Answer:
Slavery shaped both economic and political system of the United States until the abolishment of slavery with the adoption of the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution on December 6, 1865.
Answer: 3. When Republic American Lincoln won election as president in November 1860, many Southerners believed that their way of life was in danger. Rather then wait for any attempt by Lincoln to end slavery, they acted. By the end of January 1861, South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana had all seceded from the United States. After being sworn in as president, Lincoln refused to accept any resolution that would result in Southern secession from the Union. This led to civil war.
4. Texans also faced the question of weather to secede. Many Texans urged Governor Sam Houston to call for a convention to discuss the question. Although, Houston was devoted to the Union after witnessing the bloodshed in the fight for Texas independence, Houston thought it would be unwise to enter a war that he believed the Southerners states could not win. Hoping that the situation would would calm down, he refused to call the meeting. (He disagreed with the Southerners)
5. President Lincoln offered to send troops to keep Houston in office. However, Houston knew that such an action would lead violence and declined the offer. (Meaning the supporters would have gotten violent.)
6. He warned of a war that the South would lose.
