History is kind to the victors. The history books are also written by the victors. Believing in slavery was a small part of the whole thing. Many Southerners did NOT beleive in slavery, and kept no slaves. Many Northerners DID believe in slavery and did keep slaves. Like any civil war, there were many issues, and many people chose one of those issues - in this case, slavery - as a rallying point. The civil war was terrible, cruel to both sides, and many good people lost their lives. Neither side was truely right, or wrong.
