Abraham Lincoln refused to compromise on issues related to the preservation of the Union and the abolition of slavery. He believed that allowing the expansion of slavery into new territories would undermine the nation's principles and ultimately threaten its existence. Lincoln was committed to preventing the spread of slavery, viewing it as morally wrong, and was determined to ensure that the Union remained intact despite growing divisions. His steadfast stance on these issues was pivotal in shaping the course of the Civil War and the future of the United States.
