Answer:
Explanation:
Amendments may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a convention of states called for by two-thirds of the state legislatures.[1] To become part of the Constitution, an amendment must be ratified by either—as determined by Congress—the legislatures of three-quarters of the states or state ratifying conventions in three-quarters of the states.[2] The vote of each state (to either ratify or reject a proposed amendment) carries equal weight, regardless of a state's population or length of time in the Union. Article V is silent regarding deadlines for the ratification of proposed amendments, but most amendments proposed since 1917 have included a deadline for ratification. Legal scholars generally agree that the amending process of Article V can itself be amended by the procedures laid out in Article V, but there is some disagreement over whether Article V is the exclusive means of amending the Constitution.
It started because Lincoln had won the 1860 election on a ticket of no new slave-states, so the South was doomed to be outvoted in Congress, which would pass laws that favoured the North at the expense of the South. So most of the slave-states broke away to form the Confederate States of America.
As for when it started, there was no actual declaration of war. The Confederacy could claim that it didn't want a war at all; it just wanted to defend its borders. Lincoln could not declare war on the Confederacy, because Congress did not recognise it as a sovereign nation.
The first shots were fired by the Confederates at the US Army garrison on the island of Fort Sumter in Charleston harbour on April 12th 1861, and Lincoln called for volunteer troops. The war was on.
