So then the war was indeed caused, in essence, by slavery...

I must respectfully disagree.

We had slavery for decades without war.

The hostilities commenced when the South seceded.

Hence, secession caused the war, not slavery.

Do you think war would have resulted had the South kept slavery but not seceded? If so, what would have been the trigger?
