Disagreements involving slavery and states' rights were two of the main causes of the American Civil War. The Southern states advocated for the right to maintain slavery as an essential part of their economy and culture, while Northern states sought to limit its expansion. The conflict over states' rights intensified as Southern states believed they should have the authority to govern themselves, including making decisions about slavery. This fundamental clash ultimately led to secession and the outbreak of war in 1861.

Tariffs, state's rights, slavery, and cultural differences.
Although slavery was used as a catalyst, the central issue of the war between the states was state rights vs, federal rights; the southern states did not want the federal government to have the power nor authority to tell them what to do.
The South advocated Slavery and States Rights.
Sectionalism, slavery, and states' rights were interconnected causes of the Civil War, as they reflected the growing divide between the North and South. The North's industrial economy contrasted sharply with the South's reliance on slave labor, leading to tensions over the expansion of slavery into new territories. States' rights emerged as a rallying cry for Southern states seeking to protect their interests and maintain the institution of slavery, leading to conflicts over federal authority. This combination of economic differences, moral opposition to slavery, and the desire for state autonomy ultimately fueled the secessionist movement and the onset of the Civil War.

The main political underlying causes of the American Civil War were disagreements over states' rights versus federal authority, particularly regarding the expansion of slavery into new territories, economic differences between the industrial North and the agrarian South, and the election of President Abraham Lincoln, who opposed the spread of slavery. These long-standing tensions ultimately led to the secession of Southern states and the outbreak of war in 1861.
