Answer 1

Answer: B. confederation

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the outbreak of the Civil War, the Confederate states based their economy on slave labor. Precisely because of the Confederacy and the Union's opposing views, the Confederacy will secede from the state. Differences in attitudes towards slavery will be one of the critical factors that led to the war.
