When Fort Sumter was bombed

Explanation:

The U. S. government under President James Buchanan refused to relinquish its forts that were in territory claimed by the Confederacy. The war itself began on April 12, 1861, when Confederate forces bombarded Fort Sumter, a major U. S. fortress in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina.
