First, while the word probably does sound like "succeed" (which means to do well), the word you want is "secede" (which means to withdraw from or remove oneself from). There were eleven southern states that left the Union and formed the Confederate States of America during the Civil War. The first of them was South Carolina in 1860, followed by Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
