However, those things don 't matter in 25 years Nikki Haley will not be governor of the great state of South Carolina and Trump will be 94 years old assuming he is still alive. Here is what society needs in this persons perspective and why. First Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi need to peacefully secede from the union and form a sovereign nation.

The reason being nobody save the insane, naive and outright evil want war. War cost money, supplies and lives and that last one is not i repeat not replaceable. The secession of those thirteen states will allow its citizens to own guns at will, allow parents to control their children 's education, allow us to return to the gold standard and to set up a government with unpaid and term limited leaders. We can live our lives the way we see fit and enjoy all the benefits of controlling our lives without federal intervention. The other states can have all the gun control, abortion clinics, gay marriage and government run healthcare they want.

As stated in Document 5, “Many Southerners favored secession as part of the idea that the states have rights and powers which the federal government cannot legally deny. The supporters of states’ rights held that the national government was a league of independent states, any of which had the right to secede”. This shows how Southerners believed that they had every right to secede. They wanted to ensure that they lived in a country in which they would be free to live the way they wanted to. The federal government was unable to prevent this, since each state has inalienable rights and powers.

The North had been pressuring the South for years at this point, but it had not yet done anything significant enough for their actions to be considered offensive. The governments of the southern states had begun to assemble an army. In South Carolina “the state legislature prepared to arm a defense force of 10,000 men” (Dew, 25). The thought of secession was one not focused upon the defence of the confederate state, rather the focus was upon the revolutionary aspect of it. In the document, the “Declaration of the Immediate Causes Which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina from the Federal Union,” they compare their leaving the union to the thirteen colonies leaving the control of the British Crown.

So is secession of the states right? Is this what needs to be done in order to find some peace between the states? After looking at how the North and South are becoming more and more diverse and how much strife there is between the two territories, Yes, I do believe that secession needs to take place in order for there to be some settlement in the disagreements taking place. As one can see, all the states are not going to be able to come to one conclusion about the use of slaves, so if the states can form their own government aside from the union, it can become a

In February 1861, a new government was on the horizon in the United States, known as the Confederate States of America. Composed of seven states from the South, this new government looked to separate from a union that they felt was tipping in power towards those who wanted to threaten the rights of the South, especially slavery. Similarly, in early 1775, colonists were preparing for revolution against a power that they felt oppressed their rights and wanted to take away their liberties. However, the Civil War was a not a complete representation of a second American Revolution. The Civil War was more than an unsatisfied party rebelling against a larger power, but a clash between two vastly different ways of life.

The Civil War, while largely believed to be largely about slavery it appears to me that state’s right played just as an important role in the actual cause and continuance of the war. The division of the states and their prosperity, industry, education and representation in Congress divided this country, much as it is today.
