West Virginia was a part of Virginia until after the Civil War started, so technically at the start of the war what would become West Virginia was in the Confederacy. However, West Virginia separated itself form Virginia to join the Union as a free state, so West Virginia was aligned with the North after it came to exist as a separate political entity from Virginia.
There is no official state food but milk is the state beverage.
The western counties of Virginia broke away, and formed West Virginia.
There are no national PARKS in West Virginia, but there are some lovely areas administered by the National Parks Service. Also some nice area within national forests, as well as state parks.
West Virginia was once part of Virginia. When Virginia declared secession from the United States to become part of the Confederacy, the counties in northwestern Virginia voted to secede from Virginia and remain loyal to the United States. That area of Virginia became West Virginia. West Virginia became the 35th U.S. state on June 20, 1863.
West Virginia is the Mountain State, so with mountains come valleys. Pretty much all the rivers that come through the state are in a valley, such as the Kanawha Valley and the Greenbrier Valley, and the New River Valley.
West Virginia was the only stat to be formed through secession. Some Virginians didn't want to join the Confederacy, so they split off from the rest of Virginia to form a new state: West Virginia (which of course remained in the Union.)
