How long did the civil war last?
The American Civil War started on April 12, 1861 when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina and ended with General Robert E. Lee surrendering to the Union on April 9, 1865 at Appomattox Court House in Virginia. The south (Confederates) were upset with the north (Union) in response to President Lincoln being nominated president and the Union wanting to end slavery nationwide. 625,000 people died during the 4 years of the Civil War.

The American Civil War started on April 12, 1861 and went until April 9, 1865. This is when 11 southern slave states declared their secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, also known as 'The Confederacy'. President Abraham Lincoln lead 'The Union' (north states) which in the end won and abolished slavery. Let ChaCha help you today! Bow Chicka ChaCha!

The Civil war started on April 12, 1861 and lasted for 4 years before it finally came to an end with a win for the Union on April 9, 1865. 3 reasons the war started includes: Attempts to Abolish Slavery (the North wanted it abolished, the south saw it as a right), Economic Divide Between the North and South (The industrial sector driven economy of the North was much better than the agriculture driven economy of the South) and the election of President Lincoln.
