Hi! I believe I have an answer. I think the topic is Civil War.

The Northerners opposed slavery, and the Southerners supported it. They wanted slavery so that they can make money, and they would loose their jobs if they abolished it.

I hope that helps!

Northerners wanted abolition of slavery all together, however if they abolished slavery all together the south’s argument was that it would destroy their economy.
