Chapter 12- Road to the Civil War Overview- A growing number of people began to demand that slavery be ended and worked to help enslaved
African Americans escape slavery. The issue of slavery in the western territories became hotly debated. A compromise settled it in 1829 and again in
1850 when California applied for statehood. A new law to organize the territories of Kansas and Nebraska led to violence over the slavery issue.
Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election in 1860. Soon after, seven Southern states left the Union, and when Southern forces attacked a Union
fort, the Civil War began.

12.2: Slavery and the West- (pgs 535- 542)
The Missouri Compromise resolved the issue
of slave states. The Kentucky Resolution
advanced the doctrine of nullification. The issue
of slavery in new territories was at the forefront.
Henry Clay’s plan resulted in the Compromise
of 1850.
12.3: A Nation Dividing- (pgs 543- 547) The
Kansas-Nebraska Act resulted from another
dispute over slavery. Violence erupted as the
proslavery Kansas legislature was elected.
12.4: Challenges to Slavery –(pgs 548- 553)
The Supreme Court’s decision in the Dred Scott
case resulted in even more division in the
country. The Lincoln-Douglas debates helped
Lincoln emerge as a leader.
12.5: Secession and War- (pgs 554- 559) A
split occurred in the Democratic Party, allowing
Lincoln to win the election of 1860. South
Carolina led other southern states in seceding
from the Union. The Civil War began when Fort
Sumter was attacked.

Chapter 13- The Civil War Overview- Soldiers in the Civil War came from every region and each side expected an early victory. The first battle
showed that the war would be a long and difficult one. The North blockaded the South’s coast, hoping to cut off supplies. The Union won several early
victories in the West but had difficulty in the East. In 1863, Lincoln changed the goals of the war by declaring that all slaves in the South would be free.
African Americans contributed to the war effort in many different ways, as did women. The Battle of Gettysburg in 1863 turned the war in the Union’s
favor, though fighting continued for nearly two more years. Finally, in 1865, the Confederate armies were forced to surrender.

83. Results of the War
Chapter 14- Reconstruction Overview- After Lincoln was assassinated; Andrew Johnson became president and clashed with congress over policies
in the South. Northerners passed new laws aimed at punishing whites and ensuring the rights of African Americans. African Americans had to weather
violence, but began to take part in the voting process, and some won political offices. Meanwhile, the South worked to rebuild the damaged economy.
Democrats committed to ending Reconstruction gained control of state governments in the South, and Northerners lost interest in Reconstruction. A
disputed presidential election in 1876 led the federal government to withdraw the last troops form the South and end Reconstruction.
Learning Targets – Basic, essential information
14.1: Reconstruction Plans- (pgs 624- 628)
Differences over how Reconstruction after the
Civil War should be carried out divided the
government. After Abraham Lincoln was
assassinated, Johnson became president and
announced his plan of “Restoration.”
14.2: Radicals in Control- (pgs 629- 634) When
Northerners realized that African Americans in
the South were still being mistreated Congress
worked to find a solution. Radical Republicans
were able to put their version of Reconstruction
into action.
14.3: The South During Reconstruction- (pgs
635- 639) Violence against African Americans
and their white supporters took place during
Reconstruction. After the Civil War, the South
had to rebuild not only its farms and roads, but
its social and political structures as well.
14.4: Change in the South- (pgs 640-649)
Democrats steadily regained control of Southern
governments as support for Radical
Reconstruction policies decreased. When
Reconstruction ended, many changes took place
in the South including a political shift and growth
of industry. As Reconstruction ended, true
freedom for African Americans became a distant
dream.
