Answer: it represented the final chance for a lasting reconciliation between Union and Confederate forces on Southern soil

Explanation:

Fort Sumter guarded the harbor at Charleston, South Carolina, and was commanded by the Unionist Major Robert Anderson. Secessionists forces demanded total withdrawal of federal forces from the fort. Lincoln understood that giving up on Fort Sumter would be giving up the Union. He ordered the resupply of the Fort, but President Jefferson Davis and his Confederates decided to not follow Lincoln's decision.  At four-thirty on the morning of April 12, the Confederate shelling of Fort Sumter began. And after 36 hours of crossfire, the Unionists lowered the flag on April 13. The fall of Fort Sumter started the Civil War and ignited a wave of bravado across the Confederate states. The guns of Charleston signaled the end of the waiting game.

Type a paragraph explaining how we are linked with the Godhead.
Umnica [9.8K]
According to Christian faith, God is love. So when we think about God, we don't actually imagine a bearded old man sitting on a cloud watching over us. God doesn't have a form because it is an abstract idea which encompasses beautiful and good feelings such as love, empathy, happiness, caring, compassion, etc. So I guess you could say that in a way, by experiencing such feelings, we are closer to God because God is within all of us.
