President Lincoln was opposed to the expansion of slavery in the western territories of the USA. The south felt he wanted to end slavery eventually in the southern states, so they left the union after he was elected. President Lincoln led the fight to bring them back into the union and end slavery in the USA once and for all. He also said that when the southerners come back into the union, it must be forgiveness and treat the southerns as Americans once again.

Abraham Lincoln wasn't exactly someone who liked blacks, contrary to popular belief, in fact he belived that they should go colonize Panama if they were freed
