The Civil War was a war between the states. A war for or against slavery and states' rights within the United States. England and much of Europe tinkered with the idea of entering on the side of the South with the idea of gaining lost territory from the Revolutionary War, but the Emancipation Proclamation convinced them otherwise. France was also very interested in helping the South, but never did.
