Lincoln the greatest President?
Easily. Lincoln was a man of rare courage and determination. He forged a loose collection of states into a unified nation, and set the stage for the rise of the US as a world power. He also ended the abomination of human slavery in the US.
who started the Civil war? tell us how it started?
The Confederacy started the Civil War, by attacking Fort Sumter.

Why did they attack Fort Sumpter? the North imposed a tax on the South, approx. 80% of it would benefit the North. I would fight back also.
