Why the War Came 1a. The Northerners thought that slavery was responsible for the ?backwardness? of the South. They viewed themselves as equal free men and the Southerners were just lazy and uninstructed. The Southerners were beginning to believe that all Northerners were abolitionists, and that they had lost sight of basic American values. 1b. Both sides believed that slavery had to either expand or die. There was no in between. 1c. Donald said that the issue of slavery in the territories was just a surrogate because it wasn't the real dividing issue. It was other things such as stereotypes or the South unifying with itself. 1d.

Megan: Our goal with our Reconstruction plans was to simply find a compromise between the Radical Republicans? plans and Johnson?s plans. We aimed to find the middle ground so that Reconstruction would not only be executed as efficiently as possible, but so that the Northerners would not feel like they fought the war in vain or for a lost cause. African Americans? rights would further be ensured and Southerners woud be able to let go of their former way of life.
