How did the Civil War effect America’s Future?

• The Civil War made a great impact on our world today. The reason that I think this because without the Civil War African Americans would not have the freedom that we do today. Without the Union winning there would most likely be more and more battle similar to the Civil War until slavery was ended.

The End of The War• The ending of the war was because of the Surrender

of General Robert E. Lee on April 9th at 11:50 am.• It happened after the battle of Appomattox, but after

the surrender there were still minor battles going on around the country.

• The final surrender of the Confederate troops was on June 23, 1865.

The terms on General Robert E. Lee’s Surrender was that Major artillery would be turned over.

Side arms, horses, and mules would remain.No imprisonment for treason.
