What does secede mean and which state was the first to threaten this and why?

To secede means to formally withdraw from a political union or organization, particularly a nation. The first state to threaten secession was South Carolina in 1860, in response to the election of Abraham Lincoln, whom they viewed as a threat to the institution of slavery. This action was a precursor to the Civil War, as South Carolina believed that their rights and way of life were under attack.
