[00:05] The American Civil War, which took place from April 12, 1861, to May 26, 1865, was a conflict between the Union (the North) and the Confederacy (the South).
[00:21] The main cause of the war was the dispute over whether slavery should be allowed to expand into Western territories.
[00:41] Abraham Lincoln's victory in the 1860 presidential election, due to his opposition to slavery's expansion, led seven southern slave states to secede and form the Confederacy.
[00:59] The war began on April 12, 1861, when the Confederacy attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina.
[01:15] Led by President Jefferson Davis, the Confederacy controlled a significant portion of the US population and territory.

[01:44] The war resulted in the destruction of much of the South's infrastructure, the collapse of the Confederacy, the abolition of slavery, and the freeing of millions of enslaved Black people.
[01:52] The nation then entered the Reconstruction Era to rebuild the country, reintegrate the former Confederate states, and grant civil rights to freed slaves.
[02:12] Abraham Lincoln, the 16th US president, was known for his determination to preserve the Union and his opposition to slavery.
