American Civil War

Guerre civile (1861-1865) au cours de laquelle s'affrontèrent les États du Nord des États-Unis, partisans de l'abolition de l'esclavage, et ceux du Sud, dont l'économie reposait sur l'exploitation d'une main d'œuvre d'esclaves noirs. Elle éclata après l'élection à la présidence des États-Unis de Lincoln, dont la politique anti-esclavagiste incita les onze États du Sud à quitter l'Union pour former une Confédération autonome. Supérieurs en nombre et soutenus par une industrie puissante, les nordistes finirent par emporter la victoire. → Mason–Dixon Line
