Answer: C
Explanation:
Though the North would eventually outlaw slavery, they did benefit from it for a time. The civil war was about more than slavery. The south had a prospering economy because of cotton exports that were earned off the backs of slaves. The north, wanting a piece of that action asked the southerners for more taxes on exports. The south refused. So the north did it anyways, the south pulls out of the union, so the north says "If you wont give us taxes, we will free your workforce..." Or something along those lines. The north is often portrayed as heroes to the slaves, but really, they just wanted money. If you research how slaves who escaped to the north and fought for the union were treated, you will see that the north wasn't a bunch of choir boys.
