you may want to the contact the Sons of the Confederacy, they do alot of study into certain those who served in states precise conflict. and surely the warfare had no longer something to do with slavery, it changed into an economic difficulty. Lincoln did not loose slaves till eventually the suitable of the warfare, and in easy words then because he idea it may help at a time even as the North changed into afraid they were dropping the warfare. The North changed into making use of tax funds for initiatives contained in the North and West and in no way brining most of the tax funds accrued contained in the South decrease back to the South, also the federal authorities changed into beginning to take too a lot ability, the consititution of the U. S. changed into think to provide states any precise no longer specificly given to the federal authorities, despite the indisputable fact that the North and the federal authorities stated taking up further and extra ability. ( they could all die to be certain it at the moment) So the south, on account that each state changed into think to be loose to settle on basically wanted to go away u.s.. Which lower than a genuine republic they ought to were waiting to. So the U. S. making use of its military pressure wanting to pressure the southeran states to stay contained in the union ( so that they could proceed to get thier tax funds) because the South misplaced, lots of the fact of why they tried to chop loose has been misplaced and re-written by ability of the winner to bigger positive justify thier motives.
