The Civil War occurred between the Southern and the Northern States primarily on the issue of Slave ownership and the economic consequences of ending slavery.

The economy of the Southern States were based on agriculture, which in turn, was based on cheap slave labor. For the farmers in the south, ending slavery could have meant ending their livelihood and hence, the issue was very dear to them.

On the other hand, the Northern States were more affluent and had a more industrial economy and hence, they could support ending slavery.


Advantages:

The biggest advantage of the Civil War was the subsequent freedom for all slaves across the United States. After the civil war ended it eventually paved the way for a civil rights movement which after a 100 years was able to provide universal suffrage.


Disadvantages:

The huge loss of life could have been avoided. Many women were left widowed and many children were orphaned.

It also left a rift between the northern and southern states, which till this day, sporadically spurs into the public.

What is the main difference between continuity theories of development and stage theories of development?
Slav-nsk [51]

One of the major controversies in developmental psychology centers if development is continuous or discontinuous. Those psychologists who support the continuous view of development suggest that development involves gradual and ongoing changes throughout the life span, with behavior in the earlier stages of development providing the basis of skills and abilities required for the next stages. Not all psychologists, however, agree that development is a continuous process. Some view development as a discontinuous process. They believe development involves distinct and separate stages with different kinds of behavior occurring in each stage. This suggests that the development of certain abilities in each stage, such as specific emotions or ways of thinking, have a definite starting and ending point. However, there is no exact time at which ability can appear or disappears. Although some types of thinking, feeling or behaving may seem to appear suddenly, it is more than likely that this has been developing gradually for some time. Stage theories of development rest on the assumption that development is a discontinuous process involving distinct stages which are characterized by qualitative differences in behavior. They also assume that the structure of the stages is not variable according to each individual, however the time of each stage may vary individually. Stage theories can be contrasted with continuous theories, which posit that development is an incremental process.
