The division of the United States into two federations of equal force was decided long before the civil war by the high financial power of Europe. “These bankers were afraid that the United States, if they remained in one block and as one nation, would attain economical and financial independence, which would upset their financial domination over the world. “The voice of the Rothschilds predominated. They foresaw the tremendous booty if they could substitute two feeble democracies, indebted to the financiers, to the vigorous Republic, confident and self-providing. “Therefore they started their emissaries in order to exploit the question of slavery and thus dig an abyss between the two parts of the Republic.” — Otto von Bismarck, 1876
