Answer:

Instead of coming to terms with each other in a suitable fashion, sectionalism drove each person to be "a member of their state", instead of being a "american". This led to conflicting interests, which boiled down to war. Each person went to war for reasons of their state, instead of what Lincoln wanted, the preservation of the Union.
