How did the adoption of the constitution lead to the American Civil War?
If slavery is in the constitution then that helped lead to the War of the Rebellion (aka Civil War). If it's not, then the constitution had nothing to do with it. Slavery was the life style of the south up until 1865 (when the war ended). The reason the war started was so that LIFE STYLE could continue, either as a member of the United States or the Confederate States. It wasn't going to continue as a member of the US, so the south decided to leave the US and start their own country...the Confederate States of America. The US wasn't about to let a new nation be formed, so they (the US) fought to keep the CSA from forming. The US succeeded in keeping the CSA from becoming another nation on the North American continent.
