The correct answer is "Lincoln did not want armed conflict at Fort Sumter, but Davis acted quickly to cripple Union forces".
Lincoln was certainly adamant about avoiding military confrontation over the Fort. <u>His aims were put in preserving the Union</u>, <u>which proved to be extremely hard as the conflicts were started by the sates that had separated or seceded</u>, as well as the first attacks on Fort Sumter.
Davis cared a lot less about preservation and just tried to find <u>the quickest and most effective way to mitigate the conflict</u>. He believed crippling the Union's army would make them leave as they would not have enough time to respond and they'd be at a great disadvantage.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Peasants’ Revolt, also called Wat Tyler’s Rebellion, (1381), first great popular rebellion in English history. Its immediate cause was the imposition of the unpopular poll tax of 1380, which brought to a head the economic discontent that had been growing since the middle of the century. The rebellion drew support from several sources and included well-to-do artisans and villeins as well as the destitute. Probably the main grievance of the agricultural labourers and urban working classes was the Statute of Labourers (1351), which attempted to fix maximum wages during the labour shortage following the Black Death.
The uprising was centred in the southeastern counties and East Anglia, with minor disturbances in other areas. It began in Essex in May 1381, taking the government of the young king Richard II by surprise. In June rebels from Essex and Kent marched toward London. On the 13th the Kentish men, under Wat Tyler, entered London, where they massacred some Flemish merchants and razed the palace of the king’s uncle, the unpopular John of Gaunt, duke of Lancaster. The government was compelled to negotiate. On the 14th Richard met the men of Essex outside London at Mile End, where he promised cheap land, free trade, and the abolition of serfdom and forced labour. During the king’s absence, the Kentish rebels in the city forced the surrender of the Tower of London; the chancellor, Archbishop Simon of Sudbury, and the treasurer, Sir Robert Hales, both of whom were held responsible for the poll tax, were beheaded.
