96. What U.S. war ended slavery?
American History · 1800s
Accepted answer(s)
- The Civil War
This question comes from the American History section of the 2025 Civics Test. USCIS includes it to confirm applicants know the founding events and figures behind U.S. citizenship, not just civics theory. The accepted answer, "The Civil War", is worth memorizing exactly since dates and names are graded strictly in the interview.
This is question 96 of the 2025 Civics Test. See it on uscis.gov.
