The South protested between 1860 and 1861 primarily due to concerns over the election of Abraham Lincoln, whose anti-slavery stance threatened the institution of slavery that was integral to the Southern economy and way of life. Southern states feared that his presidency would lead to the abolition of slavery and encroach upon their states' rights. This unrest culminated in the secession of several Southern states from the Union, ultimately leading to the outbreak of the Civil War. The protests reflected deep-seated social, economic, and political tensions between the North and South.
