| (3rd Flag of the Confederacy) | (Confederate Seal) |
The United States ("Union") refused to recognize the Confederacy or negotiate with it for the independence of its constituent states. The American Civil War broke out when Confederate President Jefferson Davis ordered an assault on an American fortress in Charleston, South Carolina, in April 1861. All but two major battles took place in Confederate territory, as the South was slowly overwhelmed by the much larger Union, and choked by a naval blockade. When Robert E. Lee and the other Confederate generals surrendered their armies in the spring of 1865, the Confederacy collapsed, the slaves were freed, and a difficult process of Reconstruction re-united the nation.
