Icky Nikki is right about this one. The cause of the civil war was preserving state rights vs the federal government. Lincoln said in his inaugural speech that he had no intention of ending slavery. He issued the Emancipation Proclamation in 1862 because he had to shore up support for the war and justify the massive loss of life by making the civil war a moral cause.
