STATES RIGTHS

• When anti-slavery Republican Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election in 1860, Southerners were sure that the North meant to take away their right to govern themselves, abolish slavery, and destroy the Southern economy. Having exhausted their legal and political options, they felt that the only way to protect themselves from this Northern assault was to no longer be a part of the United States of America.Northerners, however, led by Abraham Lincoln, viewed secession as an illegal act.

• The southern states liked slavery because need it for economic reasons not for beating.
