What did the south rename themselves after they broke away from the union?
what did the south rename them selves after they broke away from the union
South Carolina seceded from the union?
There were several factors, the main one being slavery. Abraham Lincoln was recently elected president, and South Carolina (a slave state) believed him to be an abolitionist (someone who wants to eliminate slavery). Their agrarian economy heavily relied on slave labor, so they believed the North would eventually economically dominate the South with Lincoln as president. So they seceded, and the rest of the South followed suit.
Who was in charge of the north and south during the civil war?
There were many different Generals in the Civil War, but Lincoln hired all of the generals for the North who was the Union and the South who was the Confederates was mostly general Robert E. Lee. Douglas was the president of the South since the south wanted to break away from the union.
The first state that broke away from the rest of the country?
