not in the slightest
You have already stated that succession caused the war(Which I stated as well)
If you believe this, then what were the causes of succession? Well the states themselves stated this in their declarations of causes. And those causes were the issue of slavery

States' right to self-determination/self-governance. Perhaps that was epitomized by the glaring example of slavery. It may be a subtle distinction, but an important one. But, there were other disputes. They were long-standing and, in the end, could only have been resolved by war. It was a fundamental disagreement between Republicanism and Democracy - we're still somewhere in the middle, but the conflict pushed us, hard, in the direction of Democracy, for better or worse.
