Answer 1

From your question, I take it that you are studying the Civil War and why some southern politicians wanted to begin their own country. I don't know what politician the question is referring to, but most southern politicians wanted to leave the union because they wanted to keep their slaves and hated northerners. The term "severing from the union" refers to people who wanted leave the United States and form the Confederacy.

 

I think you could probably use some tutoring help with your American History. Send me a message on Wyzant, and we can set something up so that you can understand this stuff better.
