Prior to the U.S. Civil War, the southern states had slavery and the northern states did not. However, not all of the slave states joined the Confederacy. Specifically, Maryland and Delaware were slave states but stayed in the Union.
Also, if you go back to the 1700's, there was slavery even in some of the northern colonies and then northern states. For example, New York did not abolish slavery until 1799, and New Jersey not until 1804.
