How did the differences over slavery threaten the existence of the united states?
The north was opposed to slavery, and the south depended on slave labor. Therefore, the north and the south had opposing views on slavery. These views threatened to tear the U.S. apart, because some southern states threatened to secede from the Union, and the south was angry that many slaves escaped by running away to the north. Plus, the north ridiculed the south for ever allowing slavery, after northerners read the controversial novel, Uncle Tom's Cabin. It seems that neither side could think of a compromise. Eventually, this resulted in the Civil War.
What is the difference between Northerners and Southerners over the issue of slavery is an example?
Northerners generally opposed slavery, seeing it as immoral and wanting to abolish it. Southerners, on the other hand, relied on slavery for their economy and were invested in maintaining the institution.

Why did slaveholders try to convince poor and whites that slavery was justified?
Slaveholders wanted to create a united front among all white people to maintain their power and control over slaves. By convincing poor and whites that slavery was justified, they aimed to prevent any potential alliances or uprisings that could threaten the institution of slavery. Additionally, promoting the idea of white superiority helped to uphold a social hierarchy that benefited the slaveholders economically and socially.
