A number of Southerners insist on calling the Civil War "The War Between The States." In his inaugural address, Lincoln requested the states make their militias available to the United States Army. At that point the states had to choose whether or not to make their militias available to the Union Army or the Confederate Army. Many Southerners refer to that event. The people living in the Southern Mountains and throughout much of the South sided with the Union and fought for the Union. One of the Union's greatest generals, General Thomas, was a southerner. Another of the Union's greatest generals, General Sherman, had lived much of his life in the south. The governor of Texas, Sam Houston, sided with the Union. It was a civil war.
Southerners favored the annexation of Texas, but Northerners objected that Texas would add another slave state to the Union.
There were 23 states that fought on the side of the Union during the Civil War.
How many southerners owned 20 or more slaves
3 billion states fought for the union negative 1 million fought for the south
Many pro-Union Southerners kept the North informed of supply caches to provide targets for the Northern army. In addition, these Southerners withheld financial support to the South.
The US Civil war did not involve communists. It was a war between the Northerners (Union) of the United States and the Southerners (the Confederacy)
80 union soldiers
Southerners called for states' rights and the preservation of the institution of slavery to protect their right to own slaves. They argued that the federal government should not interfere with the laws of individual states regarding slavery.
