It’s not really a debate over why the Civil War started. Slavery was the main issue in the mid 1850s. And yea, the South seceded over states rights…their rights to own slaves.
Yeah and secession wasn’t the proximate cause of the war. There are many causes but not all are proximate causes. One could say that the creation of man or Adam and Eve, the Norman conquest of England, the English civil war, the founding of Virginia, the development of the institution of slavery, are the causes of the civil war because they led up to it and without which it would not have occurred. secession was indeed a cause because it led to the war but it was not the proximate cause because the war was not necessary just due to the secession. Secession could have been followed by mutual recognition between USA and CSA had another U.S. President been in power
State rights were the rights to leave the union but yeah pretty much everything was slavery. The confederates are correct about state rights, just not everything else.
@@chrissmith3587 "state rights for slavery." Does not exist. State rights are litterally the rights of the state. Yes, they did only care about slavery they use the term " State rights." As an excuse. Hense why I said they were right about it, not that its what they revolve around
Two mistakes here: Missouri was never officially a part of the Confederacy. The Missouri State Guard was pro-Confederate, but the state government itself never actually formally succeeded from the Union. Also, the Arizona Territory was re-annexed by the New Mexico Territory in 1863, not 1862.
Fun fact: Tennessee was split over the issue of session and slavery, with the west being fiercely pro-secession and anti-abolitionist, the east being ardently pro-union and anti-slavery, and middle Tennessee was caught in the middle. Tennessee initially held a referendum on secession in 1860, which was rejected by a 51% majority. However after the Battle of Fort Sumter, the Tennessee legislature, dominated by western plantation owners, held a second referendum, which was approved by around 80% of the electorate (mostly white men), making it the last state to secede and join the Confederacy. Despite this, East Tennessee was still pro-union, and attempted to split from the state to become its own (like West Virginia), but this was rejected and immediately crushed by the Confederacy (a bit ironic considering that they wanted to secede from the union), and the union was too far away to help them. Despite this, East Tennesseans engaged in guerrilla warfare against the confederates (notably a series of bridge burnings in 1861), even when East Tennessee was maintaind by the Confederacy throughout the war and the rest of the state was captured by the union. And when the war ended, Tennessee was actually the first state readmitted into the union (after abolishing slavery and ratifying the 13th amendment, likely due to more political influence by the east), in 1866, one year after the war ended. Because of this, Tennessee was the only confederate state that avoided military rule after the war.
This actually taught me some new things! I actually didn’t know Lincoln’s assassination occurred before the end of the war. Lee’s surrender being seen as the end of the war always kinda tripped me up. I also had no idea Brownsville was captured as a part of the Anaconda Plan. Great video! For future reference, I’d also advise anyone against the phrasing “people of color”. It’s just the phrase “colored people” but it’s harder to say or take seriously. Neither is offensive, but the phrase is just nonsensical and black Americans don’t swear by it as much as “black” or “colored”, especially once you leave wealthier colleges and such
The cause of the conflict being slavery is not “debated” by any serious scholars of the war. There’s only a very fringe group of hacks that claim otherwise.
This is very well made, though it’s a shame that you weren’t able to show any of the smaller rebellions or guerillas, but I intend on doing that myself
Not really a mistake per se, but at 2:23 Jacksonville falls into the hands of the Union and yet is not listed in the events section, depsite being a relatively important supply point of cattle for the Confederate Army during the war. Also, neither Lincoln's introduction of the first federal income tax(with the signing of Reveune Act of 1861) or his supenesion of Habeus Corpus (with the Habeus Corpus Supenesion Act of 1863) I liked the video nonetheless, esepically with the use of the chapter system to display the various campaigns of the war, that's a nice touch.
THANK YOU for inclufing the Indian Nations in this. And also showing they were the final bastion of the Confederacy to surrender. General Stand Waite of the Cherokee Nation was the last Confederate General to surrender. Anyone who says Oklahoma wasnt involved is wrong. They werent a state, but the are and its people were heavily affected and still held deep southern roots from their time before the indian removal act.
Wether you Republican or democrat me. Wether your conservative or liberal. Wether your pro union or pro state. Us Americans shall never let this happen again. We are not the Republican states of America or the democrat states of America, we are the UNITED states of America.❤
I remember when I was a Communist...man life was so much simpler then. Having a recess and a an apple juicebox with no perception of how money works...good times
Quite the opposite. Lincoln didn't want to chase Confederate forces or penetrate Virginia just across the river from WDC for ages, and he didn't plan on executing Confederate leaders.
In principle, I support secession as a matter of national self-determination. It was and is the right of the people of a state to leave the union. But this event specifically was about so much more than secession, and the reasons for the southern states' leaving was the preservation of the most abominable institution to ever exist among humans. So to me it was a disastrous outcome that secession was centered in the discourse afterwards. This contributed to both the issue of black liberation being systematically ignored, and the general imperialization of the federal government in the subsequent century.

Yes, Missouri remained loyal to the Union through the Civil War. And Kentucky too.

Good video the best video
Who else is excited for the sequel?!
The issue of slavery, particularly its expansion into new territories following the Mexican war was the root cause of the Civil War.
Hey can you make a video about if Germany fought to the end mabye like a fortress Norway or Austria scenario?
