  • Union (American Civil War)

    During the American Civil War, the Union was the term used to refer to the United States of America, and specifically to the national government and the 23 free states and five border slave states that supported it. The Union was opposed by 11 southern slave states that formed the Confederate States of America, or "the Confederacy".

    All of the Union's states provided soldiers for the U.S. Army; the border areas also sent large numbers of soldiers to the Confederacy. The Border states played a major role as a supply base for the Union invasion of the Confederacy. The Northeast provided the industrial resources for a mechanized war producing large quantities of munitions and supplies, as well as financing for the war. The Midwest provided soldiers, food and horses, as well as financial support and training camps. Army hospitals were set up across the Union. Most states had Republican governors who energetically supported the war effort and suppressed anti-war subversion in 1863–64. The Democratic Party strongly supported the war in 1861 but was split by 1862 between the War Democrats and the anti-war element led by the "Copperheads". The Democrats made major electoral gains in 1862 in state elections, most notably in New York. They lost ground in 1863, especially in Ohio. In 1864 the Republicans campaigned under the Union Party banner, which attracted many War Democrats and soldiers and scored a landslide victory for Lincoln and his entire ticket.

    PLAYLIST TIME:

    The North

    by: Stars

    It's so cold in this country
    Every road home is long
    He had a map that he bought
    For the price of his soul
    He had a reason to go there
    And a warm place to stay
    And when it came time to leave
    It was never the right day
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Sleep is my friend and my rival
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    There was a girl who he married
    And he left her behind
    He couldn't picture her face now
    It was like he was blind
    Up at five in the morning
    Every breath was a stone
    It's so cold in this country
    You can never get warm
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Sleep is my friend and my rival
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Sleep is my friend and my rival
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    It's a strange disappearance
    It's a real mystery, is he asleep in the snow?
    Does he feel free?
    There's a person he once was in a place far away
    It's so cold in this country
    I told her in May
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Sleep is my friend and my rival
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Sleep is my friend and my rival
    Good luck, bad luck survivor, survivor
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
    Good luck, bad luck survivor
