But there have been several moments in US history where the Constitution has come extremely close to unraveling altogether. Nowhere was this more true than in the American Civil War.\n\nThe American system of government is a federal system of government, in which power is divided between the central government in Washington and the individual states. This system of government allows each state to maintain their own laws and regulations, while still being part of a larger union.\n\nThe relationship relies upon cooperation between the state and federal governments.

This was an amendment proposed by Pennsylvania Congressman David Wilmot, which would have outlawed the expansion of slavery into any new territories acquired by the United States. \n\nSoutherners vehemently opposed the amendment. While the Wilmot Proviso never passed, it created a rift between the North and the South that would only continue to grow. This was exacerbated by the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which rules that these two new states should have the right to vote on whether they allowed slavery. Kansas experienced such violent protests at this that it became known as ‘Bleeding Kansas’.\n\nThe Compromise of 1850 was an attempt by congress to appease both sides of the debate, but it only created further tension. The primary reason for this was the inclusion of the Fugitive Slave Act in the compromise. This made it a legal obligation for any US citizen to return runaway slaves if they encountered them.

When battles did erupt, the cacophony of musket fire, the acrid scent of gunpowder, and the chilling sights of casualties dominated the scene.\n\nMost soldiers carried single-shot muskets, with rifled muskets being less common. These weapons, with their slower reload times, sometimes led to situations where soldiers had to engage in hand-to-hand combat, especially if ammunition ran low.\n\n ![Graph](image://58a6ad23-77b6-40b7-b349-7d5c180a8e4b \"The Battle of Cold Harbor\")\n\nBeyond the physical demands of marching and the sporadic violence, soldiers grappled with the psychological burdens of the war.

This practice was largely unprecedented in American history; the United States had always relied on volunteers to fight its wars. But the Civil War was different: the scale and ferocity of the conflict demanded more soldiers than volunteer enlistment could reasonably provide. So both the Union and the Confederacy resorted to conscription, which they saw as a necessary evil.\n\nConscription in the Union was generally more organized and less controversial than in the Confederacy. The Union instituted a draft in 1863, which required all able-bodied men between the ages of 20 and 45 to enlist if called upon. However, there were a few ways to avoid the draft, such as paying a substitute to serve in your place or paying a \"commutation\" fee of $300. \n\nIn the Confederacy, conscription was enacted earlier, in 1862, and was far less flexible. All white men between the ages of 18 and 35 were required to serve, and substitutes were not allowed. This led to widespread resentment, with many Southerners seeing conscription as an infringement on their rights. Despite these issues, however, the draft was crucial for both sides in sustaining their armies throughout the long and bloody conflict.","586416ef-2ee6-4e7c-b8d3-8f5281243254",[803],{"id":804,"data":805,"type":51,"version":25,"maxContentLevel":21},"4e84b374-825e-4fef-9925-5271808ed0bb",{"type":51,"reviewType":21,"spacingBehaviour":25,"multiChoiceQuestion":806,"multiChoiceCorrect":808,"multiChoiceIncorrect":810},[807],"When was conscription enacted in the Confederacy?",[809],"1862",[811,812,813],"1863","1861","1864",{"id":815,"data":816,"type":25,"maxContentLevel":21,"version":25,"reviews":820},"ce85eb4b-6455-4b8a-afe0-7cb8c0bb0d4b",{"type":25,"title":817,"markdownContent":818,"audioMediaId":819},"Prisoners of war","The experiences of Civil War soldiers in enemy captivity were often very disturbing.

The commander of the camp, Captain Henry Wirz, was executed for war crimes in 1865.\n\nOn the other side of the conflict, Union forces also created camps for Confederate prisoners. Camp Douglas in Chicago was one of the largest and longest-running Union POW camps, housing around 30,000 Confederate soldiers over the course of the war. \n\nLike Andersonville, Camp Douglas was also infamous for its brutal conditions.

Prior to the war, the states had more autonomy and the federal government had limited power. After the war, the federal government had much more power and the states had less autonomy. This was due to the passage of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments, which gave the federal government the power to enforce civil rights and liberties and to protect the rights of former slaves.\n\nThe war also led to the establishment of the Reconstruction Acts, which allowed the federal government to intervene in the affairs of the states. This allowed the federal government to ensure that the rights of former slaves were being respected and that the states were following the laws of the United States. This shift in power from the states to the federal government has continued to shape the United States today, as the federal government has the power to intervene in the affairs of the states when necessary.","486650a1-1d52-4ddb-85ee-258408450eff",[1699],{"id":1700,"data":1701,"type":51,"version":25,"maxContentLevel":21},"493c3263-39b9-483f-a6ef-13f5c99cd41a",{"type":51,"reviewType":66,"spacingBehaviour":25,"clozeQuestion":1702,"clozeWords":1704},[1703],"The American Civil War had a lasting impact on the relationship between the federal government and the states.",[1705],"federal government",{"left":4,"top":4,"width":1707,"height":1707,"rotate":4,"vFlip":6,"hFlip":6,"body":1708},24,"\u003Cpath fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"2\" d=\"m9 18l6-6l-6-6\"/>",{"left":4,"top":4,"width":1707,"height":1707,"rotate":4,"vFlip":6,"hFlip":6,"body":1710},"\u003Cg fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" stroke-width=\"2\">\u003Cpath d=\"M12.586 2.586A2 2 0 0 0 11.172 2H4a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v7.172a2 2 0 0 0 .586 1.414l8.704 8.704a2.426 2.426 0 0 0 3.42 0l6.58-6.58a2.426 2.426 0 0 0 0-3.42z\"/>\u003Ccircle cx=\"7.5\" cy=\"7.5\" r=\".5\" fill=\"currentColor\"/>\u003C/g>",1778228385011]
