Well, honey, those states took their sweet time joining the Confederacy because they were playing hard to get. They were testing the waters, seeing which side had the better snacks, you know?

The secession of these states and the subsequent attack on Fort Sumter by Confederate forces in April 1861 ultimately led to the outbreak of war.
