	Causes of the Civil War (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		However, given the presence of slavery in both Northern and Southern states, the issue of the State's right to govern itself and the unfair representation in the Houses of Congress as a result of these legislations is the central core of the South's attempt to form an independent Nation.
		Northerners were basically against fighting the War for the cause of slavery expansion (simply because it was not a cause that directly involved them), and thus they were against any results of the War that would indicate such a cause.
		At the conclusion of the Mexican War, President James Knox Polk requested from Congress the sum of $2 million in order to indemnify the Mexican government for territory annexed by the U.S. The Wilmot Proviso moved to exclude slavery from the acquired territory and was approved by the House on Aug. 8, 1846.

	Naming the American Civil War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Civil War is the most common term for the conflict; it has been used by the overwhelming majority of reference books, scholarly journals, dictionaries, encyclopedias, popular histories, and mass media in the United States since the early 20th century.
		After the war, the memoirs of former Confederate officials and veterans (Joseph E. Johnston, Raphael Semmes, and especially Alexander Stephens) commonly used the term "War Between the States." In 1898, the United Confederate Veterans formally endorsed the name.
		Civil War armies were also named in a manner reminiscent of the battlefields: Northern armies were frequently named for major rivers (Army of the Potomac, Army of the Tennessee, Army of the Mississippi), Southern armies for states or geographic regions (Army of Northern Virginia, Army of Tennessee, Army of Mississippi).

		At the time of the Civil War, or as it is referred to in the South: "The War of Southern Independence", The War Between The States", or "The War of Northern Aggression", the banjo and fiddle were the most popular instruments of both player and listener.

		The most famous banjo player of the war was Sam Sweeney who was an orderly for General J.E.B. Stuart, commander of the cavalry in the Army of Northern Virginia.

	A New Look at the "Civil War"
		It is a fascinating and somewhat disturbing revisionist history, for it posits the Civil War as but a continuation of the tariff controversy from 1828, ignoring the issues of slavery and the admission of new non-slave states from the territories as reasons for the South's secession and the resultant conflict.
		You are not satisfied that we of the South are almost reduced to the condition of overseers of northern capitalists.
		The war is, further, not for any principle, does not touch the question of slavery, and in fact turns on the Northern lust for sovereignty." While historians may differ, Adams makes a convincing case.

	Taking America Back - by Al Benson Jr. - Sierra Times.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The government school system in the North in the 1830s and then in the South after the War of Northern Aggression, as a major component of "reconstruction" has played a major role in the destruction of the true American culture that was present at this country's beginning.
		The truth is that the old American Republic the founders bequeathed to us died with the advent of the Lincoln administration in 1861 and with the later "reconstruction" first of the South, and, as that seemed to prove successful, then the rest of the country.
		The conclusion of the War of Northern Aggression showed that we were no longer a nation of sovereign states that delegated certain specified powers to the federal government while retaining the rest.

	Why the Civil War (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The reason why we don't face the specter of another Civil War is because today's Americans don't have yesteryear's spirit of liberty and constitutional respect and political statesmanship is in short supply.
		Actually, the war of 1861 was not a civil war.
		A precursor for a War Between the States came in 1832 when South Carolina called a convention to nullify tariff acts of 1828 and 1832, referred to as the "Tariffs of Abominations." A compromise lowering the tariff was reached averting secession and possibly war.

	How & Why Abe Started the War
		Basically, the Northern capitalists wanted the U.S. government to tax (only) the South deeply, to finance the industrialization of the North, and the necessary transportation-net to support that.
		Now Lincoln had his excuse for a war (assuming that he continued to lie his head off about it -- which he did); but there was no reason for him to believe that Congress would declare war against the South on his say-so.
		So instead of calling Congress into emergency session and asking them to declare war (which was their prerogative, and not Lincoln's), Lincoln simply declared war himself -- by calling the C.S.A.'s defense of its sovereignty in Charleston Harbor an "insurrection" against the U.S. government.

	The First Shot of the Civil War \| MetaFilter
		July 26, 2005 12:24 AM The First Shot of the Civil War was fired on January 9, 1861, when George Edward Haynesworth, a cadet at The Citadel, fired a handgun at the Star of the West (1861 engraving), which was attempting to reinforce Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor (1861 map, Google map).
		President Buchanan then "reverted to a policy of inactivity that continued until he left office." Cadet Haynsworth was in the last Civil War battle east of the Mississippi and claimed to have also fired the last shot in the war.
		The point of the term "War of Northern aggression" is to point out the fact that it was the North that was forcibly trying to unify the country rather than the South that trying to forcibly tear it apart.
