South was too much of the GDP. All about money.
Norther tariffs were a problem and so were the abolitionists. Make no mistake about it the ecclesiastical group clergy or laity agreed the conditions of slaves in some areas fell well below the Bible’s standard and they agreed that if they were brought up to biblical standards it would change into something all together different. Not to mention technological changes were happening and the institution was going to die out. Remember slavery died out in every other western society without a war.
Now because of that we have a government that is massive and goes way beyond its authority. The abuse of authority that we saw during covid originated with the war between the states. Reconstruction was a nightmare! Again most history today is very revisionist!
