The Confederacy, led by President Jefferson Davis, wanted to form their own country. They had strong leaders but fewer people and factories. Key events changed the course of the war. In 1865, the Union won, bringing the nation back together and working towards fairness for all. Credits - Riskthe3rd, Jalen_HurtsJr
