==Backround Information : From the very beginning when the colonist came to this land,the south supported slavery, everyday more people are brought into the salve world. Being a slave is horrible, and these people wanted out of it. They started to try to escape and if they got caught, they could be killed. The civil war took place from 1861 - 1965. Many soliders lost thier lives. Some basic information about the civil war, there were three sides, the north (union) and the south (confederates). The union led by General Meade and the confederates led by General Lee. Many generals were appointed to lead the union army; such as McClellan and Grant. All of the union members either apposed salavery or wanted it to stop spreading. They knew that it wrong and very cruel and unhuman. Action was needed and taken. Everyday more africans were brought into the U.S, specifically in the south to be slaves. In the end, many people lost their lives to fight for the right. If slavery was stopped, this would of never have happened.==

__**This a perfect example of liberty, they wanted their freedom from their owners.**__

**Cuba is a dictatorship, this makes things very hard for the people lifes. You cant leave the country without written permission. Thier fildel castro was a bad dictor, many thousands of cubans tried to escape to the U.S. Fighting againest this dictatorship can result in death or prision.** ** If you are poor or lack money funds, its hard to live a good life. The hospitals are filthy and you need to bring your own sheets and pillows. Many people of cuba, dont like this living and are poor. Currently many people try to swim across the ocean to the "keys" islands right below florida. The U.S is working with the cuban government to improve relationships. ** []
