Answer:

The turning point of the Civil War was the Battle of Gettysburg, fought near Gettysburg , Pennsylvania , on July 1-3, 1863. The Northern Virginia army, commanded by Confederate chief commander, Gen. Robert E. Lee, faced the Union Army of the Potomac headed by Gen. George G. Meade. After having smashed Union forces at Chancellorsville, Lee invaded the North for a second time. The battle lasted 3 days of ferocious, bloody and brutal fight. The most famous part of the battle is the charge of Gen. George Pickett´s  division with 15,000 men against the lines of the Northern infantry, an action that ended in utter failure. The stakes were high: Lee had invaded Northern territory and wanted to advance to Washington to force the Abraham Lincoln´s government to negotiate peace in disadvantage. His defeat not only forced him to go back to Virginia: the South was never able to threaten the North again and since that moment on, fought only on the defensive. Casualties mounted to 51,000 on both sides, the bloodiest single battle of the war.

American revolution vs french revolution
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: The American Revolution was similar and different from the French Revolution. In the American Revolution, the 13 colonies were fighting for independence from Britain. In the French Revolution, the French were rebelling against King Louis XVI, who had abysmal economic policies. The difference between the American Revolution and the French Revolution was that the French Revolution was much more violent and radical. The American Revolution was not as violent nor radical. The American Revolution and the French Revolution were both started by economic decisions by a monarch.
