Missouri was a border state during the American Civil War, meaning it was a slave state that did not secede from the Union. While it had a significant pro-Confederate sentiment and several battles were fought within its borders, Missouri officially remained part of the Union throughout the conflict. The state was divided in loyalties, leading to internal strife and conflict among its residents.
