Did the South have the right to secede from the Union? In at least three sentences, explain why or why not. As the war’s significant battles went on, who do you think had the advantage – North or South? In at least three sentences explain why.

I think the South did not have the right to leave a united Union, and declare war on their former country. They turned into enemies, but before they were just fine. The South should have just give up the slaves.

As the wars went on, I think the North had the advantage due to their tactics. They split their armies and bombarded two different areas at a time. The North also set up camps in forests, and in some cases, it was hard for the South to find.

Hope this answer helps!
