The Brits love to say they ended slavery without a war - which is true, but that was because the slaves were kept in line by the British Military. Not so with the USA. We had institutions down south, like the Citadel, that taught military tactics to quell slave uprisings, so we did it ourselves, whereas the Brits, etc., used their military. They did compensate for slaves which was finally paid off in 2015. The slaves were apprenticed for 4-6 years, but at least no war.
