What is the text structure of the following paragraph? The chief and immediate cause of the Civil War was slavery. Southern states, including the 11 states that formed the Confederacy, depended on slavery to support their economy. Southerners used slave labor to produce crops, especially cotton. Although slavery was illegal in the Northern states, only a small proportion of Northerners actively opposed it.

Opponents of slavery were concerned about its expansion, in part because they did not want to compete against slave labor.
