HALP!!! 50 POINTS PLEASE HELP ME. Summarize the significance of the state's rights issue on the Civil War. must be 150+ words
bulgar [2K]

They decided that in order to keep the North from using the federal government to abolish slavery, they would weaken the federal government. Thus the concept of State’s rights was used as an argument for Southern leaders and politicians.
