STATES’ RIGHTS
• 
The 10th Amendment to the United States
Constitution states that all powers not given to
the Congress by the Constitution (Art. I, Sec. 8)
are reserved to the states, States' Rights.
• 
Because the power to decide issues regarding
slavery is not given to the Congress in the
Constitution, the southern states felt that is was
within their power to determine the issue.

Civil War: 1861-­‐‑1865
Northern States Northern States The Union ©2012, TESCCC
• 
The northern states agreed with the Federal Government and wanted to abolish slavery. • 
Their economy was based on industry and did not rely on slavery. • 
Very few families owned slaves. • 
The northern states represented the Union. Civil War: 1861-­‐‑1865
• 
The southern states did not agree with the Federal Government. •

The Confederacy Civil War: Causes
Tariffs
• 
The South was producing cotton and selling it to the
North as well as to England.
• 
Northern manufacturers were producing cloth they
wanted to sell in the South. However it was more
expensive for the North to produce goods than
England because they were better industrialized.
• 
The North wanted a protective tariff placed on
imported goods thus raising England’s prices on
goods.

Civil War: Causes
Tariffs
• 
Southerners and Northerners both would have to pay
more for manufactured goods imported from
overseas, which would help sales of products made
in the U.S.
• 
The South protested that the national government did
not have the right to do this.
• 
However, the Constitution gives the Congress the
power to pass import taxes (export taxes are
forbidden)
