Why did the United States fail to reach a compromise on slavery? Was there a solution other than war?

History
1 answer:
Assoli18 [71]4 years ago
3 0
The US had many attempts at compromise with varying levels of sucess before the Civil War. However, when Lincoln was elected president (on the platform of stopping the expansion of slavery), the South lost hope and seceded. 
There is always a solution other than war, however, in this case, war had been a looming possibility for quite some time, and compromise probably would've only pushed the war back a year or two.
Hope this helps :)

The WPB or War Production Board set the products that would be needed for war and they determined their pricing.

So I agree with you, the answer is A.

But I must admit I was a bit iffy between A and D but I'd still say that A is a better choice.


Hope this helped
