Ask yourself this... If The same southern states choose to secede from the United States today do you think the govt would allow it to happen with out military intervention?
again, "if's" are not appropriate in studying history. looking back at an unbelievably complex event and time and asking what if that happened in 2015 is not how history is studied or learned and understood.

the indisputable facts of that time and event are the South seceded to protect their slave economy and they fired the first shots starting the war.
