Eh, there were much bigger issues to southern states than slavery that led to the civil war.

The civil war was not about slavery. It was about the federal government overstepping their bounds. Unfortunately, one of those issues was slavery but that was not the sole reason. If it was about slavery, why did Licoln wait until the end of the war to abolish slavery? He only used this as a bargaining chip to demoralize the South.
