A general callout box for this map of the southern part of the U.S. notes: Using county-level data, this map shows areas that voted for and against secession or were closely divided in their views. For most states, the map reflects voters’ choice of pro-or anti-secession delegates to state conventions. In Virginia and Texas, voters directly ratified secession ordinances; in Tennessee, they ratified an act of the state legislature. The map shows orange border states of Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware with a callout box that notes: The states colored orange practiced slavery before and during the Civil War but did not secede from the Union. Based on the chapter narrative, what factors influenced voters in each state? What might have led 22 counties in northwestern Virginia to vote largely against secession, as detailed here, and to secede and form West Virginia in order to stay in the Union? A third callout box points to North Carolina and notes: The numbers show the chronological sequence of secession of the Confederate states. Did a state’s place in the sequence reflect the unanimity of its vote? The map key shows green area as 'For Secession' (this is the majority of the states on this map); pink areas as 'Against secession' (these are sprinkled in most states, with a majority in northern Alabama and eastern Tennessee); purple areas as 'Delegation divided (the majority of these areas are on the east coast and central swamp area of Florida, central Georgia, and central Mississippi) '; and off-white area as 'No returns'' (mostly western Texas). The Northern limit of secession before Fort Sumter is drawn as a solid line running from above South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana to Texas. The Northern limit of secession after Fort Sumter is shown as a dotted line to the north of Virginia, Tennessee, and Arkansas. The order of secession is: (1) South Carolina, Dec. 20, 1860; (2) Mississippi, Jan. 9, 1861; (3) Florida, Jan. 10, 1861; (4) Alabama, Jan. 11, 1861; (5) Georgia, Jan. 19, 1861; (6) Louisiana, Jan. 26, 1861; (7) Texas, Feb. 1, 1861; (8) Virginia, April 17, 1861; (9) Arkansas, May 6, 1861; (10) North Carolina, May 20, 1861; and (11) Tennessee, June 8, 1861.
