The War Between the States, better known as the US Civil War began in 1861. The last state to secede before the surrender of Fort Sumter was Texas in February of 1861. After Fort Sumter, Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas and North Carolina seceded. To many people the attack on Fort Sumter was an act of rebellion. There was no way for anyone to predict it would be called a war at that time.
