A. April 3rd, 1865, the Union captured the Confederate capitol of Richmond, VA. This was sign that the end of the war was near. The Confederate army made the bad choice to flee the capital on the evening of April 2nd. The next morning, Union troops invaded. The Union was ecstatic and there were even accounts of the women "dancing, hugging, and kissing" but the Confederate army had a fear of dread and knew it was only time before their run was over.

b. This was the largest Civil War battle fought in the Civil War AND in America. There were about 80,000 Union soldiers and 75,000 Confederate soldiers. The Confederate won this battle, but due to his relentless fighting over several days, Lee's army failed. The Union opened fire on Confederate troops from all sides. This caused a lot of casualties on the Confederate side (less than half the Confederate soldiers survived).

c. The Battle of Antietam was a battle fought 9-17-1862. This battle is important because this was the first battle in the Civil War fought on American soil and also the first place where Robert E. Lee and George McClellan faced off. Two other important events that makes this battle stand out is this gave Abraham Lincoln the facts he needed to write the Emancipation Proclamation AND also because it was the bloodiest battle fought with over 22,000 lives lost. The Union outnumbering the Confederate meant nothing because the Confederate won, but the Union was able to stop the advancement of the Confederate army to the North.

d. July 21, 1861, armies of both sides fought in Virginia. This was the first major land battle of the Civil War. 35,000 Union army met 20,000 Confederate armies. The Confederate won and this gave the south a surge of confidence. This cause the North be shocked, because this proved that this was gonna be long war.

I researched and typed all of this, lol. Good luck

Background information: this is an article by will irvin, a correspondent for the new york tribune. irvin wrote this piece in april 1915, while reporting from the western front. at the time that irvin wrote this piece, the united states had declared neutrality in the war. boulogne, april 25. – the gaseous vapor which the germans used against the french divisions near ypres last thursday, contrary to the rules of the hague convention, introduces a new element into warfare. the attack of last thursday evening was preceded by the rising of a cloud of vapor, greenish gray and iridescent. that vapor settled to the ground like a swamp mist and drifted toward the french trenches on a brisk wind. its effect on the french was a violent nausea and faintness, followed by an utter collapse. it is believed that the germans, who charged in behind the vapor, met no resistance at all, the french at their front being virtually paralyzed. the effect of the noxious trench gas seems to be slow in wearing away. the men come out of their nausea in a state of utter collapse. some of the rescued have already died from the after effects. how many of the men left unconscious in the trenches when the french broke died from the fumes it is impossible to say, since those trenches were at once occupied by the germans. –will irvin, 1915 what were the effects of the poison gas, according to the reporter? a.) the french were victorious over the germans. b.) soldiers suffered from nausea and began to pass out, while some even died. c.) there were few effects, and the battle continued. d.) the gas was yellow and caused the men’s skin to blister.
