6 nov 1860 anni - The Election of 1860
Descrizione:
Through the majority of electoral votes, Abraham Lincoln won the Presidential election in 1860 in which he ran against the Democratic party. The Northern states favored Lincoln for his Republican views, which the South despised. Following the election, Southern states believed there would be a lack of support for Southern culture and society; thus, they seceded from the Union. The Election of 1860 is significant because it established the division between North and South, which would lead to the commencement of the Civil War.
