During the American Civil War, the “United States” were divided <\/em>into the “Union” and “Conderate” states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Union States or “States of the Union” inlcuded:
Maine, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, California, Nevada, and Oregon <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These were the states that supported President Abraham’s Lincoln movement to free the African slaves held by slave owners in the south or “confederate” states. The Union States were mostly northern states. So the United States was then bitterly divided into “North” and “South” states. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Northern states were more progressive because they lived by more intelligent financial policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, rulers of the southern states believed in oppression and slave labor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The northern and southern United States waged a bitter war between the years 1861 to 1865 to free (or keep) the slaves which were brought from Africa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The northern states, commanded by President Abraham Lincoln, emerged victorious in the war, resulting in the abolition of slavery in the United States. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The war to end slavery in the United States is known as the American Civil War and cost the lives of approximately 1 million Americans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
