Are you Yankee or Rebel? Why didnt Lincoln just let the south go? - TopicsExpress



          

Are you Yankee or Rebel? Why didnt Lincoln just let the south go? According to the constitution (article 10) every state has the right to secede. Eleven states did secede! Was it legal for them to be forced back into the union? It would have been painless to let it be. New England had threatened to leave the U.S. many times before 1860. There are lots of sensible, scientific ways to define regional areas. The war between the regions continues. The republic form of government wasnt designed for so many people. But, ever since the civil war secession has not been possible. My only reasons for this are physical: security and imperialism.
