Nonseceding counties in Virginia were those that chose to remain loyal to the Union during the American Civil War, despite Virginia's decision to secede from the Union in 1861. These counties, primarily in the northwestern part of the state, opposed secession and actively supported the Union cause. Notably, the region's economic interests and political sentiments often aligned more closely with the North, leading to the eventual formation of West Virginia in 1863, which consisted of many of these nonseceding counties.
