What was the Southern response to the ideas of banning slavery in the US territories?

Southern plantation holders were appalled at the idea that that slavery would be banned in the US territories. They realized that as the territories became States and continued their anti slavery positions, the South would became an even smaller group of slave holding States. In turn, this could lead to the abolition of slavery nationwide. They were correct in this assumption. Most Americans were against slavery. In the days of antebellum, their Congressional response was the passing of the Missouri Compromises.

What was the emancipation proclamation and who issued?

Good question - what was it? It looked like a human rights document, appealing for a crusade against the evils of slavery. In fact, it was an urgent tactical measure brought on by the war situation, where Britain looked like sending military aid to the Confederates. If Lincoln could turn the war into an official crusade against slavery, then Britain would have to stay out, having aboloshed its own slavery thirty years earlier.


Why was president Lincoln forced to address the issue of slavery during the civil war?

Because he was extremely worried about Britain and France planning to help the Confederates. He had to turn the war into an official crusade against slavery (or make it look as though it was), so that free nations abroad could not aid the South without looking pro-slavery.
