History is written by the victors. The victors always see themselves as the 'good guys'.
Not subscribing to your 'rewritten' version is not ignorance and I will submit to you that the opposite is true.
including the economics
Do you actually know anything about that?
Do you want to discuss the "Tariff of Abominations" in the 1820's and/or the Nullification Crisis of the 1830's?
people like Davis to treason before you start tearing people like Lincoln apart.
Davis was never even tried for treason so I don't think that the likes of you can convict him here or anywhere else.
On the other hand, Lincoln’s war against the Confederacy and Southern civilians was all for money, company profits and government tariff revenues. A simple case of political pay back in return for the Northeastern manufacturing interests that supported the Republican Party and his campaign for the presidency. These special interests would have suffered serious financial loss if a low tariff Confederate States of America were allowed to peacefully, democratically and constitutionally secede from the United States in lawful state constitutional conventions of secession which were identical to the ratification conventions when they had joined the Union. The real reasons for the death and destruction of Lincoln’s War were covered up and hidden by historians who continue, even today, to deny the truth.
There you go. Economics.
The myths are always written by the losers. The losers always see themselves as the 'victims'.

Sure. Let 'er rip.
There you go. Economics.
There you go. Myths.
What the hell does that have to do with Abe Lincoln?
Davis was never even tried for treason so I don't think that the likes of you can convict him here or anywhere else.
If those damn Yankees were as evil as you portray, Davis would have been shot on sight. Lincoln's policy was reconciliation and reconstruction, not revenge.

Funny how economically, the North prospered during the war without revenue from the South while the southern economy collapsed without Northern markets to sell to.
There was nothing Constitutional about unilateral secession. It was treason and rebellion done for the benftit of a few.
