What the true about the issue about north and south?

The true issue between the North and the South was that the South wanted to use their states rights as the constitution stated they should be. The government wanted the South to obey the laws that they set forth. The beginning of the Civil War had little to do with the slavery issue. It was the same principle that made us want to be independent of England: We (the south) did not want a government that was very far away dictating to us how we should govern our people and live our lives.

Why did some southerners want to break away from the US?

During the pre-Civil War era, the South was beginning to think that they didn't have much of a voice in the government and the government didn't care as much about what they wanted.

Eventually, these issues pushed some southern states to secede, the first being South Carolina. More states followed, and they formed the Confederacy, or the Confederate States of America.

Why did the north and south have a war?

The primary issue was slavery. The North did not want it, those who were in charge in the South depended on it for their economy. Ever since the beginnings of the US the two sides had disputed on this issue but had always come to compromises that allowed the South to continue this inhuman practice. Finally, the election of Abraham Lincoln was seen by the South as sign that the North was going to end slavery, so they rebelled and left the United States, forming the Confederate States of American. The North went to war to stop them from breaking up the United States. Many people will say that it was actually about state's rights versus the power of a central government, but history shows that the only state's rights issue the South was interested in enough to go to war was Slavery.
