Lets consider a past where Slavery as an issue is marganlised. Either the Anti-Slavery movements fails to catch momentum. The issue of slavery is still very much there, but replaced by something else.

What other causes could have been the origin of the US Civil War? I know a lot of people call the war as a war of state vs federal rights. A lot of this however boils down to the issue of slavery. My WIC is if Slavery had either been less of a hot issue, or already addressed before the war, what other issue could have caused the war?
