How did north feel about states rights?

i dont know you wont answer my question


What key difference between the north and the south led to the civil war?

The Civil War was really all about slavery. The South wanted slavery to continue, and generally the North wanted slavery to end. However, from the South's point of view the Civil War was all about states rights versus federal government rights. The South wanted the states to have more rights and therefore more power than the federal government. The North generally wanted the federal government to have more rights and therefore more power than the states.

Why did North Carolina not ratifiy the constitution I know it was because of the bill of rights but why did they feel that way about the Bill of Rights?

North Carolina initially did not ratify the Constitution because it believed that it did not adequately protect individual rights and liberties. They insisted on the inclusion of a Bill of Rights as a safeguard against potential government overreach. Once the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution, North Carolina ratified it in 1789.

Why did the federalists argue against inclusion of a bill of rights in the constitutions?

The Federalist didn't want to add the Bill of Rights because they didn't feel it was needed. They didn't feel it was needed because the powers of the Federal Government was specifically listed in the Constitution, and the Federal Government would have no right to intrude on anything not specifically listed. By listing rights in the First Amendment for example, it appears to be granting rights to the people, even though the anti-federalist put it their to simply specify what the Federal Government had no control over. But by doing so, it appeared to be rights that were given to us by the constitution, when those basic rights we're deemed god given or natural rights that transcend government, as listed at the Virginia Convention.

How might Abraham Lincolns victory in the election of 1860 lead to future problems?

Many people in the north wanted no part of slavery anywhere in the country. Southerners wanted slavery because they thought it helped production of crops etc. There are contrasting beliefs. Abraham Lincoln was from the North and a proponent of Federal rights and powers to limit slavery. The southern states wanted strong state powers and rights and weaker federal powers and rights. Slavery was a States Right issue and the federal government should not interfere. The northern states wanted the exact opposite, strong federal powers and rights and weaker state powers and rights. The right of the Federal government to abolish Slavery should trump any so-called States Rights. So the southern states voted to secede from or leave the United States also know as the Union. The US Civil War was thus started.
