Secession in the United States

The states in solid red seceded from the Union to form the Confederate States of America, while the striped states were Border States that remained with the Union

Secession in the United States refers mainly to state secession. It applies to the outbreak of the American Civil War when on December 20, 1860, South Carolina officially declared their secession from the United States.[1] It was followed four months later by the states of Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Louisiana.[1] These initial seven seceding states formed the Confederate States of America based in Montgomery, Alabama.[2] Then, on April 12, 1861, hostilities began at Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina.[3] After this, the states of Virginia (except the northwestern counties), Arkansas, Tennessee, and North Carolina joined the Confederacy.[2] The capital was then moved Richmond, Virginia.[2] The Northern and Border states remained with the Union.
