If we had no war, we would of still had slavery for a time( it would have resolved itself with time and no war) if the South agreed to not secede they would of still had slaves, only secession was a reason for Lincoln and the North to fight. So, the war was not about slavery, because there wasn’t anyone fighting to free slaves, the north only rallied around the war cry of secession.Only secession alone was the cause of the invasion of the North. Practically any solution that left slavery untouched in the South would have been happily accepted by Lincoln. So, The War was about SECESSION.</blockquote>
