Explanation:

Abraham lincoln was the 16th president of the United States. He was born on February 12th, 1809, in Hodgenville, Kentucky. His living situation growing up was rough, as his father lost everything when Abraham was young and his family had to move to Perry County, Indiana. When he was just nine years old, his mother died and his sister Sarah took care of him until his father remarried. Abraham Lincoln was self educated and learned from books that he borrowed. When he got older, he worked various jobs such as a shopkeepter and surveyer. He soon moved into politics and won a seat in the Illinois Legislature when he was 25. When he was 33 years old, Abraham Lincoln married Mary Todd on November 4, 1842, at her sister Elizabeth's home in Springfield, Illinois. She was 23 years old. The couple had four sons, all were born in Springfield, Illinois and only one survived until adulthood. In 1860, Lincoln ran for President of the United States. He was a member of the fairly new Republican party which strongly opposed allowing any of the southern states to secede (leave the country). The republicans were also against slavery. They said they would allow for slavery to continue in the southern states, but that it would not be allowed to spread to new U.S. states or territories. Abraham Lincoln won the 1860 election and was inaugurated as president in March of 1861. His Vice president was Andrew Johnson. The southern states did not want Lincoln to be president. They did not agree with his policies. Abraham lincoln led the Civil War on April 12, 1861 at Fort Sumter in South Carolina just a month after he took office. Lincoln was determined to maintain the "Union" of the states. He called for an army from the northern states to defeat the south. What followed was a bloody war that lasted four years and cost the lives of 600,000 Americans. Lincoln faced all sorts of opposition during the war, but managed to hold the country together.  One interesting fact about Abraham Lincoln is that he is the tallest president. He stands at 6 feet 4 inches.
