John Browns intent was to start a revolt by slaves, with the slaves killing their masters. This outraged many Southerners, and widened the division between North and South.
In response to the Harpers Ferry Raid in 1859, many Southern states heightened their fears of a potential slave revolt and increased their efforts to strengthen slave patrols and security measures. They viewed the raid as a direct threat from abolitionists and a sign of rising tensions between the North and South. This event contributed to the growing sectional divide, leading Southern states to adopt more aggressive stances on slavery and further solidifying their commitment to preserving the institution. The raid ultimately intensified the climate of distrust and hostility, paving the way for the Civil War.
The union of the South during the American Civil War was known as the Confederate States of America (CSA). Formed in 1861, it comprised 11 Southern states that seceded from the United States in response to issues such as states' rights and slavery. The Confederacy existed until its defeat in 1865, after which the Southern states were reintegrated into the Union.
Some southern states withdrew from the United States primarily due to disputes over slavery and states' rights. The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, who opposed the expansion of slavery, heightened fears among southern states that their way of life and economic interests were threatened. In response, these states sought to preserve their autonomy and protect the institution of slavery, leading them to secede and form the Confederate States of America. This ultimately sparked the Civil War.

Brown became a martyr and a song was written using the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic. As union troops marched they would sing this song to annoy the southern troops. " John Brown lies moldering in his grave." To the south he was proof that the abolitionist cause was dangerous.

The Southern Manifesto was written in 1956 by Southern politicians in response to the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, which called for the desegregation of public schools. The manifesto opposed racial integration and sought to uphold segregation in the Southern states.
John Brown was the leader of the raid and he wanted to create a colony for runaway slaves and to do this he needed weapons. Which led to the Harpers Ferry Raid.
