What was the biggest disagreement between the North and the south during the civil war?

The biggest disagreement between the north and the south was slavery. The south wanted slavery but the north did not. the north beleived that slavery was cruel and wrong and in almost all northern states it was illgegal. however the south had very fertile land, perfect for planting crops like tobacco and cotton. they needed slaves to collect and clean these crops and they feared their economy would fail without the free labor from slaves. so the south decided to free it's self from the united states and become it's own country where slavery was legal. the north did not like the idea but the north did not start the war. the south attacked a northern fort and began the civil war. This all happened just after Abraham Lincoln became president. Abraham Lincoln and the north won the war and the south was re-joined with the north. Abraham Lincoln also abolished slavery in all states, both north and south.


Why did it take so long for the US to put an end to slavery when it was outlawed and condemned much earlier by countries like Great Britain?

In the United States the biggest disagreement during the 1800's was over the issue of Slavery, that is wither or not it was just, moral and fair to buy and sell humans to do common manual labor. The northern states believed in a strong federal government that could and should decide to outlaw slavery. The southern states believed in a weak federal government that would leave the issue of slavery up to each individual state to decide as they saw fit. This disagreement lead to the decision of the southern states to withdraw from the United States of America (USA) and form their own sovereign country called the Confederated States of America (CSA). This withdrawal of the southern state from the Union then lead to the Civil War.
