They believed that the states entered the union of their own free will, and were able to leave the union of their own free will, like a divorce. Needless to say, unionists disagreed.
Delaware (perhaps the most overlooked border state), Kentucky, Maryland and Missouri were the border states that did not secede from the Union.

===================== Point 7: Right of Secession There should be right to secede from the Federation. ====================== We should take a positive view of the "right to secede" initiative, which is worth considering despite its affirmation in Point 7 which speaks of the Sabahan and Sarawakian rights to secede from the Federation of Malaysia This is so because "the use [by Point 7] of the word ''should' (as opposed to the word 'shall,' for example) turns the option of "RIGHT TO SECEDE" into a mere recommendation." In short, if we take consideration of the above arguments on the reading of POINT 7, the FEDERATION OF MALAYSIA should politely been told.
There was no official way that a state could secede, so the question was tested by the Civil War. That war determined that a state could not secede. There is a possible exception to this, as many people believe the Constitution of the State of Vermont retains the right for that state to secede.
