Geographic isolation and different living conditions.
Explanation:
Both the Neanderthal and the Homo sapiens shared the same ancestor, the Homo erectus. The Homo erectus managed to spread from Africa to Eurasia. The populations started to become geographically isolated from each other, and over time this caused speciation.
The Homo erectus from the far East, with the one from Europe, or the one from Africa, didn't had contact. This was due to big distance and natural barriers. Gradually this species was evolving, and because of the different living conditions and the geographic isolation at different places it started to develop different characteristics. This has led to evolution of different species over time, with the Neanderthal evolving in Eurasia, as well as the Denisovan Man, while in Africa it was the Homo sapiens that emerged.

Explanation:
Lincoln-Douglas debates, series of seven debates between the Democratic senator Stephen Douglas and Lincoln Abraham.
Lincoln and Douglas were not simply campaigning for themselves but also for their respective political parties. The main focus of these debates was slavery and its influence on American politics and society—specifically the slave power, popular sovereignty, race equality, emancipation.
Lincoln, an obscure former state representative, argues that the nation would eventually encompass all slave states or all free states, and nothing in between. He cites the end of the Missouri Compromise and the Dred Scott decision as evidence that slavery is spreading into the Northern states.
Lincoln thought that the national government should ban slavery from expanding into new territories while Douglas thought popular sovereignty should decide whether the territories wanted slavery or not.
