    By this standard the US civil war began no later than 1787, when the 3/5th and grand compromises.were necessary to get both factions to agree to the new constitution.

    There’s a reason why we don’t call the “three score and thirteen” years between the conference in Philadelphia and the attack on fort Sumter a “war”.
