The Union won the American Civil War.
The American Civil War was fought between the Union (also known as the North) and the Confederacy (also known as the South) from 1861 to 1865. The war was primarily fought over the issue of slavery. The South seceded from the Union after Abraham Lincoln was elected president in 1860 on a platform that opposed the expansion of slavery into new territories.
The war was long and bloody, with over 600,000 soldiers killed and millions more wounded. The Union ultimately won the war in 1865, when Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House.
