They split because of a) general cultural differences and b) there was a dispute with the Proprietors (guys who owned the state). They DID NOT split because South Carolina wanted slavery and wanted to be a Confederate state and North Carolina wanted to be a Union state. The country, being the United States, was not even formed yet and would not be formed for another 64 years (the Carolinas officially and legally split in 1712, yet South Carolina became it's own legal entity and a royal colony in 1719).
