What caused the final four confederate states to secede from the union in April of 1961?
(It was 1861, of course, not 1961.) After the Confederate firing on the US Army garrison at Fort Sumter, Lincoln was not able to declare war, because Congress did not recognise the Confederacy as a sovereign nation. But he did the next best thing, which was to appeal for volunteer troops to put down a rebellion in some of his own states. To the South, this was belligerent talk, and it swung four states of the Middle-South into joining the Confederacy.

When Fort Sumter surrendered on April 13, 1861, the Confederacy had already been formed. Since at the time only seven states had joined the Confederacy, their flag was quite different from the battle flag later called the Stars and Bars. On April 13, 1861, the Confederate flag was colored red, white and blue. It had three large stripes, red on top, white in the middle and blue at the bottom of the flag. In the upper left hand side was a blue square that had seven white stars ion a circle, representing the seven states of the Confederacy at that time.
