Hmm, one wonders what a non-ACW USA would be like... If it doesn't happen at all in the 19th century...?

How about in 1821 during the Maine-Missouri compromise, if this balance hand't been struck by the competing sectional interests ? Or in 1833 during the Nullification Crisis ? BTW, what chain of events would precipitate a CW in 1783 ?
