Though the Triennial Convention and the Home Mission Society were theoretically neutral in regards to slavery, some Baptists in the South did not believe this assurance of neutrality. They knew several leaders who were engaged in abolitionist activity. To test this neutrality, Georgia Baptists recommended James E. Reeve, a slaveholder, to the Home Mission Society as a missionary in the South. The Society's board decided that they would not appoint a slaveholder as a missionary, a decision that the Baptists in the south saw as an infringement on their equal rights.[2] Another issue that disturbed the churches in the south was the perception that the American Baptist Home Mission Society (org. 1832) did not appoint a proportionate number of missionaries to the southern region of the US. Baptists both north and south preferred different types of denominational organization: the Baptists in the north preferred a loosely structured society composed of individuals who paid annual dues, with each society usually focused on a single ministry. Baptists in southern churches preferred an organization composed of churches patterned after their associations, with a variety of ministries brought under the direction of one denominational organization.[3] Baptists from the South subsequently broke from the national organizations and formed a new convention, the Southern Baptist Convention which was formed May 8–12, 1845, in Augusta, Georgia. Its first president was William Bullein Johnson (1782-1862), who was president of the Triennial Convention in 1841.

Inter-sectional trading was strictly forbidden from the start. But it still went on.

The newly freed slaves could join any religious church they wished. Before the war they had generally attended church with their masters and sat in a slave section frequently a balcony or they had worshipped in the afternoon. After the Civil War the free blacks generally moved to similar churches. Some of the Methodists remained Methodists but many more became AME. Most of the Southern Baptists joined other Baptist bodies. The newly liberated blacks simply stayed with a familiar religion.

Although inter-sectional trading was strictly forbidden, there was a certain amount of unofficial exchange of Southern cotton for Northern munitions and medicine.

I don’t know what other Baptists believe so I can’t know what is different except that Independent Baptists tend to view the King James translation as the only good bible and all others translations as lesser or even as evil depending on how and where the pastor was educated. As far as the other response goes I think is wrong. Southern Baptists formed at the time of the Civil War and slavery was certainly a large part of the South breaking away from the US as well as the formation of the Southern Baptist denominatio. There were other issues at stake as well. You will not find Southern Baptists today who support slavery.
During the sectional crisis, Jefferson Davis emerged as a prominent advocate for the Southern cause, emphasizing states' rights and the preservation of slavery. He served as a U.S. Senator from Mississippi and later as the Secretary of War under President Franklin Pierce, where he supported pro-Southern policies. As tensions escalated, he became a key leader in the Confederate States of America, ultimately serving as its president during the Civil War, where he sought to unite the Southern states and defend their sovereignty against the Union.
