| === Founding ===
| |
| The Republican Party was founded on March 20, 1854 as a coalition of the industrial [[bourgeoisie]] in the north-eastern states, advocating for an end to the political power of the [[Slavery in the United States|slave]] owning [[oligarchy]] in the south. The victory of the Republican candidate, [[Abraham Lincoln]], in the 1860 election would lead to the secession of the slave-holding states and the beginning of the [[Statesian Civil War]], lasting from 1861 to 1865, ending in a victory for the Union and the elimination of [[chattel slavery]] in the US.<ref name=":0">{{Citation|author=V.
