The American Civil War

So people, why do you think the civil war started? What was it about and why? Why did it end? I know this myself, but I have heard so many people not get this right that I had to ask on the forums. EDIT: include if you are American in your post. If you prefer not to then that's ok.

    • The Republican Party held majority presences in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, which meant that when Lincoln was elected, the northern states(which were typically Republican) could impose on the South whatever the hell they wanted. South is annoyed at this because the North is pushing to stop the [b]expansion[/b] of slavery westward. South gets tired of the North's shit, says "fuq dis im outee 5000" and seven states had seceded between the time Lincoln won the election and his inauguration.
