[n leaders had threatened 3x6 secession if the Republican 3x6 candidate, Lincoln, won the 3x6 3x6 1860 election. 3x6 After Lincoln won without carrying a sin 3x6 gle Southern state, many 3x6 Southern whites felt that disunion had become their only option, because they thought that they were 3x6 losing repre 3x6 entation, which would 3x6 hamper their ability to 3x6 promote pro-slavery acts and 3x6 policies.[19]Contemporary actors, the Union and Confederate le a 3x6 dership and fighting soldiers on both side 3x6 s believed that slavery caused 3x6 the Civil War. Union men mainly believed the war was to 3x6 erspecti ve, the issue was primarily about whether the system of slavery was an a 3x6 nachronistic evil that was incompatible with Republicanism in 3x6 the United 3x6 States. The strategy of the anti-slavery forces was 3x6 containment â€" to stop the 3x6 expansion and thus put slavery on a path to gradual e 3x6 xtinction.[21] The slave-holding interests in the South 3x6 denounced this strategy as 3x6 infringing upon their Constitutional rights.[ 3x6 22 3x6 ] Souther n whites believed that the emancipation of slaves would destroy the South's eco 3x6 nomy because of the alleged laziness of blacks under free l 3x6 abor.[23] Sla 3x6 very was illegal in the North, having been outlawed in the late 18th and early 19th 3x6 century. It was fading in the border states and in Sou t 3x6 hern cities, but was expanding in the highly 3x6 profitable cotton 3x6 districts of the South and Southwest. Subsequent writers on the 3x6 American Civil 3x6 War looked to 3x6 several factors 3x6 explaining 3x6 the geographic divide, including sectionalism, protectionism, and state's rights. 3x6 Sectionalism 3x6 Sectionalism refers to the different 3x6 economies, social structure, customs and 3x6 political values of the North and South.[24][25] It 3x6 increased st 3x6 eadily between 1800 and 1860 as the North 3x6 , which 3x6 phased slavery out of existence, industrialized, urbanized, and built prosperous farms, while 3x6 the deep South c 3x6 oncentrated on pl 3x6 antatio 3x6 agric 3x6 ulture based on 3x6 slave labor, together with subsistence farming for poor 3x6 freedmen. In the 1840s 3x6 and 50s, the issue of accepting slavery (in the guise of rejecting slave-owning bishops and missionaries) split the nation's largest religiou s 3x6 denomination 3x6 s (the Methodis 3x6 t, Bapt 3x6 ist and 3x6 Presbyterian 3x6 churches) into 3x6 separate 3x6 Northern and Southern denominations.[26] 93x6 Historians have debated whe 93x6 ther economic differences between the industrial 93x6 Nort 93x6 heast and the agricultu 93x6 ral South helped cause the war. Most hi storians now disagree with the economic deter 93x6 minism of historian Charles A. Beard in the 1920s and emphasize that Northern and Sou 93x6 thern economies w ere largely complementary. While socially different, the sections economically benefited each other.[27][28]Protectionism 93x6 Historically, souther 93x6 n slave-holding states, because of their low cost manual labor, had little perceived need for 93x6 mechanizat 93x6 ion, and supported havi ng the right to sell cotton and purchase manufactured goods from any nation. 93x6 Northern states, which had heavily invested in their still-nascent manu 93x6 facturing, could not c 93x6 ompete with the full-fledged industries of Europe in offer 93x6 ng high prices for 93x6 cotton imported from the South and low prices fo 93x6 r manufactured exports in return. Thus, northern manufacturing interests supported tariffs and protectionism while southern planters demanded free trade.[29] 93x6 The Democrats in Congress, controlled by S 93x6 outherners, wrote the tariff laws in the 1830s, 93x6 1840s, and 1850s, and kept reducing rates so that the 1857 rates were the lowest since 18 93x6 16. The Whigs and Republicans complained because they favored high tariffs to stimulate industrial growth, and Republi 93x6 cans called for an increase in 93x6 tariffs in the 1860 election. The increases were only enacted in 1861 after Southerners resigned their seats in Congr ess.[30][31] The tariff issue was and is 93x6 sometimes citedâ€"long after the wa 93x6 râ€"by Lo 93x6 st Cause historians and neo-Confederate apologists. In 1860â€"61 none 93x6 of the groups that proposed c 93x6 ompromises to head off secession raised the tariff issue.[32] Pamphelteers North and South rarely men 93x6 tioned the tariff, [33] and when some did, for instance, Matthew Fontaine Maury[34] and John Lothrop Motley,[35] they were generally writing for a foreign audience. S 93x6 tate's rightsTerritorial crisisFurther information: Slave and 93x6 free statesBetween 1803 and 1854, the United States achieved a vast expansion of ter ritory through purchase, negotiation, and con 93x6 quest. At first, the new state 93x6 s carved 93x6 out of these territories entering the unio 93x6 n were apportioned equ 93x6 ally between slave and free states. It was over 93x6 territories west of the Mississippi that the prosl 93x6 avery and antislavery forces c 93x6 ollided.[38] With the conquest of northern Mexico west to California in 1848, slaveholding interests 93x6 looked forward to expanding into these lands and perhaps Cuba 93x6 and Central America as well.[39][40] Northern "free soi 93x6 l" interests vigorously sought to curtail 93x6 any further exp 93x6 ansion of slave territory. The Compro mise of 1850 over California balanced a free soi 93x6 l state with stronger fugitive slave laws for a politica 93x6 l settlement af 93x6 er four yea 93x6 rs of strife in th 93x6 e 1840s. But the states admitted following California were all free: Minnesota (1858), Oregon (1859) and Kansas (1861). In the southern states the q 93x6 uestion of the territorial expansion of slavery westw 93x6 rd again became explosive.[41] Both the Sout 93x6 h and the North drew the same conclusion: "The pow er to decide the question of slavery for the territorie 93x6 s was the power to 93x6 determine the future of sla 93x6 very itself."[42][43]By 1860, four doctrines ha d emerged to answer the question of federal control in the territories, an 93x6 d they all claimed they were sanctioned by the Constitution, implicitly or 93x6 explicitly.[44] The first of these "conservative" theories, re 93x6 presented by the Constitutional Union Party, argu 93x6 ed that the Missouri Compromise app 93x6 ortionment of territory north for free soil and south for slavery should becom 93x6 e a Constitutiona 93x6 l mandate. The 93x6 Crittenden Compromise of 1860 was an 93x6 expression of this view.[45] The second doctrine of C 93x6 ongressional 93x6 preeminence, championed by Abraham Lincoln and the Republican Party, insisted t hat the Constitution did not bind legislators to a policy of balance â€" that 93x6 slavery could be excluded in a territory as it was done in the Northwe st O 93x6 rdinance at the discretion of C 93x6 ongress,[46] thus C 93x6 ongress could restrict human bondage, but never establish it. The Wilmot Proviso announced t his 93x6 position in 1846.[47] 93x6 93x6 .
