[QUOTE]Originally posted by Americana: [QB] I'm glad we all trust the propaganda provided to us by <STRIKE>Emperor</STRIKE> Uncle Sam. I'll just defer to Maryland's state song, quoted above. By the 1860's, slavery was well on its way to extinction, with the advent of modern industrial methods and the popularity of abolitionist movements. The southern states seceded not because of slavery, but because of other economic factors (train tracks leading everywhere but the south, national reliance on foreign agriculture, etc.). In short, the Confederacy was formed because the parties involved believed that the central government was not representing their economic interests, [b]in the same manner that the American colonies seceded from Britain barely a century before[/b].
