
Efforts at Compromise Fail: When he took office, Lincoln tried to save the Union without war.
First Shots at Fort Sumter: Lincoln calls South Carolina to tell that he is going to send ships there to supply the fort.
Lincoln Calls out the Militia: Lincoln asked the Union states to provide 75,000 militiamen. Slave States who were still in the Union got mad and some left. This is where the Civil War started to kick off.
Hope this helps, have a blessed day! :-)
One reason why the Battle of Midway is considered the turning point of the war in the Pacific is because "<span>A. The battle stopped a Japanese attack on Hawaii and put the Japanese on the defense," since this put the favor towards the US in the Pacific. </span>
