I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. If you're asking if the civil war started the issue of slavery, no. Slavery was always an issue. If you're asking if slavery started the civil war, not exactly. The point of the civil war according to Abraham Lincoln was to preserve the Union. The Confederacy was only fighting in defense. Eventually slavery became abolished as an aftermath of the civil war, but the only reason the war itself was started was in order to preserve the Union.
