It's a matter of opinion, but I think slavery would have died out eventually with increasing mechanization of agriculture and realization by the plantation owners that paying someone by the hour is cheaper than supporting his entire family 24/7 for the rest of their lives.

It is impossible to say for certain, as historical events depend on various factors and circumstances. However, if the Confederacy had won the Civil War, it is likely that slavery would have continued in the southern states for a significant period of time. The economic and social structure of the region relied heavily on the institution of slavery, and it would have taken significant pressure and changes from within and outside for it to be abolished.

How did slavery impact America?
Slavery had a huge impact on American society, and it still has. Especially in the South of America was a lot of slavery. Black people were seen as inferior and white people really thought they were not capable of thinking. During the Civil War, the North was against slavery and the South wasn't. Many people died to fight for the abolishment of slavery. Finally slavery was abolished and black people were free. However, blacks were still seen as an inferior race. Also, the difference in the North and South can still be seen in America. As a black person you can often be called the N-word in Southern America.

Where does slavery still exist?
No slavery does not still exist in the US today. Slavery was over in 1865 in the US { but it does still exist in different parts of the world} after the Civil War. Former President Lincoln was the leader of the Civil War and he was the one who signed the bill to end slavery after the Civil War {so you can see that the Civil War was part of slavery}. If the north lost the Civil War slaves would probably still exist today and we would have more conflicts with the south. So remember slavery is over in the US, and it was over in 1865. But it still happens in different parts of the world. One example in the world which still has slavery is Asia.

If Lincoln did not issue the 13th would slavery still be going on this very day and why?
No. The US was not the only place with slavery, and it was not the last to end the practice. Many countries in Central and South America also had slavery. All ended slavery within a generation or two after the US Civil War ended. If the Civil War had not brought things to a crisis, slavery would have ended at around the same time in the US, if not sooner, due to international pressure. There is still slavery in the world, but its done very quietly, so as not to attract international outrage, in places like Haiti, and by our very best friends in Saudi Arabia.

no the south caceeded and then the civil war accured and THEN it stoped in the united states. slavery still exist today in other countries.
How do you think the north and the south could have settled their differences without going to war?
no. both seemed too stubborn to ever give up their beliefs or ways of life. the south would have never given up slavery and we possibly could still have had slavery to this day. and lincoln wanted to end slavery once he was elected president so the civil war was unavoidable.
