Though no longer a series of colonies, the United States retains close ties to Britain as part of a "special relationship."
The history of the United States and Great Britain have pages of wars, agreements, more wars, differences, good moments, and understanding.
Since the first English explorers arrived at North America and founded the colony of Jamestown, Virginia in 1607, there have been all kinds of events and incidents between the two nations. Heavy taxations imposed by the English Crown, rebellion acts such as the Boston Tea Party, wars such as the Revolutionary Wars, strategic alliances in World War 1 and II, but at the end, there is a tight bond that will always unite these two nations in a special kind of relationship that is reflected, for instance, in their trade relations.

States' Rights
The idea of states' rights was not new to the Civil War. Since the Constitution was first written there had been arguments about how much power the states should have versus how much power the federal government should have. The southern states felt that the federal government was taking away their rights and powers.
Slavery
At the heart of much of the South's issues was slavery. The South relied on slavery for labor to work the fields. Many people in the North believed that slavery was wrong and evil. These people were called abolitionists. They wanted slavery made illegal throughout the United States. Abolitionists such as John Brown, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, and Harriet Beecher Stowe began to convince more and more people of the evil of slavery. This made the South fearful that their way of life would come to an end.
Secession
When Lincoln was elected, many of the southern states decided they no longer wanted to be a part of the United States. They felt that they had every right to leave. Starting with South Carolina, eleven states would eventually leave the United States and form a new country called the Confederate States of America. Abraham Lincoln said they did not have the right to leave the United States and sent in troops to stop the South from leaving. The Civil War had begun.
