- The day Abraham Lincoln was elected President (and before he assumed office) South Carolina seceded from the Union. Before Lincoln even swore his oath of office, 7 states had seceded with 4 more to follow shortly. However, war did not become inevetiable until after the South attacked and captured Fort Sumter (off the coast of S. Carolina).

Working in groups of 3-4, you will assume the roles of the President and cabinet, and will compare your solutions to those used by Lincoln.
