the balance of power between the the states and the federal government
The north considered the main issue in the war to be slavery. The south considered the main issue in the war to be state's rights. So as you see they weren't even fighting over the same issues!
The issue of slavery.
The main issue that divided the North and the South before the onset of the US Civil War centered around slavery. Most Northerners were content to let slavery in the South continue, but were opposed to the expansion of slavery in the territories. The session of the Southern states ended that particular point of friction.
The big immediate issue was the law requiring all new states to be non slave states. The underlying large issue was the erosion of residual state sovereignty guaranteed in the 9th and 10th amendments of the constitution. That larger issue is still being fought in the courts today.
That there would always be hatred between the North and the South.

this was calleds the Civil War, a conflict between the North and the South.
Slavery was the one issue that divided the United States more than any other, ultimately leading to the Civil War. The debate over slavery's expansion into new territories and states deepened the divide between the North and South, culminating in the secession of Southern states and the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861.
