Notes: APPLY: Analogy: Slavery is like taxes from England on the colonies because it is a main supporting reason for a war. Propoganda: Southern States, Seperated States Bloom's Questions: **Relate to the north's feelings about the south**. My sisters have no chores, I do. They get to sit and watch tv as I'm in the kitchen every night doing the dishes by myself. My younger sister is almost 11. I think she's old enough to do a chore. I feel fed up about how they get to live it so good and get money handed to them from doing nothing and I have to earn my money. I bet the north was fed up with the southern plantation owners lived the good life and had money handed to them for cotton that they didn't even do any effort towards and the people in the north all have to work for a living.
 * John Brown's Raid began when he and his men took over the arsenal in Harpers Ferry, Virginia, in hopes of starting a salve rebellion
 * Constitutional Union Party recognized "no political principles other that the Constitiution of the country, the Union of the states and the enforcement of the laws."
 * Election of 1860 made the South reliezed they were losing its national political power
 * Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas formed the Confederate States of America.
 * Jefferson Davis was first president of CSA
 * Compare the election of 1860 to Great Britain's taxes and acts on the colonies. ** They were both the last straw. In 1860 Lincoln was going to slowly stop salvery and eliminate it. The south was losing their voice in government and they would not stand for it. Great Britains silly and unnessasary taxes and acts were the last straw for the colonies. They were fed up with them not having a voice in Britain.
