Below you will find our brainstormed list of causes for the Civil War. Feel free to add anything that you feel is missing in your original post. In order to achieve some of the answers, you will need to research.

ONLY SUBMIT ONE POST with each objective answered!!! I advise you to write your response in a Word doc, body of an email, or a Google Doc first and then copy and paste it into your comment.

    State rights v. Federal Government:
    States wanted to be able to disagree and not have certain laws in their state. When the government denied them this, they began to think about seceding.

    Different economies:
    Industry/Agriculture
    The factories in the North did not require as much labor to run as the South’s agriculture did. This was why the South needed the slave labor-it was cheaper, faster, and they did not have to do any work themselves. Therefore, the South was convinced slave labor was necessary, while the North fought against it.

    Taxes/Tariffs:
    Taxes and tariffs were just starting during the Civil War.

    Labor Forces:
    Labor forces were also just starting.

    Social Classes:
    Social classes in the South were organized with the whites in their own separate classes and the blacks, who were not considered people didn’t have a class. The North did not have such classes.

    Abolitionists:
    Frederick Douglass
    John Brown
    Harriet Tubman
    Sojourner Truth
    William Lloyd Garrison

    Most Contribution to Civil War:
    1. Abraham Lincoln is elected president
    2. The South secedes
    3. Fort Sumter is attacked by Confederates
    4. The Underground Railroad is officially organized
    5. Cotton gin is created
    6. The Fugitive Slave act is changed so slave owners can recapture slaves in the North
    7. The Emancipation Proclamation is issued
    8. The Compromise of 1850 is formed

    It appears that we have a lot to discuss. I can't wait to see how we will compromise.

    Do you think your opinion would change of the most important event if I asked you the most important category?
