The Civil War, depsite what most people believe, was not started over slavery. It was actually started over the election of the the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. Slavery only played a part of the role in the Civil War. Slavery affected the Civil War because many slaves came in to help the North win the Battle, which did not help. In the end the Civil War basically ended slavery, or abolished it.
