Some of the primary reasons for Ottoman decline were:
<span>The Rapid Demise of the Safavid Empire. Abbas I, fearing plots, had removed all suitable heirs. The succession of a weak grandson began a process of dynastic decline. Internal strife and foreign invasions shook the state. In 1772 Isfahan fell to Afghani invaders. An adventurer, Nadir Khan Afshar, emerged from the following turmoil as shah in 1736, but his dynasty and its successors were unable to restore imperial authority.</span>
Aurangzeb and the Fall of the Empire <span>Aurangzeb was the last great Mughal emperor. Although he brought a larger area under Mughal rule than ever before, his constant wars left the empire dangerously overextended, isolated from its strong Rajput allies, and with a population that was largely opposed to his reign. His last twenty five years were spent fighting in the Deccan in the south, and losing territory to rival states.</span>

Congressional Democrats--The Democratic Party dominated the South and the border states. They were generally in support of the slave system and the right of states to control their own economic system.
The Emancipation Proclamation freed only slaves in the Confederate States where the North had no authority at the time. However, it sets the stage for the 13th amendment (outlawing slavery) and would require Southern states to give up slavery to return to the Union. Northern Democrats believed this would encourage more war and remove all possibility for negotiation. This also created a mission for the war--end slavery. For many in the North this was not their motive.
