History of North America

Name two of the problems that led to Civil War?

1. The issue of slavery. The Southern states were heavily dependent on slavery for their economy, while the Northern states were increasingly opposed to it. This led to a growing conflict between the two regions.

2. The issue of states' rights. The Southern states believed that they had the right to secede from the Union if they felt that their rights were being violated. The Northern states did not agree with this, and this led to a further conflict between the two regions.
