And I'll ask again: What rights were the seceding states so adamant
about keeping that they were willing to fight a war in an attempt to
preserve them?


From the Southern point of view the North was interfering with the Southern
lifestyle. Folks take that real serious down here.

The North was applying taxes to Southern goods, the North was sending
abolitionists down South to stir up the blacks into insurection.

Basically the South saw the North as interfering in what they had no
business in.

And to this day. The southerners hated Lincoln. And that was the catalist
to kick it all off.

Jim, you need to come down here a bit, you would understand a bit more.
