What were the 7 causes of the civil war

There were many different causes of the Civil War and even more

reasons as to why each soldier fought.

1. Election of Abraham Lincoln. We was a conservative republican

who disagreed with slavery.

2. The Western states of the US were deciding whether to be a

free state or a slave state. It pushed the issue of slavery into

the public eyes.

3. The Southern states felt that their best interest was not

being sought for by Lincoln.

4. The South felt that the North was being too aggressive in

limiting their states rights.

5. Books such as Uncle Tom's Cabin were being written, reviling

the horrors of slavery.

6. Significant men and women such as John Brown, Harriet Tubman,

Sojourner Truth, and Frederick Douglas battled openly about the

slave issue.

7. Slavery and States Rights were the two prime causes I can

think of. In addition to that, many fought not to support these

causes, but to find glory, escape their monotonous life, protect

their country/family, seek adventure.

1. States' Rights

2. The Missouri Compromise

3. The Dred Scott Decision

4. The Abolitionist Movement

5. Abolitionist John Brown

6. John Brown's Raid On Harpers Ferry

7. Slavery In America

There were more, but that's 7 causes.
