What was the reason of the south for the civil war?
They wanted to keep slavery in the country, because their ecosystem relied on slaves to do farm work. The north did not need slaves as much, because they didn't rely on farm work, like the southerners did. With out slaves in the south, then the farmers had to do their own work. That would have slowed down the process of farming, because there were less farmers than slaves. It isn't really too fun to work in the hot sun either. The slaves' black skin did not get burned easily. But the farmers would have to do the work by themselves, and they did not want that.
