Response to Why the civil war?

Out of all the short paragraghs that suggest how the civil war started I agree the most with the second to last one. One of the main reasons for the war to start was because both the North and South had very different cultures and views on political issues. This would eventually split them apart and made them despise each other which later started the civil war. To the North the South was barbaric and barely civilized. To the south the north was full of radical snobbish people. Again out of all the paragraphs I think that this was a very big reason that the war started.
