slavery
Actually there were two major issues that were decided by the US Civil War. The end of the Confederate rebellion made it clear that secession from the United States was eventually as being illegal. The Union's victory in the US Civil War also meant that slavery would be abolished in the US by the 13th amendment.
The north considered the main issue in the war to be slavery. The south considered the main issue in the war to be state's rights. So as you see they weren't even fighting over the same issues!
The main issue that divided the North and the South before the onset of the US Civil War centered around slavery. Most Northerners were content to let slavery in the South continue, but were opposed to the expansion of slavery in the territories. The session of the Southern states ended that particular point of friction.

The Civil War (1861-1865) The Civil War was fought between the Union (north) and the Confederacy (south). The war was fought mainly about the issue of slavery. The Union eventually won and that is what makes us the United States of America today.
Following the American Revolution, for many years the major concerns of the US were westward expansion, fighting wars with the indigenous population ("Indians"), and struggling with the problems of slavery, and the slave state vs. non-slave state issue, which was only resolved by the Civil War.
