One of the biggest arguments between the north and the south, was whether or not the new states (California, and other states in the west) would be a slave state or a free state. Who ever gained those states would get the advantage to stop slavery from spreading. When the north won California and another state i believe, the south felt cheated and wanted to secede then but the compromise of the fugitive slave law was issued keeping them in the union.
Southern slave owners could see that eventually Congress was likely to outlaw slavery.
There were also states' rights issues. The South had resented tariffs that were imposed to protect Northern industry at the expense of the South who had to pay for imports .

The civil war in the US?
It's simple really, it began because the people of the south wanted to have slaves and the people in the north did not want slaves.
In south Carolina.
The US military draft began in the US Civil War (1861-1865).
i think it was during the civil war ( towards the end of the war )
That is where General Lee surrenderd to Ggeneral Grant, which ended the civil war. because thats where the south (confederacy) surrendered so it represents the unions victory as well as the signifigance of the long bloody civil war being over and alowing the reconstruction to begin.
Actual combat began at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor, SC on April 12, 1861.
