Unfortunately, slavery was a vital institution for the economic well being of the South. Whenever the issue of slavery came up during the drafting of the Constitution, arguments between North and South arose, which was one of the precursors to the Civil War. The Missouri Compromise, the 2/3 Compromise, both dealt with the issue of slavery and how far north it could extend. Southerners referred to it as a "necessary evil", a bad thing, but nevertheless it was vital to the South's economy, and also the nation as a whole.

Other the usual (England, Iraq war, etc.), the only major issue I can think of is the fact that Scottish pareliment's roof almost caved in.\n\nBelow are some newspaper sites. The local internet news is always a good place to check for a countries' current concerns and issues.

There are so many. The signing of the Constitution of course, but if the Union hadn't won the Civil War, things would definitely be different. Those are the ones I thought of right away.

A extended / bloddy conflict between two peoples.  Usually due to extreme differences of opinions by representative leaders and/or the people of the respective nations.  Sometimes influenced by greed, power, hatred, jealousy, pride.

I think here in Michigan the biggest issue is whether we are going to allow a person to buy the office of Governor. I think restoring checks and balance to the federal government is also important. Dove hunting has become an issue as well as equal rights.

The battle of Chicamauga in the Civil War.\n\nhttp://ngeorgia.com/history/chickam.html\n\nBy the way, if you didn't have time to look it up yourself, then how did you have time to ask this question, and then wait for an answer for it.  Sounds like someone needs to get their priorities straightened out.

(whoever answered Gettysburg missed the boat by about eighty years)\n\nIt's a toss-up.  The battle of Trenton, when Washington crossed the Delaware on Christmas Eve 1776 to capture the Hessian camp, could be considered the most important because almost all of the entire Continental Army was about to go home (their enlistment period expired at the end of the year), and the win breathed new life into our army, which had been on the run for over three months.\n\nThe other choice is the battle of Saratoga, in October 1777.  We forced the surrender of a major British army (c. 8000 men, under "Gentleman Johnny" Burgoyne) and when the news of this reached Europe, France agreed to a formal alliance--which took a lot of pressure off the colonies as the British considered the French their primary enemy from mid-1778 on.\n\nGiven the two, I'd pick Trenton.  The army might have disappeared if not for George Washington's victories there and at Princeton (3 Jan 1777).

Find a common goal to work toward, such as improving the conditions of farms along the borders.\nBribes. This sounds like something bad to most Western ideologies, but in many parts of the world, they are a part of life, like wedding gifts and dowry. \n\nFirst priority should be an objective view of the dispute. Possibly a mediator from a mutually respected country.

The causes of the war were a complex series of events, including slavery, that began long before the first shot was fired. Competing nationalisms, political turmoil, the definition of freedom, the preservation of the Union, the fate of slavery and the structure of our society and economy could all be listed as significant contributing factors in America's bloodiest conflict.\n\nFor more info visit the link below.\n\nAll the best!

This is going to be just a quick summary...\nFor the most part, it was not all about slavery. The states North of the Mason-Dixon line were content with slavery in the South...the problem was the "Westward Expansion." The North wanted the new states to be free from slavery, whereas the South wanted those states to be open to slavery. There were a few compromises made years before the actual war began, however, those obviously did not work. On December 20, 1860, South Carolina announced it's leave from the Union...Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas followed. \nOn February 4th, 1861, the Confederate States of America was formed with Jefferson Davis as the president. A new constitution was drawn up. Key differences were:\n*The president and vice president were elected for six year terms whereas the North had only four years. \n*The protection of slavery in new territories was given. \n*No slave trade with Africa\n*President Davis could take a loan for $15 million for the creation of a military force of 100,000. \nPresident Davis was inaugurated February 18, 1861. \n\nPresident Lincoln for the Union said, "Physically speaking, we cannot separate. We cannot remove our respective sections from each other, nor build an impassable wall between them. A husband and wife may be divorced and go out of the presence and beyond the reach of each other, but the different parts of our country cannot do this. They cannot but remain face and face, and intercourse, either amicable or hostile, must continue between them. Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after seperation than before? Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws? Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?Suppose you go to war, you cannot fight always; and when, after much loss on both sides, and no gain on either, you cease fighting, the identical old quesetions as to terms of intercourse are again upon you. In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you. You can have no conflict without being yourselves the aggressors. You have no oath registered in heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to 'preserve, protect, and defend' it..." (Page 8)\nThe first shots of the Civil War were fired on April 12th, 1861 at Ft. Sumter, South Carolina. The fight lasted for thirty-four hours, and ended by the North surrendering. The war continued until April of 1865. \nAfter it was all said and done, most of the South was destroyed and the loss of lives on both ends, are up to this day, only an estimate (over 100,000). It is said, the number of Yanks and Rebels who died are greater than the loss of American lives in both World Wars, the Korean War, and the Vietiman War...all combined.\n\nI hope this has been helpful to you.

Wiley\n-"The Life of Billy Yank" by Bell I. Wiley\n-"Embattled Courage" by Gerald F. Linderman\n-"The Civil War: Strange & Fascinating Facts" by Burke Davis

The War of 1812's sea warfare was significant in two main fronts: Niagra and the Blockade of the Atlantic.  Brittain also played a small, but ironic, role.  There is a lot of detail into the Niagra conflict and should be researched indepth on your own. Read Carl Benn's The War of 1812 and various articles in the Madison Presidential Library.

I can only imagine that whatever mediation there was, if any, was done by the clergy and lay clergy.  I would check the diaries of clergymen in the colonial era.
