Document Summary
Both civil war and the churned up slavery appeared as a consequence of various events in the past. It was the development of southern and northern section of united states along different set patterns which led to the conflict of settlement upon issues such as tariffs, internal improvements, taxes and the comparison among states and federal rights. The situation in south was such that they brought africans to work for them in their large plantations and perform duties. It was so entwined in the economy of south that the slaves who , though owned by a smaller social group in population, were the mark of respect and esteem for the one who owned them. In addition, it added so well to the corporate persona of people that the prices of slaves soared more than those of land and cotton and people owned them as their personal or business property.
