How did the goals of the North and the South differ in the civil war?
To begin with the north wanted to end slavery and the south wanted to keep it in addition Lincoln wanted to reunite the states the south really didn’t care about that they just wanted to run the show there way. There were also more democratic in the south and Lincoln was a republican therefore none of the southern states voted for he they wanted the country to be more of a democracy.
If I lived in 1861 would you have said the north of the south would win? Why?
At the start of the war I think I would have chosen the south to win this is because they were more prepared at the start of the war and they knew what they wanted and they were going to fight for it. In addition they did have more trained higher ranking soldiers but the north had 3x the population and they formed a huge militia army . That is one of the main causes for the north winning the civil war.
