WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST ASAP!!! PLEASE HELP!!! What is the main idea of this excerpt of Abraham Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Addre

ss?
On the occasion corresponding to this four years ago, all thoughts were anxiously directed to an impending civil-war. All dreaded it — all sought to avert it. While the inaugural address was being delivered from this place, devoted altogether to saving the Union without war, insurgent agents were in the city seeking to destroy it without war — seeking to dissolve the Union, and divide effects, by negotiation. Both parties deprecated war; but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive; and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.

A.
Both the Union and the Confederacy wanted to destroy their enemy.
B.
Both the Union and the Confederacy were responsible for the Civil War.
C.
Both the Union and the Confederacy desired total authority by eliminating the other.
D.
Both the Union and the Confederacy suffered huge economic losses due to the Civil War.
E.
Both the Union and the Confederacy had stockpiled deadly weapons for the Civil War.

The main idea of Abraham Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address is that both the Union and the Confederacy were responsible for the Civil War. The second inaugural address was held at Washington D.C in 1865. From the excerpts, both the Union and Confederacy did not initially want to go to war but wanted to be victorious.

So the answer is B. Hope this helped!

This is true.

Congress only passed about 300 of the 650 proposed bills, and many of the ones rejected were his "New Frontier" bills.
