Coming back to disagreements and poilitical issues that began soon after the American Revolution. There were a number of circumstances that led the United States into a excruciating civil war. The problems between the North and the South grew more intense between the years 1800 and 1860. Although i twas not the only one, slavery was the central issue of the conflicts. There was another point of major disagreement between the two sides in the involved taxes paid on goods brought from foreign countries. It was called tariff. Southerners felt that those tarrifs were unfair toward them and were doing in purpose because they imported a broader variety of goods than Northerners.

     The Civil War was a four year armed conflict between northern and southern sections of the United States. The Civil War cost more American lives than any other war in history. There were bout 3 million people who fought in the beginning of the Civil War and about 600,000 people’s lives were lost at the end of the war. What began for many as a romantic adventure soon became a heartbreaking bitter struggle between the two parts of a divided country. This, however, was more than the industrial North fighting against the agricultural South. There were divided families with brother fighting brother. Some Northerners joined the Southern ranks and some Southerners were in the Union

The Civil War was one that would change America forever; and this was one that was fought over beliefs and one people’s lively hood rather than land or riches. Many people believe that the Civil War was fought because of the conversional issue on slavery, however there was much more to the Civil War than merely slavery. The Civil War was the first war to be fought on the grounds of the United States since the War of 1812 were they defeated the invading British. The people who fought in this war would be one that would define who they were and what it as a nation would become. The Civil War was fought from views that are different than those that were for slavery and those who were against slavery. The South wanted freedom to choose what they believed that was right and the North felt like they had to control the country from the Federalist view. At the outset of the American Civil War the South was right in its decision in seceding from the Union because of the political and financial pressures put upon them.

The Civil War and the late 1800’s brought change. Though it was a time rebuilding, despair and much loss there rose a political revolution. This political revolution derived from the Civil War and helped shape the world into what it is today. As the Civil War was fought there was a change in political parties, there were new Acts and Amendments passed at the time, and Lincoln’s assassination. With these changes the Civil War was pushed into a new direction and propelled into the future.

The rigid and confined society of the Danes also shaped the way its people think and act, but also influenced greatly on the writings. Given the fact that metaphors and kennings are common in Old English literature; the representation of “evil” is also something not to be taken on a literal level. “Edgetho had begun a bitter feud / Killing Hathlaf, a Wulfing warrior” (459-460), inter-tribal feuds, therefore, are also a destroyer of peace. Grendel takes on a form that is left uncertain; its real meaning hidden behind the metaphorical mask of a monster, is the never-ending battles between tribal armies (namely, the Danes, Geats, Frisians, and the Swedes) that had disturbed the tranquility people had longed for. It is almost a barrier of peacekeeping, hider of hope. Hence, it is represented by Grendel, a great evil hated by many, whom

Tensions grew between the North and the South causing what is known as the worse war tragedies of all time. The American Civil War was the bloodiest war in our history of the United States killing over 620,000 American soldieries. Many African Americans around 1861-1865 lost a family member or someone close to them. This war effected both sides of the nation, for both the North and the South. African Americans also were killed in this war being that they fought in it too. Slaves, southern people and northern people were effected mentally and physically after this war. The southern economy became a one crop economy because as the cotton gin was invented factories depended on the cotton during slavery. On the other hand, the northern economy was based more on industry than agriculture by ++purchasing the raw cotton and turning it into finished goods. This disagreement between the North and the South made a major difference in the economy.

The American Civil War, also known in the United States as just the Civil War, was a civil war fought from 1861 to 1865 to determine the survival of the Union or independence for the Confederacy. Among the thirty four states in 1861, seven Southern slave states declared their secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America. The Confederacy, often simply called the South, grew to include eleven states. Even though they claimed thirteen states and additional western territories, the Confederacy was never diplomatically recognized by any foreign country. The states that remained loyal and did not declare secession were known as the Union, or the North. The Civil War was a vicious competition marked by the ferocity and frequency of battle. Over four years, 237 named battles were fought, which were often characterized by their bitter saturation and high casualties. The Civil War was named one of the most “ferocious war ever fought". Although the Civil War was detrimental to the nation’s population, it was worth its economic, social, and political costs due to newly found independence of former slaves, an improved economy, and the introduction of the political rights of freedmen.

Grendel, a monster who lives at the bottom of a nearby mere, is provoked by the singing and celebrating of Hrothgar's followers. He appears at the hall late one night and kills thirty of the warriors in their sleep. For the next twelve years, the fear of Grendel's fury casts a shadow over the lives of the Danes. Hrothgar and his advisors can think of nothing to calm the monster's anger.

This research paper will investigate the historical facts regarding what transpired during the events of the Civil War versus what happened in the novel Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier. This will provide more insight and understanding of both the Civil War and the book. Because it is a story, Cold Mountain would likely have events that never occurred during the Civil War and thus only serve a more immersive function. This paper’s thesis that the novel and the specific events of the war contain facts that conflict with each other will be analyzed. The paper will compare both the history presented in the novel and the facts of the Civil War in order to provide as much insight into historical accuracy as possible. Using sources that defend the thesis will allow for a greater understanding of both the novel and what took place in reality.
