Re: Anthropomorphie mal placée

Bon ca m'a enerve, donc j'ai prit a peu près 2 minutes pour taper "American civil war" dans google, et tomber sur ca https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War

Largely as a result of the long-standing controversy over the enslavement of blacks, war broke out in April 1861, when secessionist forces attacked Fort Sumter in South Carolina, shortly after United States President Abraham Lincoln was inaugurated. The loyalists of the Union in the North proclaimed support for the Constitution. They faced secessionists of the Confederate States in the South, who advocated for states' rights to uphold slavery.

Et

Slavery was a major cause of disunion.[27] Although there were opposing views even in the Union States,[28][29] most northern soldiers were largely indifferent on the subject of slavery,[30] while Confederates fought the war largely to protect a southern society of which slavery was an integral part.

Plus loin

Southern whites believed that the emancipation of slaves would destroy the South's economy, due to the large amount of capital invested in slaves and fears of integrating the ex-slave black population.[34] In particular, southerners feared a repeat of "the horrors of Santo Domingo", in which nearly all white people – including men, women, children, and even many sympathetic to abolition – were killed after the successful slave revolt in Haiti.

Et si c'était pas clair

Southern leaders feared that Lincoln would stop the expansion of slavery and put it on a course toward extinction.

Et une petite perle:

The slave states, which had already become a minority in the House of Representatives, were now facing a future as a perpetual minority in the Senate and Electoral College against an increasingly powerful North.

OH THE IRONY!!!
