The northern states fight the southern states.

Problems leading to the Civil War are
• SlaveryAmerica has to decide if new states admitted to the union will be slave or free.
Northerners are against slavery and slave owners. Southerners are for slavery.
The people in the North and the South are far apart in their thinking.
![Page 12: The 1800s Growing Pains Clip art from unless.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062417/55151b87550346c77d8b4f9d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Economic reasons
The Southern economy is based on cotton and tobacco. Growing these crops depends on a lot of cheap labor (slaves).
The economy in the North is based on industry and city life. People in the Northdo not need slaves.

• States’ Rights
The Tenth Amendment gives the states all powers that the Constitution does not give to the United States or forbid to the states.
Many people think that means the states have the right to say if they will accept federal acts.
The federal government, however, says the states do not have thisright, so the Southern States decide to secede from the Union.
