The Civil war, which was between different states of the United States, lasted 4 years. The Belligerents were the Union ( United States of America) and the Confederacy( Confederate States of America). In the civil war there were a lot of battles, but there was one which was particularly cruel: the battle of Antietam. This was the bloodiest single-day battle in American history with about 23000 casualties. Another important thing was the famous speech of Abraham Lincoln at November 19 1863. He gave this speech in front of the new cemetery for the fallen soldiers from the Battle of Gettysburg.
