The Dred Scott Decision was about a slave taken to a free state, which made him feel free since he is on free soil now. This slave takes it all to the Supreme Court, for the court to decide that slaves are property, and cannot be taken away from owners. The owners can also take them anywhere. This caused the Civil War because this demonstrated how the Supreme Court has said that slaves are property, and can be taken anywhere. It is a benefit to the South/slave states since the Supreme Court had sided with them on views. The North/free states are opposed because the Supreme Court now states how slaves can be taken anywhere, even if they are moved to a free state.

John Brown's Raid is about a white man wanting to arm slaves for a revolt/rebellion. He failed to get weapons and got arrested, which made the Southerners fearful. This is a cause of the Civil War because  Southerners became fearful of the people who supported the slaves being free. This caused Southerners to become careful with their slaves, and became fearful of any supporter of the North's beliefs. This made the South believe that any abolitionists would be insane as John Brown.

The Election of 1860 created the Republican party and also introduced "free soil" as a concept for the Northerners. This election was about how slavery should not expand to territories. South Carolina also unanimously voted for the Ordinance of Secession. This is one of the causes of the Civil War because Abraham Lincoln(Republican) won the election, which gained the North power, and caused the South to think about seceding from the Union. This caused the Civil War because it separates both regions by an election based on slavery, and states rights.

The Theory of Secession was about an unanimous vote to secede from the Union. The Federal government should not interfere with SC culture. It feared that Lincoln would outlaw slavery. This is a cause of the Civil War because Secession occurred after the Election of 1860, which Abraham Lincoln won. This made the South fear Lincoln would outlaw slavery. They also feared about the state's rights were being taken away, because of the interference between slavery in the Federal government. The seceding from the Union was about the Southerners wanting to be able to keep their slaves, and not to be interfered with by the government to take them away.
