The war was because without the resources from the south like cotton and tobacco the union states would take a huge hit. Other than that Lincoln would have let them separate without quarrel and keep their ******. The war started in 1861 and the ****** werent freed until 1862. Not to mention the union could use the extra help from ****** by converting them to soldiers with the promise of freedom in victory. At the end of the day natural goods were the bottom line not slavery. Slavery was just sounded like a more noble cause.
Could use the extra help?? The Union outnumbered the Southern forces like 3 to 1, top it off with all the extra resources they had.

If you believe that you probably believe that operation Iraqi freedom was fought to liberate the people of Iraq tooI'm not saying it was just due to slavery. You wackos need to learn to read. Was it a major issue? Yes!! Was it THE issue? No.
