Response
Question 4:
Brief Explanations

Lincoln was from the Republican Party, which opposed the expansion of slavery. Southern states relied on slavery for their agrarian economy (like cotton plantations) and feared Lincoln's election would lead to restrictions or abolition of slavery, threatening their economic and social system. Also, they saw it as a sign that their interests (especially regarding slavery) would be ignored by the federal government, so they left to preserve slavery and their perceived rights to self - govern on this issue.

Brief Explanations

For the South, "state's rights" meant the right of individual states to make decisions independent of the federal government, especially regarding slavery. They believed states should have the power to decide whether to allow slavery within their borders, and that the federal government should not impose anti - slavery policies on them. It was also about the right to secede from the Union if they felt the federal government was violating their perceived state - level rights, especially related to maintaining the institution of slavery.

Answer:

The election of Lincoln caused Southern states to leave the Union because Lincoln was a Republican who opposed the expansion of slavery. The Southern economy was heavily reliant on slavery (e.g., for cotton production), and they feared Lincoln would restrict or abolish slavery, threatening their economic and social order. They also believed their interests (especially regarding slavery) would be sidelined by the federal government, so they seceded to preserve slavery and their idea of self - governance on this matter.
