Template:Editnotices/Page/Talk:Lost Cause of the Confederacy
 | The Confederate states seceded from the Union primarily to protect slavery. This is the consensus of historians, scholars and other reliable sources, and also of the editors of this talk page, where the issue has been discussed many times. Please see the talk page archives.Please do not request that "slavery" be demoted or removed from the causes of the war. Your request will be denied, and you may be blocked from editing if you persist in doing so. |
