In 1860, the United States was as divided as it ever had been. The issue of slavery had been growing more and more contentious over the decades and by 1860, things were nearing a breaking point. 
The presidential election of 1860 literally would determine the future of the country, or if there would continue to even be a country. 
Learn more about the presidential election of 1860, the most important presidential election in American history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
