Because those states were divided in pro and anti-Confederate opinion, and voted (sometimes narrowly) against secession.
Yes and no. Even though there was institutional slavery, but there was discrimination even in the north. Exslaves also had to be careful because under Fugitive laws they could be considered property and returned to the plantation owners.
Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and West Virginia (1863). NEW RESPONDENT Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware. The counties of West Virginia didn't remain neutral but actively took part to the conflict since its early stage, though they were not recognized as a Union State until 1863.
They could get more representation in the House that way, even though otherwise slaves were not considered people but were just property.
Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, Delaware. Ironically, slavery (but not slave-trading) was still lawful in the District of Columbia, though there were very few slaves there. Also, there was the new state of West Virginia, created in mid-war when the Western counties of Virginia seceded from Virginia, and offered their loyalty to the Union. The new state was not entirely slave-free.

None of the Border States seceded even though they were slave states.
Borders do not secede though some states did.
The Northern States and Canada, but I don't know what the Northern States are though!

Missouri, Kentucky, Delaware and Maryland were border states that remained in the union but still allowed slavery. The state legislatures of Kentucky, Delaware and Maryland voted to remain. Missouri voted to leave the union but union troops stormed the state capital and installed a pro union government to insure they remained with the union. Prior to the Emancipation Proclamation captured slaves were returned to their masters in Missouri, Kentucky, Delaware and Maryland and in fact there are records of the Union Army conducting slave auctions in the border states.
The answer you're probably looking for is Washington, Oregon, and California, which are the states in the conterminous US that border the Pacific Ocean ... though Alaska and Hawaii are further west.
because he issued the Emancipation Proclaimation that applied to slave states that left the Union. he wanted the border states to stay loyal to the Union and besides.... the border states never did secession anyways. hope this helps! :)
The strength of the Union is what caused the three border states to remain in the Union. The states had to take a look at the fighting sides and decide which they felt would benefit them the most at the end of the war.
The Emancipation Proclamation of 1863 proclaimed for all states rebelling to emancipate/free slaves. This Proclamation did not however affect the slavery of the states that were loyal to the Union, though they were still eventually freed. The Confederacy did not release their slaves however upon hearing this. Though when the slaves heard, some of them fled to the Union.
To get both the northern and southern states to agree to it. The southern states wanted slaves counted in the population for determining representation in Congress (even though slaves couldn't vote). The northern states wanted them excluded.
Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, and Nebraska border Iowa. no oceans do though.
