On this day in 1861, in order to finance the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Revenue Act, imposing the first federal income tax in U.S. history.

<u> Explanation: </u>

The main aim of the taxation is for the finance of war effort. An act called Internal Revenue Act was formulated by the congress in the 1862 which formed a governing body called Bureau of Internal Revenue who will take care of the collection of taxes.

The money collected in the form of taxes has reduced the burden of the government war spending but on the other side it has affected the livelihood of the people in America.

The mixed response from the general public has paved way for the conflict in the society and led to the unrest. But on the other hand the revenue collected from the taxation is used for policy related projects and urban infrastructure development.

Aloiza [94]

The South: The South believed in using the "Diplomacy plan & King Cotton" which was to use cotton (which was the South's main crop) to sway European nations into helping the South by providing resources & equipments for the south to win the war.

The North: The North believed in the Anaconda Plan, which was to cut off all relations between the South and the world, encircle the South and barricade so that no resources enter, and to slowly "squeeze" the South until their resources are drained, and then give the final blow.
