The North, particularly the Union states, largely opposed secession during the Civil War era. Many Northerners believed that secession threatened the unity of the nation and the principles of democracy. While some individuals and groups in the North had sympathetic views towards the South, the prevailing sentiment was to preserve the Union and oppose any attempts at secession. The conflict ultimately escalated into a war aimed at maintaining national unity.
