https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdFCa_7HtbBOINg7aZ419ig/join
It was April of 1862, and the war was just about to enter its second year. The beginning of that year had been a bleak one for the Confederacy.
In February, Fort Henry, Roanoke Island, North Carolina, and Fort Donelson all fell. Now there were invasion routes into "The Old North State," the interior of Tennessee, and the very heartland of the Confederacy.
In the first week of March, Missouri was for all practical purposes lost to the Confederacy thanks to Union victory at Pea Ridge. In the east, more cause for southern concern. The ironclad USS Monitor had revolutionized Naval warfare, and neutralized the Confederacy's CSS Virginia, and George B. McClella...

The American Civil War: 1861 - 1865 | Documentary
The United States of America was born out of the yearning of the many people who had traveled there from the old world of Europe to be free of the imperial powers that had dominated them for centuries. To have democracy, liberty, justice for all and to take command of their own destiny.
The birth of the American nation was a painful one, first by having to fight against the forces of the British and then against the indigenous people of North America, within and from outside of the new borders they had declared. In between the many conflicts, the new nation had to establish its own laws, political system and even its own culture none of which developed overnight.
Obviously, there would not always be a consensus. Over the century after 1776 when the United States of America was born, wh...

U.S Grant - Appomattox Lee surrender - History
During the civil war, the South had Robert E. Lee leading its armies right from the very beginning. However, President Lincoln did not find a general who could succeed for the North until he found Ulysses S. Grant. Lincoln tried and rejected six generals before he found US Grant. Although these generals possessed leadership skills and military know-how, most had no skill at winning battles. Grant was a quiet, average, humble 39-year-old from West Point whose persistence and strength of character enabled him to get the job done.
In the Eastern Theatre of War, the union were continually on the losing side and made little progress. Only U.S Grant is making significant progress and delivering major victories in the Western Theatre. In 1864, Lincoln finally finds U.S Grant and congress gives ...

In February, Fort Henry, Roanoke Island, North Carolina, and Fort Donelson all fell. Now there were invasion routes into "The Old North State," the interior of Tennessee, and the very heartland of the Confederacy.
In the first week of March, Missouri was for all practical purposes lost to the Confederacy thanks to Union victory at Pea Ridge. In the east, more cause for southern concern. The ironclad USS Monitor had revolutionized Naval warfare, and neutralized the Confederacy's CSS Virginia, and George B. McClellan finally stirred from his slows to land 121,000 men on the Virginia peninsula with its sights on Richmond.
Though there had been all these military events, there were still some, North and South, who believed that particularly if the southern capital fell, the conflict would soon end. In fact a year earlier, A.W. Venable of Granville County, North Carolina declared that he would wipe of every drop of blood shed in the war with "this handkerchief of mine." Naive words.
In his most vivid and terrible nightmares, he never dreamed of two days like April 6th and 7th, 1862. Neither had an entire nation. Two horrific days that churned and burned near a river landing and a little Methodist church built for the Prince Of Peace. Two bloody days that served as a national wake-up call; a call that announced the sobering reality of how terrible civil war would truly be.
This is the story of those two days. This is the story of the Battle of Shiloh.

The United States of America was born out of the yearning of the many people who had traveled there from the old world of Europe to be free of the imperial powers that had dominated them for centuries. To have democracy, liberty, justice for all and to take command of their own destiny.
The birth of the American nation was a painful one, first by having to fight against the forces of the British and then against the indigenous people of North America, within and from outside of the new borders they had declared. In between the many conflicts, the new nation had to establish its own laws, political system and even its own culture none of which developed overnight.
Obviously, there would not always be a consensus. Over the century after 1776 when the United States of America was born, while growing under a political union of the states that it was composed of, it also saw the widening of a cultural divide between the industrious northern states and the agricultural southern states. Perhaps more than anything else, the two sides of this divide found themselves at odds over the question of slavery.
The ethics of owning a person as property became a legal battle between those in support of the practice and those opposed in American courts and halls of power. Eventually, the dispute of course became a real battlefield. More Americans died in the American Civil War that raged on the North American continent between 1861 and 1865 than in any other war in which Americans have fought throughout its history.
And while the battles have long ended, the ramifications of the civil war continue to be felt to this very day in America over issues such as culture and of course race. So, let us delve into the history of this dark chapter of American history.

In 1864, Lincoln finally finds U.S Grant and congress gives him the rank of lieutenant General (3 Star) last held by George Washington himself. The war will end quickly in a year after U.S Grant's appointment, as the General of all Union armies.

This dramatized documetary film is an overview of the American Civil War (1861-1865), one of the most important event in the history of the United States. It changed the entire fate of the nation, and created the America we know today.
Historical Background:
In the 1860 presidential election, Republicans, led by
Abraham Lincoln, supported banning slavery in all the U.S. territories, something the Southern states viewed as a violation of their constitutional rights and as being part of a plan to eventually abolish slavery. The Republican Party, dominant in the North, secured a majority of the electoral votes, and Lincoln was elected the first Republican president, but before his inauguration, seven Southern states (
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas) with cotton-based economies individually declared their secession from the United States of America and formed the Confederate States of America.
The Confederacy, often simply called the South, grew to include eleven states, and although they claimed thirteen states and additional western territories, the Confederacy was never diplomatically recognized by any foreign country. The states that remained loyal and did not declare secession were known as the Union or the North. The American Civil War was fought from 1861 to 1865 to determine the survival of the Union or independence for the Confederacy.
After four years of struggle, the Confederacy collapsed and slavery was abolished, beginning Reconstruction and the process of restoring national unity and guaranteeing civil rights to the freed slaves.
