There is no main cause of the Civil War. Southerners would tell you that it was "'Cause them dang Yankees won't let us live the way we live," while Abolitionist would say that it wat to free the slaves. Carolinians would say that it was because of "States' Rights." People would say that it was caused by the south seceeding, or other people would try to explain why the south seceeded.

Why were new jersyans divided before te civil war began?

Before the Civil War, New Jersey was divided due to varying economic interests, social structures, and political affiliations. The northern part of the state leaned more towards industrialization and had a growing anti-slavery sentiment, while the southern region was more agrarian and had stronger ties to slaveholding states. Additionally, the presence of both abolitionist and pro-slavery factions created significant tension within communities. This division was further exacerbated by national issues such as states' rights and the expansion of slavery into new territories.
