"No it started because the Confederacy didn't want slavery to get banned"
Not exactly, that was more of a side argument
It was all about the state rights |

"It was all about the state rights"
no behold for i have sources
"For the last ten years we have had numerous and serious causes of complaint against our non-slave-holding confederate States with reference to the subject of African slavery" - declaration of secession, georgia
"Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery" - declaration of secession, mississippi
"But an increasing hostility on the part of the non-slaveholding States to the institution of slavery, has led to a disregard of their obligations, and the laws of the General Government have ceased to effect the objects of the Constitution." - declaration of secession, south carolina
"In all the non-slave-holding States, in violation of that good faith and comity which should exist between entirely distinct nations, the people have formed themselves into a great sectional party, now strong enough in numbers to control the affairs of each of those States, based upon an unnatural feeling of hostility to these Southern States and their beneficent and patriarchal system of African slavery, proclaiming the debasing doctrine of equality of all men, irrespective of race or color-- a doctrine at war with nature, in opposition to the experience of mankind, and in violation of the plainest revelations of Divine Law." - declaration of secession, texas

| No it was about slavery. People just say "states rights" to not make the Confederacy sound bad. It's like denying the Holocaust |
