Why did the Kentucky cease being neutral?

Kentucky ceased being neutral during the Civil War due to increasing pressures from both Union and Confederate forces. The state's strategic location made it vital for control of the Ohio River and surrounding territories. In 1861, after Confederate forces invaded, the state government declared allegiance to the Union, ultimately leading to significant military engagements within its borders. This shift reflected the growing divide in loyalties among its citizens and the influence of national political dynamics.
