While many still debate the causes of the Civil War, author James McPherson said that, "The Civil War started because of uncompromising differences between the free and slave states over the power of the national government to prohibit slavery in the territories that had not yet become states. When Abraham Lincoln won the election in 1860 as the first Republican president on a platform pledging to keep slavery out of the territories, seven slave states in the deep South seceded and formed a new nation, the Confederate States of America. The incoming Lincoln administration and most of the Northern people refused to recognize the legitimacy of secession. They feared that it would discredit democracy and create a fatal precedent that would eventually fragment the no-longer United States into several small, squabbling countries."

How did the free enterprise system most encourage American economic growth in the 1800's?
natulia [17]

<u>Answer</u>:

The free enterprise system encouraged the American economic growth in the 1800's by gaining wealth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The Free Enterprise system led to the rise of industries. The United States government took a different approach to regulate its business. This approach was called free enterprise. This also eventually led to technological innovations.  

The main motto of this system was "Let people do as they choose". Supporters of free enterprise system believed that the government rather than interfering in the economy, should protect their private property rights and maintain peace.  

The British largely permitted this as it was capable of bringing wealth in the country and their North American colonies would develop. Thus, large amount of availability of labor, natural resources like coal, iron and the government policies help the rise of industries during late 1800s.
