They're all related to resolving the issues involved with the American Civil War; for this reason, they are often called the "Civil War Amendments".
- The 13th abolished slavery, which was the primary cause of the war.
- The 14th decided who is considered a US citizen (including the slaves who were freed by the 13th), and that all citizens have the same rights under the Constitution. It also resolved other more minor issues, like getting rid of the Three-Fifths Compromise and dealing with leftover Confederate issues.
- The 15th granted all citizens the right to vote, regardless of their race or if they had been slaves. This allowed all black men to vote- even the ones who had been slaves until the 13th freed them. I say men because women were generally not allowed to vote until the 19th Amendment was passed in 1920.
