The root cause of the American Civil War is perhaps the most controversial topic in American history. Even before the war was over, scholars in the North and South began to analyze and interpret the reasons behind the bloodshed.
The scholars immediately disagreed over the causes of the war and disagreement persists today. Many maintain that the primary cause of the war was the Southern states’ desire to preserve the institution of slavery. Others minimize slavery and point to other factors, such as taxation or the principle of States' Rights.
In 2011, at the outset of the sesquicentennial, a Pew Research Center poll found that Americans were significantly divided on the issue, with 48% saying the war was "mainly about states' rights," 38% saying the war was "mainly about slavery," with the remainder answering "both equally" or "neither/don't know."

Answer:
Correct answer is Spain abandoned its territorial claims on lands north of Florida and east of the Mississippi.
Explanation:
First option is wrong because there is no territory south of Florida that was an issue between two countries.
Second one also is wrong because Spain couldn't claim territories to the North of Florida, or west of New Orleans, as they were not part of the dispute and were American territories.
Third option is correct as the Spaniards dropped claims on all territories east of Mississippi, without Florida, of course.
Fourth option is wrong as New Orleans remained in the hands of Spain.
