**__CIVIL WAR__**
=Secession Acts of the Thirteen Confederate States= similarties and differences APPARTS

A- 13 confederate states P- at the 13 confederate states p- south wanted to seeseed from the us and become the confederate states, becasue they didnt get a say in pro slavery or anti slavery A- the northern states and preisdent R- south doesnt like the idea of no slavery so they became the 13 confederate states and go against the US T-

A- south carolina p- south carolina p- didnt agree to abe linclon becoming pres...he was a abolishonist a- abe linclon rest of the US r-SC didnt get a say in the pro-anti slavery law t- SC didnt want to be apart of the US any longer becasue they where ignored s- SC joined the confederate states

a- folrida p- in folrida p-florida was not given a say in the action against slavery a- abe linclon and US r- they wanted slavery but the new law provolked that from that t- florida seeceed from the us becasue its voice was not heard s- also joined the union

reflection- the acts them selfs do make sense to me, if i didnt get what i wanted then i would leave to. BUT they have to considar what they would do with out the support of the US. Leaving the US would not be in my intrest even if i dont get what i want, The US would be a porblem to fight if i ever did leave, have to think about your saftey-(US offers that- the police/army)

EMANSIPATION PROCLIMATION: i would support this proclmation becsaue it finally frees slaves, allowing them to be whoever they want. This is also and advantage for the army in the case that they can now recruit more man power to fight the very people who still support slavery the confederates.

__I SEE/IT MEANS__ 2 guys, wearing matching clothes, both somking cigars, in a frame, gold plated

important guys to be in a picture frame, must be someone important in the civil war, look like good friends

simlarities/differences: similar: all guys, buttoned shirts, in same frames, have some sort of hats

differances: uniforems are different, hats are differnt mean ing they might be apart of different sides of the war.

__GENERAL LEE-BIOGRAPHY THING__ I would return to Massachusetts and defend it against the army. If the army is forcing any state to do something they don't want to its wrong according to the constitution the army was made to protect the people. Making the people go against there will is bad there are no loop holes. I wont just go to a certain side because they offer better pay i choose a side based on my knowledge of right and wrong.

reflection: NO, there isn't any way to avoid. You must either be on the confederate or union side of the war. Due to harassment,pear pressure and threats of other people.

= Civil War Themes =

4) Fellow Americans or Traitors ... or both?
The union used the anaconda plan to fight against the confederate army, the anaconda plan would allow the union to surround the confederates with waves on controled attacks. The confederates on the other hand used a more defenisve plan, attacking when the time was right, they used this becasue if they went head on against the union they would surley lose due to the unions wepons and greater infentary. the anaconda plan will turn the tide in the war playing defense wont always help you win.

i support the faster ships and the iron clads for transport purposes only not for killing. I oppose the better wepons like the more accurate muskets. The gatling gun allowed a single person to take out hundreds of men, turning the tide of most battles.

The confederates was deffinatly winning by then, their use of faster stronger ships to win the sea battles and the accurate muskets and more man power to win the ground battle will most likley lead to thier victory. They had more experiacen in there anrmy scince the union used voulentears to fight so they were un trained. robert e lee got the idea of a defensive war from his grandfather. the union has to force confeds to rejoin, while the confeds are an indepent country so they dont have to do anything.

i would probably recruit more expericanced soldiers and generals.

gettysburg: 3 days of carenge

1. south had the advantage, they had overpowered the north due to the lack of men they had 2. both armys had regrouped the night before and where now both ready to fight once again 3.the fact that the union had brought out there best men instead of the voulentears the used before, lee set up a full out attack 4. his crrikket plan did not work and didnt break through the union lines and with the amount of alltierly left he could not continue

mark up

1. she was a doctor for wounded soldiers 2.the cold, hungery, tirsome nights waiting for battle to start 3.in joy..not that they won but the wars over 4.

reading b- story of edward porter alexandar. switched to the confederate army cvasue georgia succeeded and he was a gunner in gettysburg.

FLAWS in the EP - border states-but there in the north so slaves in the noirth?-- abe declared martial law - if confeds atually gave up slavery
 * Comments, Questions, Connections, Inferences, predictions || Battle/Date || Victor || Significance of Battle ||
 * Why is the battle named the first battle of Bull Run? Is it because that was when Beauregard told the line of foot soldiers to charge which caused the Union to turn into a stampede and that lead to the idea? || 1st Bull Run || Confederates || It was an indication that this would be a long and bloody war. It was the first major land battle of the Civil War. ||
 * I think the Union will win the Civil War even though they don’t seem to be doing so good right now because this battle gave them an opportunity to control the Mississippi River. I’m sure they’ll win if they battle it out right from this point on because this is a good chance to be the Confederates as they achieve their ‘western goal’. || Shiloh || No one (Lincoln said Union won) || It moved the Union closer to its "western goal" of gaining control of the Mississippi River and made people realize it would be a long bloody war. ||
 * I think McClellan is annoying during this battle because he kept doing nothing when Lincoln gave him explicit orders. When you’re the commander of an army, you don’t just stand there and do nothing. You have to take action against the other side when your president tells you to do so. || 2nd Bull Run || Confederates || It was a very important victory for the South. In fact, it was the most decisive battle in the Northern Virginia campaign for the Confederates. ||
 * I think Lincoln shouldn’t have used the battle as a Union victory because people could be very upset or lose trust in him if he lied to the country about who won to drive the Emancipation Proclamation forward. || Antietam || Union || Lincoln used the battle as a Union victory, although it was an overall tie, to put in motion the Emancipation Proclamation. ||
 * I think Ambrose Burnside shouldn’t have charged into Lee’s army like that because it was the main reason why it costs the Union this battle. By doing so, he was falling into Lee’s trap. I think he should’ve at least waited a bit because something else might’ve happened and he wouldn’t have lost all his soldiers that easily. || Fredricksburg || Confederates || It ended the campaign against the Confederate Capitol of Richmond. ||

summary of EP- freed slaves in the rebelling states, lincon also knew that south want to keep there slaves and that they would make a fuss and delare the war about slavery which the brits dont like. so the south doesnt have any help from brits now.
