Why did the South rebel against the Union after Abraham Lincoln was elected president?
SVEN [57.7K]

The Civil War was by far the most catastrophic event to ever happen in the American South. There have been at least a few discussions on whether Abraham Lincoln and the Republicans should have prosecuted the Civil War, but surprisingly very little analysis on whether South Carolina's secession in 1860 was a strategically wise move in the context of the American debate on slavery and states' rights.

Secession was driven by the Southern planter class. For the purposes of this article, let's stipulate that the preservation of slavery and the plantation economy was the primary objective in seceding from the United States. If that was the point of secession, then the strategy was an obvious disaster

what did article 231 of the treaty of versailles demand regarding german reparations after world war 1
ankoles [38]
<span>It was Article 231 that came to be called the War Guilt clause that held Germany responsible for causing the war.  It humiliated the Germans and they were very angry about it.  It also forced the Germans to pay for damages caused by the war.  This bitter resentment among the Germans would later be used by Adolf Hitler to rally the German people under his leadership and led to the rise of Nazism in Germany.  When Hitler assumed power, he began invading one country after another which led to World War II.</span>
