The war would have been avoided if Lincoln had just ordered the Yankee garrison out of Charleston harbor, it's all he had to do.

The war could have also been avoided if the Davis regime allowed Lincoln to resupply Sumter with food, it's all he had to do.

The war could have also been avoided if the Lincoln regime had not sent in troops, and simply abided by the existing amistice.
