What led the South to ceded from the Union; Was Slavery an issue? Did it lead to the Civil War?

There were many reasons why the South wanted to secede but the main reason had to do with the North's view on slavery. There were a few reasons other then the slavery issue, that the South disagreed on and that persuaded them to ceded from the Union. The North favored a loose interpretation of the United States Constitution. They wanted to grant the federal government increased powers. The South wanted to reserve all undefined powers …

…the South seceded it was said by Abraham Lincoln, "A house divided against it cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free." Because slavery formed two opposing societies, and slavery could never be abolished, the Civil War was inevitable." These were all the reasons why the South seceded from the Union and there was no other way to avoid succession because the North and South had very opposing views.
