In speaking about the US Civil War, many reasons have been claimed to blame either the North or the South for the start of the US Civil War. Since it takes two sides to be in armed conflict with each other, then both the leaders on each side can be blamed. Even US President Lincoln in his 1864 Inaugural Address, blamed each side for the war.

Leaders from the North and the South failed to reach a compromise to avoid having a civil war. Within that line of thinking, it can be said that America's greatest failure was due to the fact the time honored US way to solve internal problems was compromises. This did not happen as both sides were short sighted.
