Sectionalism was one of the causes of the Civil War. The Southern states seceded from the Union because they didn't want President Lincoln to free their slaves. The South depended on their slaves to help with their farms; the slaves were part of the South's life. When Abraham Lincilon became President, the South didn't want to be part of the Union. They became the Confederate States of America. After the Civil War though, the South was united again with the North and slavery was abolished.
