the causes of the WBTS are MANY; the main one was/is seeking LIBERTY. true then, true now.

Read South Darolina's Declaration of Secession. It says the reason was the preservation of slavery.

if you are correct (and you are sadly misinformed), then you should have let us go. but of course, for the damnyankee government & elites, the war was about just ONE thing = continuing to CONTROL/DOMINATE the southland.

they cared/care about just ONE thing = POWER. true then, true now.
