The nation had been divided throughout the 1850s on the issues surrounding the expansion of slavery and the rights of slave owners. In 1860, these issues finally came to the fore.
With the victory of Abraham Lincoln, a notorious participant in the struggle for the abolition of slavery, the United States faced, in the following year (1961), a conflict between the northern and southern states, which had radically different society projects. The southern states, mostly agrarian and in favor of the use of slave labor, influenced the 1960 election in that they voted for candidates who were moderate or even in favor of maintaining slavery, such as John Bell and Stephen Douglas, while Lincoln obtained massive votes from the North and West Coast states.
It convinced France to help the colonies in their struggle
Explanation:
- Burgoyne's quest to cut off New England from the southern colonies began well, but was slowed down by logistical problems.
- Burgoyne won a small tactical victory over General Gates and the Continental Army at the battle of Freeman's Farm on September 19 with considerable losses.
- His gains were nullified when he was attacked again on October 7 by the Americans at the Battle of Bemis Heights and captured part of the British defense system.
- Burgoyne was therefore forced to retreat, and his army was surrounded by a much larger US army near Saratoga, forcing him to surrender on October 17th.
- News of Burgoyne's surrender was the reason for France to formally enter the war as an ally of the Americans, though it had previously provided supplies, ammunition and cannon.
- The official involvement of France turned this war into a world war. This battle also resulted in the Spanish contribution to the war on the US side.

Answer:
Before the Cold War, the atomic age started. Three nations: England, USA and Soviet Union, decided that during World War II, they would construct the nuclear bomb. Britain set aside its own job and became a junior partner in 1943 of the Manhattan Project. Before August 1945, the Soviet effort was tiny. British and U.S projects were motivated by fear of a German nuclear bomb, but Germany chose not to make any severe attempts in 1942 to construct the bomb. The United States produced two bombs ready for use by August 1945, in an exceptional show of science and industrial power. By that time, Germany had been defeated, but President Harry S. Truman chose to use the Japan bomb.
