Sagot :

Souther support for States right often because this actually help them from the government about to banning slave.

The correct answer is 1) State rights.

Before the start of the Civil War, many Southern political leaders supported State rights.

The Southern states had many differences with the Northern states and the US government. The Southern states wanted more liberties and rights because they thought their situation was different and their economy depended so much on slavery to work in large plantations to produce the cash crops needed to trade and export to England. From that idea of more State rights, some states such as South Carolina wanted to secede from the Union.
