The South greatly wanted foreign powers to enter the Civil War; Southern leaders believed that Britain and France would intervene on the Confederacy's behalf. The confederacy hoped that it would gain foreign support and would rush to victory like the colonists did in the American Revolution with French support. However, as we know, this never happened. Abraham Lincoln made sure of that when he issued the Emancipation Proclamation. Once slavery was introduced as a focal point of Civil war conflict, nations like Britain and France, that had banned slavery, would not become embroiled in the conflict.
