Why The Civil War?
I feel that the South was going against the constitution by seceding. I also feel that slavery was a horrible thing and that it should have been banned those 20 years after the constitution was written. A war wasn't the only way to stop it before that time period. If it was a bigger problem before we got the Louisiana Purchase, we could have stopped slavery in Congress. But now that the US has all of the modern day US (except Hawaii and Alaska) it would be incredibly hard to get rid of it without a war. Just imagine what the war would be like if it was the entire north of the US versus the entire south of the US.
