Carolina – formed Confederate States of America (Pres. Jefferson Davis, Gen. Robert E. Lee) • Border states: Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri – crucial to Union success

  7. Advantages for Each Side UNION (U.S.A.) CONFEDERACY (C.S.A.) Larger territory – difficult to conquer Military leadership – maj. of West Point grads in South, incl. R.E. Lee (loyalty to VA rather than US) Passion – fighting for idea of freedom, willing to die (Union split over holding together over state rights) • Population (22mil-9mil) • Factories (110thou-18thou) • Value of goods produced ($1.5bil-$155mil) • Railroads (70% of tracks) • Textiles (17:1 ratio) • Firearms (32:1 ratio) • Iron production (20:1 ratio)

  22. Lincoln’s Slavery Evolution: Quotes • “I believe this government cannot endure permanently half-slave and half-free.” (1858) • “I have always hated slavery, as much as any abolitionist.” (1858) • “I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.” (1861) • “My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery.” (1862) • “Without slavery the rebellion could never have existed; without slavery it could not continue.” (1862) • “I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves within [the states in rebellion] are, and henceforth shall be free.” (1863) • “At the last session of Congress a proposed amendment of the Constitution abolishing slavery throughout the United States, passed the Senate, but failed for lack of the requisite two-thirds vote in the House of Representatives… I venture to recommend the reconsideration and passage of the measure at the present session.” (1864)
