The correct answer would be D) They made the maintenance of slavery a key political issue.

The impact that slavery beliefs had on the politics of the South prior to the Civil War was that they made the maintenance of slavery a key political issue.

Before the American Civil War, the industry of slavery represented the foundation of the economy for the southern states. Indeed, the South economy depended on slaves that worked for long hours under the sun in the large southern plantations. Landlords exploited them to produce the kinds of crops that needed to be traded and exported to Europe.

That is why southerners made slavery their main flag and the priority, in total opposition to the northerner's view. For that reason, slavery was a key political issue in the southern agenda.
