The three Confederate states that bordered Union states were Virginia, Tennessee, and Missouri. Virginia was bordered by Maryland and West Virginia, while Tennessee shared borders with Kentucky and Missouri. Missouri was a border state itself and had both Union and Confederate sympathies. These border states played significant roles in the Civil War due to their strategic locations and divided loyalties.
The first three steps to form the Confederate States of America included the secession of Southern states from the Union, beginning with South Carolina in December 1860. Following secession, these states convened a series of conventions to establish a new government, which led to the formation of a provisional government in February 1861. Finally, the Confederate Constitution was drafted and adopted, officially creating the Confederate States of America.
The Union Army outnumbered the Confederate Army by a great amount, although locally the numbers could favor either side. The Civil War saw over 2.1 million soldiers join the Northern armies, compared to fewer than 800,000 in the South. Ultimately, this disparity allowed Union generals to sustain greater casualties and still prevail. Union States: -Approximately 22 million civilians -3 to 3.5 million males of military age Confederate States: -Approximately 9 million civilians -1/3 of whom were slaves
When the USA split in two, the southern half was called The Confederate States of America, and the northern half was called The United States of America. It was also called the Union during the War.
