In General Wheelers own words, "this terrible catastrophe [sinking of the Maine] though not the cause of the outbreak of hostilities, certainly hastened the action of Congress in its declaration of war against Spain." According to Wheeler the Spains actions in Cuba were already leading to war between Spain and the US. The sinking of the Maine was the final straw that decided the congress to vote for war. But war would have come without the sinking of the Maine.

Answer:

The American Constitution and the Constitution of the Confederancy were surprisingly similar in content, but one big difference was that the Constitution of the Confederacy respected, promoted, and defended the institution of slavery on the basis that races are unequal, while the U.S. Constitution, still lacking the Thirteenth Amendment, did not explicitely promote or defend Slavery.
