If we has the same lesser power in the federal govt right now as we did in mid 1860 we would split into 5 or more nations.

I don't think you understand the deep divides in 1800s America. Even for those that identified with either the North or South. Most regions were made-up of immigrants who formed their own cultures. There were no "white people" the way we think of it now. The Irish were treated very poorly. Italians were treated very poorly. Nordic immigrants were highly segregated. German Immigrants, Spanish Immigrants and British immigrants were not commingling.

It's easy enough to make this point if we stick to north and south. But that's not the half of it. But for the sake of North and South:

Sectionalism in 1800s America refers to the different lifestyles, social structures, customs, and political values of the North and the South. It increased steadily in 1800–1850 as the North industrialized, urbanized and built prosperous factories, while the deep South concentrated on plantation agriculture based on slave labor, together with subsistence farming for poor whites who owned no slaves. Southerners defended slavery in part by claiming that Northern factory workers toiled under worse conditions and were not cared for by their employers. Defenders of slavery referred to factory workers as the "white slaves of the North".
