How has the Republican party ended up being a pro-South party when it was...

...initially supported by Lincoln? And what were the major shifts that brought it about ? When did they occur ? I asked my history teacher but he refused to take it because it wasn't part of this year's syllabus. :-(

I don't want to get into a political debate, so please refrain from posting an overly tendentious reply. Thanx in advance for your kind answers !

PS:By the way, I'm not American.
@November is coming: How could I be against something I know almost nothing about ??

Many thanks to you all.
